Bob Slav, an ex-member of the Kentucky legisla ture, and one of the principals on the Eversole side, is here from Hazard, the seat of the county and of the War. Judge ComU, the father-in-law of the dead F.veraole leader, ia dead. The leader of the French faction, whose name was Frazer. Fulton French and two others of hia faction have been arrested for his murder, and more trouble will follow. Judge Combs was 70 years old and lived in Hazard. Early on .Sun day morning two weeks ago, ho btepped across the street where young Cush Eversole and two others were talking. A rifle cracked from the cornfield just over the fence and the bullet struck the old man in his breast and he fell. Cush Eversole wheeled and saw a man with a blackened face spring and dash through the cornfield. He says the man was Joe Adkins. At the same time name other Frenches began tiring and shouting from another direction to divert attention from Adkina. Young Cush with several others ran across a little spur and hid themselves in a ravine. Other men with blackened faces soon appeared, who, the Eversoles said, were Ad-iius, Frazar and Jesse Field. As they climbed over a bank. Will Martin, a boy in the Eversole crowd, tired and killed Frazt-r. The other two men es caped but were captured later with Ful ton French in Breathitt county. Adkins is .said to have eeapeL but French and Field are held i fu y are trying to get the county judge to come to Breathitt line and try them, as they ttre afraid to go to Hazard. nly iast Saturday night they received an anonymous letter &aying they would be shot the moment they put foot across the county, line, Judge Corata died in a few hours. He had never taken any part in the feud, though he was a man of wealth and in sympathy witt the Eversoles and had al ways tried to get the Frenches to trial It was his influence that was feared. Ad kins is a noted desperado. Wore than thirty nen hae been killed in this feud in the last half a dozen years. It began witi the killing of the he id of the confederate Gambrills, a strong Breathitt county family, by the union Eversoles dur.ng the war. Soon the Gambrills killed the Eversole leader, and desultory tight ng went on after the war until l5i Then Fulton French came from Virginia to Hazard and taught school and read law with Joe Eversole, the leader of ti e Eversole faction. The Eversoles were the richest and strongest family in the county and they always had a store in Hazard which was the Repub lican Lead' luartars. French rented this store from Joe Eversole for a year and opened with his clerk. Bob May. French and May dis agreed, and May opened just across the street and male his store the Demo cratic headquarters of the town. When French's year was up Eversole sent him word he must novo out. French refused for some reason and on the day the lease expired Eversole drove into town with twenty wagons of goods, moved French into the street, and opened the store the next morning himself. That started the war. The Gambrills took sides with the Frenches against their o!d foes, and May and Eversole, though political enemies, joined their forces, and ia time there were 100 men on each side. Sheriffs, lawyers and judges have been with the Even-oles. French is said to have hired many of his lighters. Many have left Ilazari, for fear of assassina tion, he says.

From an ofiichV newspaper just received here from Haytl it would appear that the president of that disturbed country, Geu. ilippolyte is preparing himself to meet another re bellion and is ready to deal in the most summary mauuer with the prime movers. Here is what the paper, the Moniteur of August S last has to say: "Last Sunday his excellency, the pres ident of the republic in tho presence of some government oliicials and other citi zens, expressed himself as follows." Here follows the full text of the speech, of which the following extracts afford an illustration: "Before I was elected chief of this state I had taken part in the adminial ra tion of affairs of my country. Everybody had recognized in me an honest man. To day some of ihesa parties who aided my promotion appear to tax me with being a thief. It is assuredly a glaring conse quence on their part, because they knew me to be a thief, and having selected me as chief of the nation, they are thieves themselves. The public tranquility must be maintained at any cost, and to effect it there is no sacrifice I would not make. "I have by my side at this present time young devoted men, who, should the op portunity present itself, only need to hear from me to exterminate all those who would have the folly to attack my government I know all that is said, all that is done, hence they fixed the 17th to attack my arms. I shall for my part, be likewise ready as well as other dates. And so much the worse should the at tempt fail. "The example to which I shall treat because I them vill bo terrific, will not remain that dav at the palace- it would be They may to do me as because the it would be impossible, for contrary to temperament, perhaps attempt my life. "I shall not allow them thev did President Carnot, aides-de-camp that are near mo know what will be the penalty should they through neglect allow individuals to ap proach me without giving them orders to that effect. They may even, if they prefer shoot at me with a gua. I an nounce it uovv they have only to try." AN N AKiJOlt HOYS DJtl'N K.

U. aud Reform League have organ ized a crusade against the saloons of the city iu the interest of Letter morals for students. For several years past night has been made hideous in the business section of the town by the carousals of drunken men, of whom it is alleged uni versity students numbered not a few. To stop the sale of liquor the women engaged in the crusade have adopted a ilovel pian. Every evening they will or ganize themselves into small bands and visit every saloon aud hold religious ser vices therein, singing hymns and titter ing prayers. By this means it is hoped to practically drive away all trade from the beer shops and thus force their clos ing from loss of business. CLEVELAND MAY WHITE.

A., says: "I do not think that theso associations, which so ostracize the Catholics from every position of profit and honor, con stitute a permanent or serious danger. "Like the Know Nothing movement they are founded on ignorance and prej udices, which will be dispelled and they will pass away. They will have a bene ficial effect in this way, that they make Catholics more zealous of the defense of their faith, but such movements also in dicate the necessity on our part of being prudent aud moderate and avoiding the the danger, everything which appeals to sectarianism may cause in a mixed coun try like America." l'at ItiUe Xime to Tk'orU.

STATE JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 17, 1894. ZEIGLEBVRECORD. He Makes a Brand New One for Bicjcles. Hides a Mile in the Phenomenal Time cf 1 :50. PACED BY TANDEMS. Goes the Fastest Mile Ever Made on a Bicycle. Sacramento, Cat, Oct. 17. On the 28th of September, John S. Johnson caused a sensation in bicycle circles the world over by riding- a mile at Waltham, Mass., ic the phenomenal time of 1:50 3-5. This wonderful feat was eclipsed in this city yesterday when Otto Zeigler, of aan Jose, covered the mile in 1:50, clipping1 nearly a full second oft tha world's record. As a matter of fact, he did ride the mile in a frac tion over 1:49, but as one of the sev eral watches male 1:50 flat, the judges placed the odicial time at that figure. This mile of young1 Zeigler's is the fastest ever run on a bicycle. It was made at a flying- start, and he was paced by tandem teams, one taking-ii-im to the three- ighths, another to the five-eights and the third pacing him to the finish. The start was a fine one and the quarter was passed in 26 3-5 seconds. The half mile post was passed in the phenomenally fast time of 53 3-5 sec onds. Around tho turn tiie wheel men fairly flew, looking like three orang-e colored balls rolling. .Near the three-quarter pole Delmar and Hamilton were g-itting under way and by the time the others came up they were at their full speed. There was a perfect pickup and the wheel men at the score were fairly trem bling1 with excitement and euthusiastn as the watches ticked off 1:23. Zeigler still had 27 3-5 seconds in which to equal Johnson's record, and there was no reason to fear he would not beat it, for the fresh tandem rid ers were bringing him down the course at a tremeuinus rate of speed. Within about sixty yards of the wire Zeigler, who had been riding- almost on to the heels oi" his pacemakers, could wait no longer, and, f-hooting-to one siJe, he fie v past them and passed un.'.er the wire, as alrea ly stated, in a fraction un.ler 1:50. There is no doubt but that he could have lowered the record fullv two secon Is had the pacemakers been able to lead him. John L Agala Tilting Flht. Phlladri.phu, Oct. 17. John I.

A Bsmarksblj Short Document tonti'Jef" lug the Work Done Durlui the Tear. Washixgtos, Oct. 17. The annual report of Major General Nelson A. Miles, commanding the department of the Missouri, showing the conduct of affairs in that department, is a re markably short document considering the stormy period of interual strife covered by it, But, notwithstanding its brevity, it contains some very terse and significant statements rel ative to the strike. The report begins with the statement that there have been no change of troops in the de partment during- the year, and con tinues as follows: "As in previous years, the troops in the Indian and Oklahoma territories have been occupied durinsr much of their time in removing trespassers from the public lands, in preserving order in the newly settled region and in keeping1 the peace between hostile factions of the semi-civilized Indian tribes. In addition to removing and expelling intruders in the Choctav nation, and from the Osage and Kaw Indian reservations, the troops sta tioned at Forts Reno, Sill and Supply were called on for the purpose of protecting United States mails, guarding- United States bridges and sup porting the United States marshals in making- arrests." The report says in detail that com panies and troops of regulars were concentrated in Chicago "by the or-, ders of the president of the United States to execute the orders and pro cesses of the United States court to prevent the obstruction of the mails and generally to enforce the faithful execution of the laws." General Miles then continues: "The conduct of the troops in restoring or der and confidence where mob vio lence and a reign of terror existed in Chicago was marked by grea t forbear ance, fortitude and excellent dis cipline, and their presence an 1 action here very greatly contributed to the maintenance of civil law, and in my opinion saved this country serious re bellion, when one has been publicly declared to exist by one most respou1 sible for its existence.1 An appendix to the rerort is con tributed by Captain J. M. Lee, Ninth infantry, assistant inspector general, in the shape of a bri.f history of the strike movements at Chicago. IiOSEWATEirS CASE. Jud;e Scott Dal the Authority of Five other District Jadijei. Omaha. N -b., Oct. 17. The unusual scene of one district judge defying the authority of five other judges of the district, s'tting as a court, was witnessed in Omaha, and is likely to provoke some very peculiar situa tions before being settled. The case of Editor Rosewater of tha Bee. who is charged with libel by ex-Sheriff Bennett, to be triel by soma Judge other than Judge C. R. Scott, caused the trouble. On the editor's appeal to the other five juJges they decided to hear the case anl cited the editor to appear at 9 a. m. to-day for trial. When Judge Scott was notified of the judges' decision he declared that the case could not be transferred from the criminal branch of the court. He then ma le an order nullifying the action of the five judges an I ordering Mr. Rosewater to appear before him at 9 a. m. to-day for trial. While, court was in session he said: 'We have now met the crossroads and I do not propose to take either side, but, instead, I am going to trad right in the middle of the road. Here I am. an American citizen t.2 years of age, and stand upon a broad gauge platform that will permit ine to give every man a fair and impartial triiL If I do not want to give Rosewater a fair trial the motion might be ex cused. There is no law to t ike this case off my docket and it will stay there. If there is any monkeying about it, some one is going to be cit- d to appear for contempt, and I think I am pretty good authority on con tempt." EXFOltClNf. A LAW. General Olney Tells hr rj. S. Attorneys Can Not Make Political Speeches. Washington, Oct. 17. The attention of General Attorney Olney was- called to a statement in a telegram from Vinton, Iowa, that Attorney U. S.

A bloody tragedy occurred in this city at 11 o'clock last night, in which George Dixon, an ex-policeman, lost his life at the hands of S. T. Lupe, a wealthy grain dealer. Dixon nad suspected the fidelity of his wife, who was em ployed as a bookkeeper by Lupe at his elevator office. Last night Dixon went to the office where Lupa was sleeping and demanded admission. This was refused, whereupon Dixon attempted to batter down the door. Shooting then commenced and Dixon pitched forward on his face with sev eral bullets in his body, death being instant. When officers arrived Lupe was found in his night clothes with an ugly wound in his right side, from which the blood was pouring in a stream. The affair has created a groat sensation.

PARLIAMENT OF RELIGIONS President Sooner on the Statements of Kx-Secretary of State John VV. Foster. Chicago, Oct. 17. President C. C. Bonney of the World's fair parlia ment of religions, commenting on the report of ex-Secretary of State John W. Foster, after a tour around the world, that the effect of the parlia ment had been disheartening to tha Christian missionaries abroad, said: "Assuming that the first effect is ap parently prejudicial to Christian mis sionaries, I am entirely confident that the outcome of the parliament of religions will be enormously beneficial to the cause of Christian missions, and will indeed finally result in an acknowledgement throughout the whole world of the supremacy of the Christian religion. "The first effect of the new excite- ment will be to create a willingness on the part of the foreign peoples to put their religions in comparison with that of Jesus Christ. This is something that hitherto they have never been willing to do, and every sin-ct-re Christian would hail such a comparison with delight. One thing is almost uniformly admitted. Hence forth Christian missionary work must be conducted with increased ability, learning ani wisdom. We can no longer think that while we need men of a hig-h order of merit for home ser vice, we can be justified in sending those of indifferent ability to what we have been accustomed to call the 'heathen lands.' I therefore expect to see the great missionary societies of the world enlarge and increase their work and adapt it more wisely than has hitherto ever been clone to the actual coudit on of the people to whon they dassre to bring a knowl edge of the divine person and the divine word." AUST1I A LI AN EI NANCES. Minister of Finance Submits His Badgret Sliovrinij a Treasury Surplus. Vienna, Oct. 17. In the lower house of the Austrian reichsrath the minister of finance submitted the "budget estimate for 1S95, showing- a surplus of 2,457.707 florins. The min ister added that the accounts for 1893 showed a surplus of 29,500,01)0 florins. This statement caused a sensation, and was followed by prolonged cheer ing. Continuing, however, the min ister of finance said that 6,0J0,00i) florins must be deducted because tho stock of gold in the treasury had been converted into coin to that amount. The actual surplus, therefore, was 23,500.000 florins. The direct taxes produced 3,260.852 florins and indirect taxes produced 24,651.363 florins above the same taxes in 1892.

SHE RATTLED HBL I For a reporter with but little to write and plenty of time In which to write It there is nothing more pleasant than to dic tate a narrative to a cheerful typewriter, particularly if she be young and have nice soft hair to distract tlie eye and well formed white fingers and be withal ex ceedingly pleasing-, but for a reporter with a long yarn to write and a limited amount of time to finish it things sometimes have a different aspect. Near Printing nouse square Is a type writing office which many newspaper men frequent. A new girl came there one day last week a real nice girl and an excel lent operator but she had never done that Lind of work before. While she was sit ting in the main room upon the afternoon of her first day a newspaper man came bustling in, and "Mrs. J., have you got anybody to take a two column story in a hurry?" Yes, replied the manager. ''Here Is a young lady who has juts come to us. Miss Brown Mr. Smith. You can go Into that corner room." In three minutes the young lady was 6eated at her machine, the newspaper man was sorting out his notes, and the door was closed so as to leave them undisturbed. I "Now, if you will please begin," the newspaper roan said. "'In these days of stern reality and suffering and struggle for existence a romantic episode cornea upon one with tho refreshing delight with which a traveler in a desert beholds an oasis. Clickety-clickety-cllck went the keys, and then "Isn't that lovely! Is it going to be a novel?" The newspaper man looked up in amaze ment, but it was utterly impossible to be angry with such blue eyes regarding him in admiration. "No," ho said. "Please go on. 'In tho monotonous routine of Tombs police court cases, however, there was one yesterday behind which lay a story so romantic and so picturesque that it would almost seem to have been created by a great novelist w ho had striven to excel all his past ef forts. When this had been recorded, and while tho newspaper man was wondering what lie would say next, the young lady, smil ing most radiantly, prattled on in this fashion: "That's just splendid. It sounds like a real novel. Did you ever read 'Clarissa; or, The Forlorn Hope-1' It begins some thing like that, only it isn't so interest ing. Do you know, I never took dictation like that before. The last place I worked in I had nothing to do but copy letters. Oh, dear, wasn't it tiresome, though!" The newspaper man felt Ms collar get ting too small, but after swallowing some thing that seemed to stick in his throat be said as gently as possible: "Won't you please go on? I'm in some what of a hurry. What have you got there?" "Where?" in great surprise. "I mean, please read over what I have dictated." "Oh, how stupid I am! 'In these days of stern reality' how do you pronounce that word in two syllables or three? Thank you 'stern reality and suffer ing' And she read what she had written. Then, just as the newspaper man had set tled back in his chair, determined to dic tate to the end without giving her another opportunity to interrupt hini, she said: "Excuse me, I think my hair is coming down." She went to a little mirror in a corner of tho room' examined her hair carefully, and then, after touching up the puffs of her 6leeves and smoothing her waist, she sighed and returned to her seat. "There, now, I'm all ready." For the next few minutes she had to work so hard that she hadn't time to say a single word. But soon the page was tilled, and she had to insert a new 6hct, and that was her opportunity. "Gracious! How fast you dictate! It almost takes my breath away. But do you know I like it. I think it's good practice Wore you there when all that happened? My! 1 wish 1 could boa re porter." The newspaper man went on with his dictation. He was fust growing hopping mad. but he hadn'C the heart to say a harsh word to the girl. She was really very pretty, and as she became interested in the story a delicate flush mantled her cheeks, and it was a positive pleasure to watch her, but a newspaper man has no time, for pleasure during business hours, and these charms did not interest him a much as they might have done under other circumstances, but he struggled bravely on. "Oh." she suddenly exclaimed, stop ping in tho middle of a sentence, "did that really happen?" "Yes, yes! Will you please go on?" "Well, the idea! I wouldn't have be lieved it. Do you know, I don't believe half what I read in the papers, but of course if you say so it must be true." '"I'm very sorry I can't chat with you, Miss Brown, but really I'm in a great hurry." "Oh, I beg your pardon! I forgot all about that. For nearly ten minutes there was not a break in the dictation, save where a sheet became full and a fresh one had to be in serted. The typewriter kept her lips firmly pressed together, as if she were exerting all her strength to keep silent. It was clear to see that it could not last much longer. In the middle of a paragraph she suddenly stopped, and with a brief 'Ex cuse me for a moment" left the room. In a few seconds she returned, with her jaws moving convulsively and a piece of chew ing gum in her hand. "Won't you have some?" she asked po litely. "N-n-no and I'll tell you what er I ue8 I won't have time to finish this story today. I'll come back some other time." "Oh, you're not going, are you? I'm awfully sorry. I was just getting Inter ested in the story." Very sorry er how much? Here. All right. Good day!" And seizing the few sheets that lay on the desk the newspaper man went away and finished the story with a pen. New York Sun. Sentiment or Hard Cash.

They're jut put in for looks. I don't waut to bother about them." Such are the sentiments of a good many schoolboys wit h regard to tho branch of letter and composition writing-. Others, again, appear to think that all that is necessary i-4 to pin iu a comma here and th -re at haphaz ard, to set of the "looks of t he thing." How risky this way of doing thing is may be learned from the following incident. It seems that some twenty j.an ago, when tho United States, by con gress, was making a tariff bill, oil" of the sections enumerated what artii-b-s should be admitted free of dutv. Among the articles specified were "ail foreign fruit-plants," etc., meaning plants imported for transplanting, propagation or experiment.

They decided that Jerry Simpson's name, as the Democratic candidate for congress in the Seventh district, was entitled to a place on the ticket as his name was presented as the Demo cratic candidate in a regular way. They decided that David liathbone is entitled to have his name printed on the ticket as the independent free silver can didate for judge in the 23rd district: and that A. K. Gilkerson, in the same district, is not the regular Democratic candidate but his name may lie printed on the ballot under tiie headiutr of "Peo ple's Petition Ticket." Secretary of State Osborn has already been enjoined from putting Jerry Simp son's name on the ticket as the Democratic candidate and it is understood mandamus proceedings are to be commenced in tl.e district court this evening to compel htm to place the Corning ticket on the ollici.il ballot.

The season beginning late in the summer and ending in No vember is usually the busiest of the year. Th.t is the case this year ou account of the apple crop. .throughout the -Missouri valley the cooper shops are running full blast turning out apple barrels. The coopers of Kansas City a few days ago went on a strike for 7 cents a bar rel aid they won. Seven cents is the recognized price now ail over the country for apple barrels.

John Swiuton made a speech before the People's party last night, lie attacked General Scho tield, of the United States army, who, in a report made last week, recommended that the president be given power to in crease the army, if he finds such action necessary, in times of loreign invasion or domestic disturbance. Mr. Swinton referred to General Schofield as "that decrepit old bungler of unclean record." These are some of the tilings he said: "The two satanic parties have brought us to the verge of danger, according to Schofiehi. Why is not this man hanged to the gal lows like Benedict Arnold? He proposes to ubolish constitutional government, an I give the president power to increase the army at will. There are now 0,5 0 sol diers on Governor's Island to preserve the peace of the city." At this point the people in the rear of the hall laughed. Then Mr. Swinton's eyes flashed with indignation. "A man who laughs now is a traitor. This thing ought to rouse indignation that would put a gun or a bomb in every man's hand. It is like Americans to laugh."' I. 'lie ne v Direct rv. The Wall Street Journal of Oct. 15 contained some interesting gossip relative to the interests represented in the Santa Fe directory by Mr. C. S. Gleed of Topeka. The Journal says: "A member of the Atchi.sbn Protective committee says: .vir. B. I'. Cheuey, jr., of Boston and Mr. C. S. Gleed of Topeka. are claimed as Q.jw directors; but it must be remember ed that Mr. Cheney is a son of B. P. Cheney who was a, director up to last y ar and also at the time when .$41,000,000 were expended for construction account by the company. C. S. Gleed of Topeka, is a lawyer and represents the interests of B. P. Cheney, which are said to be very large in Kansas. His appointment, it is claimed, was at the instance of B. P. Cheney, jr. While it is claimed these two gentlemen are new directors, can it be said they have no affiliation whatever with the old directors'.' The stockhold ers now have a chance of electing an en tirely new board of directors, with no previous connection with the past managements or directory, the ma jority of whom from the facta above sub mitted are, to say the least, closely af filiated with and beyond doubt were ap pointed at the instance of the retiriug members, evidently intended to give the impression that it was an entirely new regime. That i tlie Keoiiuiiieiitlatioii of lieu, O. O. liowartl in Hint jteport. Washington, Oct 17.- -The annual report of Major General O. O. Howard, commanding the department of the east, has been made public. Geu. Howard, in speaking of the movements of his troop, necessitated by the late strike, says that fortunately his apprehensions of serious obstruction to commerce of the east and south were not re.tlixed, but should such difficulties arise simultane ously, the necessity for regular troops and more than his department now af fords, he says, is apparent. Just now the national guards in several j f states in me uepariment. are wen organ ized and respond promptly to every -call of duty. The executive will always require his own troops, and of course the governors of states should have co-operation, but they might disagree or be reluctant in meeting sud den emergencies. Therefore General Howard's report recommends the in crease of the army to double the size of our present force. In his judgment, it will be like an adequate policy, tho best possible method of preserving the peace until any vexatious questions, which are now troubling the country are put at rest by a situation satisfactory to the people of the nation.

Chicago's I5i; Democratic Oerman News paper Support a Republican. Chicago, 111., Oct. 17. Henry Wulff, Republican candidate for state treasurer, is receiving tho support of the "Illinois Staats-Zeitung," a Democratic newspaper owned by Postmaster Ilesing. That pa per contains an editorial, a column in length, declaring that Wulff was the candidate who should be elected. It .said that men should be chosen for the office of state treasurer without reference to their politics, attention being paid only to their litness. It continued: "Of all the candidates of all the parties it is our duty to say that the Republican nominee, Wulff, is by far the most worthy. The article has created consternation in the Democratic catnp, and President Cleveland will be called upon to disci pline Hesing for his flop. W O M AN 'S FED E R A T ION.

For Kansas: Tonight fair, colder; followed Thursday by f ur with warmer in weat half; northwisst winds. If the formation of llarnbeau clubs Is any indication of politic,! sentiment, it doesn't appear that any Populist voted are going to be cast in Topeka. In 1S82 David Ovennyer was in favor of woman suffraga. "What has changed David? Who h3 caused him to think differently or rather indifferently of women? So thk Populists anc. Democrats have fused on members of the legislature in fifty-nine counties. This really doesn't look like such a Democratic landslide as the correspondents of the Kansas City Timea have made appear (by request of Editor Witten McDonald, novitiate ia the public opinion moulding business). People from New York city are be ginning to register f ro n other places be cause they are "ashamod" of their home. We think the man who is ashamed of the place where he lives ought to quit living there. New York is a pretty tough place, tut the Rev. Thomas Dixon Instead of registering- "Virginia" had batter stick to New York and help to Improve her. Topeka spends so much, of her time hating Populists that if they should hap pen to get in again they might retaliate. The capital cf a state which occupies t ie position of hostess to the administra tion and leg-is'.ature, no matter what its politics, should no doubt hold what po litical opinions she pleases, tut ia her capacity of hostess, sl.e ought not to be a crank. Thk Topulist state central committee Bends out great quantities of campaign literature, bat the more Prison Trustys they send out the bettar for the Republi cans. Nobody but Populists would im agine that a penitentiary sheet could make convertajfor Populism. The Popu lists do so many fool things that if they win this time, Providence must surely be on their eide. There are a lot of iasincere politicians In Kansas; thy are ia all parties. They emit opinions one year that they go back oa the next year. The people forget what they said until sioiebody accident ally unearths an old epaech, or letter, or newspaper article thuy wrote, and then we see how insincere and inconsistent they are. None of these politicians are fit to hold office, but the people let them In because tha people that ia the decent people dc n't want the bother, nbuse and worry connected with office holding. Wo suppose the offices will al ways be theirs, but it ia a good idea to watch theia. El Dorado Republican. The squib fa the Lawrence World, concerning Major Hood's candidacy for the senate, ia very unfair, to say the least. The major came to Kansas shortly after he left the Union army, went to work and kept at it till he has accumulated considerable property. He is a hard worker and has had as much of the rouh and tumble of wes tern life as any of ua. He is a careful, prudent business man, popular with everybody that knows Lirn, is a gentle man of the most exemplary and temper ate habits, and there is not a man or woman in the state who knows him that ia ready to say an unkind word of him. He has always been a Republican and has always helped the party in every campaign. He ia a cool headed man, aggressive and successful and if his friends desire him to be a candidate for the senate it doe3 not authorize anybody to say mean or untruthful things about him. Ix politics nothing ever "goes tack" to what it was at a former period. In politics there is a movement forward as in everything else. The advent of the Republicans to power is not to restore what is old. The party must grapple with questions of the day and it must advance with them. The silver ques tion can't be ignored and it can't be dodged. The party must be for free silver or it must be against it. If it is against it it will be defeated tv.-o years from now, even if it ia victorious this fall. Western Republicans must labor earnestly with their goldbug brethren to convince them that committing the party to the gold standard or even an evasion of the question, means destruction. It is said that Chairman Breidenthal Las colonized enough Populist voters from the western counties to over come a Republican majority in the east ern counties, burely, a man who shows such abilities for colonization, ought not to have made a failure of Topolobauipo. PARAG11APTIS. Several Indiana have accepted tempo rary positions in tha Horton jail. Fairview has arrived at that metropol itan stage where it recognizes tha neces sity of an Ananias club. The Orphan Glee club hails from Osage City. Well if they are orphans it might be well to be charitable. No sooner had the tirst frost appea ed than the church women of Iola lejrau to make preparations for a crysanthemum iair. The Osage County Graphic's euphem istic way of calling a m.iu a very oppro brious name is to say that he is kiu to a mule. There are about a half-dozen cases of scarletina at Holton, but the disease has not yet necessitated the closing cf the j schools. Mr. Ruffhead of Ness City will never j be able to occupy the frout row uuiii tie gets a smooth, sniny poll like th.j rest of i tne boys. j A Ness City man whose wife knows j uow 10 iiiatic mo teai jjitrs m liiw cuuiii, i went to i-iarnea atier a wagou ioaa 01 squaBhes. An Allen county farmer haa made 3 per cent a month on on investment in cattle and is the enemy of every money loaner in Iola. The Lavender club is the swell secret organization of Cawker City that can af ford to give away diamond pias as prizes at its high live parties. The Horton Commercial sav that a prize orator of the State university has been applying hs learning by peddling sweet cider in that town. A South Haven young- man who at tended the state fair at Wichita burned up a whole box of matches trying to light the electric light in Lis roonu Some philanthropic thieves broke into a iiiawatua Darter stop recently ana took all the razors, ilea must be pretty much on the steel to go after such goods. The Osage City banks have enjoined the county treasurer from collecting taxes from them on the ground that they have been assessed out of proportion to other busiuess organizations. DOESN'T BELIEVE IT. Chairman Richardson Says Overmyer ivr Favored "Woman Suffrage. Chairman J. S. Richardson, of the Democratic state central comumteo, eavs David Overmver has before this denied the statements in the Populist literature that he was a friend of suffrage in lSf2. Chairman Richardson says: "It stands to reason he never mada the statements accredited to him, for he lina always been opposed to woman suifrae. When he was attending college in Indiana a lady friend went to him and asked him to look up the question of equal suffrage and write his commaeeiuent oration in favor of suffrage. David said he would look the matter up and he did. When commencement day came around he delivered a masterly oration on suf frage, but it was in opposition to suffrage and no one in the audience wts more surprised than the lady who had asked him to write on that subject. This is a fact and it is all the proof necessary that Overmyer has always been opposed to woman's suffrage. LOCAL MENTION. Sirs.

Governor Till man, of South Carolina, was at the treasury department today and had an interview with Commissioner liller, oi the internal revenue bureau, in regard to a question on which ihere seems b be a conflict between federal and state authorities. Under the dispensary Uw. of the ctate of South Carolina, d stilled spirits in the custody of the United states in bonded warehouses belonging to parties who have violated the provi sions of the dispensary law by t-eliipg them within the state ate declared to be a nuisance, and on conviction the state oilieers are authorized to seize and con fiscate the liquor. In all such cases the governor proposes to tender the tax due to the government and seize the spirits, contending that the federal authorities have no right to interfere in the matter. Governor T'ilmaa indulged in the fol lowing war talk on the general subject of dispensaries: "I propose to make everybody get out of the road and obey the law. I urge all good citizens to frown down all resist ance to the law, and to co-operate with the constituted authorities in carrying it out and preventing such unseemly and disgrace! ul exhibitions as we had at Greenville. The town people who are opposed to the law have nothing to gain aud everything to lose by sacti behav ior. I have no desire in the world to employ any force and would be glad to have the co-operation of the police and the municipal authorities, but I have all the militia I need, and can concentrate 2,000 men at any point in the state in side of forty-eight hours. While 1 would hue to resort to any such measures, to resistance will bo tolerated. The consta bles are going to work now and are going tj Bca.-cli all places where tney have l e isou to know that whisky or liquors are kept. Private residences will not be ex empt when we have reason to believe that they have been made depots for the storage of whisky. 'Tho constables will not be allowed to harass the people or to do anything to provoke collisions and any reasonable complaint against them will be promptly investigated. Sheriffs and police will be expected to co-operate, and those muni cipalities which prove derelict will re ceive no share of the profits, while it is almost inevitable that a system of metro politan police will be provided for all such places when the legislature meets." "Does that include Columbia and Charleston?" "Of course, specifically. ''Trial jutices who don't do their duty will likely be relieved of the burdens of ollice, and if juries fail to convict change of venue will be tried. "The law has come to stay, and the sooner that fact is recognized by the whisky men and those who have opposed it heretofore the better it will be for all concerned." MARCH OX WALL STREET.

Eastern BSEIDESTHAL A DEEP SCHEMER. According; to trie Latest Story lie i dimply a H'oilir In the Political World Maybe tlie Story la a Fak. Chairman Bre deathal of the Populist state central coaixuttee, neither confirms nor deaiea the truth of aa interesting Btory toll by the Topeka correspondent of the St. Louia Republic as to how the Populist chairrxiia haa figured the Re publicar.a out of several members of the legislature thia year. Chairman Breidenthal haa according to this story, bf-en for several months working an origiaal scheme to pull the legislature through and alao save his state ticket, if pcssible. When it was kaowa that a complete f l'uure of crops in western Kansas waa inevitable, Chairman Breidenthal. as ear ly as July last, commenced laying his plans to ihoid tin Populist voters who would be compelled tj leave that coun try. He recognized the fact that two thirds of the voters who would have to leave were memters of his party rent ers and poor men, who naturally absorb the Populist id;. He did not wait till the a: reams of emigrant wagons be gan to line the highways. He commenced business early and turned his committee into a bureau of information and i.n employment agencv. His plan waa to hold the Populist voters in the state until after election, although he was willing that all the Republicans who wanted to go back to their wife's people might move into Missouri or Arkansas. Chair jian Breidenthal addressed a let ter to the chairman of the Populist cen tral committee in each of the drought stricken counties, asking for the name of every Populist who would be likely to hava to leave the state. At the same tine he prepared a letter which was sent to the Populist chairman of each committe j in the couatkss of east ern Kansas, acquainting them with the situation of their western brothers. To these committeaaien he appealed for names cf well-to-do Populist farmers who had land for rent, stock to feed, corn to gather, or work of any character that the unfortunate f iraiera of western Kan sas could da Letters soon bejan pouring into Brei deuthal's ofdee frjni both directions and ha lost no tima ia putting the wealthy farmers of eastern Kansas in correspond ence with their starving brothers out wst, and the reuit waa that when the Populist farmers were compelled to move out of western Kansas in August and September they had a place to go and most of them were soon settled in Borne eastern county where their vote3 will help out on eieirtion day in one of the several close legislative districts. This colonization of western Kansas Populists in the eastern counties is like ly, it is said, to tira several heretofore Republican legislative districts into the populist colama. 1 he Republic correspondent in ex plaining the colonization scheme, says: "For example, in Anderson alone 22o western Kansas Populists have been colo nized. They are living on farms or in the towns and visages, and are generally employed by the Populist farmers of the county. Two years ago the Republican member of the legislature was elected la Anderson county by 2ti plurality. The western Kansas Populist who are colo nized there will insure the election of a Populist member. "hmu conntj, c u the Missouri border, elflcted a Republican by one majority in Ninety wt stern Kansas "exodus ters" are temporarily camping in that county till election dav, when they will proceed to the Ozark region of southern Missouri. -orlil9n' la AIIeii cuuty, a colony of ISO voters from t 19 dry lands are wait ing u vo;e the Populist ticket befare Are you interested in Overcoats?

Two years ago that county sent a Republican to the legislature by only 121 majority. 'In one district in Bourbou county the Republicans had a majority at tho last election of 79. Today Breidenthal is confident of success there, because he has colonized 140 voters from the drouth district. "Wotidson county elected a Republi can by 03 majority in lb'J2. About SO wandering Populists from the arid belt are sojourning there until the 7th of No vember, when they will move on to the Ozark?. "Jefferson is another county the Re publicans carried for the legislature two years ago. It is stated that 250 voters have been colonized there enoug'i to elect two Populists members to the leg islature. "The same work Laa been done in Cof fey, Neosho, Nemaha, Pottawatomie, Wabaunsee, Morris and Marshall coun ties." Two-years ago when the Republican state central committee spent the entire campaign in making a poll of the state. Chairman Breidenthal '-fooled" hia op ponents by instructing his workers to have six or eight Populists in each pre cinct pretend to have gone back to the Repul! leans. This boomed the Repub lican pod and male the Republican managers happy up to election day while Breidenthal all the time figured the f re tended Republicans oil of the poll of the Republican state central committee and felt sure of a plurality of about five thousand. Chairman Breidenthal has adopted much the same measures this year, and under his instructions all of t.hese colo nized Populists report themselves as Re publicans to the Republican poll takers, and it is this fact which makes the Re publican managers feel so sure of carry ing so many of the close legislative dis tricts in eastern Kansas. Tlio results on election day will show the effect of Chair man Breidenthal's work. Political Notes. J. R. Burton and John W. Breidenthal have bet a .$50 suit of clothes on th.3 re sult of the election. Secretary Bristow, of the Republican state central committee, says he has had a bad headache for three days.

Hundred3 of Nam-s Signed to the Petitions. AN ETEENAL DIYORCE DECREED Between V at ion al and State Politics and Municipal Affjirs-The Outlook I'romisin;. The Civic Federation or Municipal league has not been organized, though hundreds of names have been signed to the call for a mass meeting to effect an organization in Topeka. The date of the meeting has not yet been fixed. Organizations similar to that which will be organized in Topeka have been organized in many citie3 and the pur poses and manner of conducting an or ganization are outlined in the constitu tion and bylaws of the organization in Philadelphia. The declaration of principles Is as fol lows, except that "Topeka" is substituted where "Philadelphia" appears: "We, the members of the Municipal league of Topeka, inviting the co-operation of all our fellow citizens, hereby declare, and pledge ourselves to the en forcement of the following principles: "First We believe that the highest principles of municipal self government in the United States will be materially promoted by the absolute separation of municipal politics from national aud state politics. 'Two The material prosperity of all citizens residing or having business in terests in the city of Topeka depends, in great measure, upon the honest and efficient conduct of its government by enlightened methods and upon business principles. Topeka should have the most improved system of taxes, of street paving, of lighting, of water, of drain age, of schools, of transit and all other public necessities and conveniences. To secure these results will be the inces sant aim of the Municipal league of Topeka. "Three "We pledge ourselves to nominate or indorse only such candi dates as we believe to be honest and capable and in spmpathy with the prin ciple of absolute separation of muni cipal from state and ryitional politics. "Four We advocate the practical ox tension of the highest principles of civil service reform to all municipal depart ments and demand a rigorous observance of all laws and regulations concerning appointments to and removals from the municipal civil service. "Five It will be the special object of the Slunicipal league of Topeka to make a thorough and scientific in vestigation of the correct prin ciples of local self government, especially as adapted to this municipali ty, and to collect and publish all appro priate information on the defects and needs of our city government. While the members of the league may be mem bers of widely different national or state organizations, all will be united ia the common purpose of obtaining the best city government for the wisest expendi ture of money, of advancing the material growth of the municipality, and of stim ulating thai spirit of progress in her citizens which will secure for them and their descendants the largest measure of domestic comfort and of commercial prosperity." The methods as set forth in the by laws are as follows: 1. Educational By demonstrating to the public the advantages to be derived from the absolute separation of national and atate politics from municipal poli tics; and by the publication of a series of tracts on municipal affairs. Second Practical. By nominating candidates, when necessary who are pledged to carry out the declaration of principles of the league. The by laws provide that any one who subscribes to the declaration of princi ples may become a member. The maa acement is entrusted to the customary officers aud a board of managers com v.

"I am now satisfied that everything will be amicably adjust ed, though I do not pretend to say which committee will be victorious. I do not have much faith in these committees.

Dennis must be aa old soldier and the old soldier who has the heaviest pull seems to be General J. C.

General Caldwell is now making Re publican speeches over the state aud if he can be given this position, he will be satisfied. Lawyer Charles Foster has been men tioned as a successor to Mr. Dennis. He has however, no political pull aud his chance for appointment is not great. It is expected that several other candidates will show themselves before the close of the week.

Among the botanical curiosi ties -which have delighted thd eyes of visitors to the Missouri Botanical garden for the past few weeks has been the Victoria Regia, or tho royal water lily of the Amazon. It blossoms but rarely, and the few blossoms that have appeared this season have been admired by thou sands. The first of the blossoms to appear was in Aug. 29. It was the first ever Been in St. Louis. For two successive nighta it opened aad then closed tight- ly. On the third afternoon it male a faint effort to open again, but was un able to do so, and then sank below the water to become a seed pod. This has been the history of succeeding blossoms. It is the nature of the plant. The plant has great, round leaves, with edges which turn squarely up. They are filled with veins and a net work of air cells, which makes them very buoyant. Some of these which have appeared at the botanical garden are nearly if not quite 0 feet in diameter. This leaf forms a veritable boat, and the turned up edge keeps it us dry as the bottom of the finest launch. If pro tected by a frame to keep it from being punctured, it would bear up a good sized man. But without a frame it will support in the water a considerable weight. Mr. James Gurucy, the gardener, made the statement the other day that ho was sure it would bear th9 weight of a baby, and out of curiosity the trial was final ly made. The infant was carefully wrapped up in blankets. Gently the little one was laid on the huge lily pad. Its weight hardly caused a deflection in the gTeat leaf, and for several minutes the baby floated about in its fairy boat. The pads of the Victoria Regis con tinue to grow after the blossoms are gone. There are several of these leaves which will sustain fully as great a weight as the one with which the exper iment was made. St. Louis Post-Dispatch. A Twelve-year-old Heroine. Little Freda Johnson, a 12-year-old child, bore her infant brother in her arms, fleeing from the flames that claimed go many vic tims in the Wicon ein forest fires. Men have pride and balanced minds and knowledge of chances to sustain their courage, ena bling them to confront deadly perils with composure, but the child Freda had only love to fill her young heart and her weak arms with the courage and strength to bear the almost too heavy burden of that baby boy, under which tshe fell more than once as she ran, struggling, alone, lost from her parents in the smoke, ignored by the grown men and women, fleeing in greater ter ror than hope. On she ran, with waning strength, but with a purpose to save Joe, Baby Joe, or perish with him, but when she seemed about to fall the touguts of flame, reaching toward her, reanimated her and put new force into her frame, and she pressed forward, soul bearing her where body alone would have be trayed her. A pond of water received her and Joe, and they fell into its pro tecting shallows. "Joe would have been barned if I hadn't carried him, said Freda, and vre wonder what Joe will think of th speech of his 12 -year-old sister wt the years have lifted him into manh f and made him dependent en his o brawn to meet the crisis of life? A who will sing a song to the honor Freda Johnson, a song that shall have the voice of a poet for its soul? A h. oine this to match with the heroes wb risked their lives to save others!

Happily, since the atrocious fashion of wearing the hair in a chignon or waterfall has been abolished, very little false hair is worn, and the graceful, easy style of wearing the hair today makes it possible for a woman with very little hair to dress it prettily. Curly or wavy hair is an ad vantage, and the possessor of it ia the envied of her sex, as the possibilities of pretty arrangement are greater, and it lends softness to the face. Women with straight hair have to resort to curling irons and crimping tongs, which are very injurious. The heated iron applied to the hair burns the ends, however careful the user may be, and their per sistent use dries the life and color out of the hair, leaving it dry and harsh to the touch. Now that the frizzled bang has passed away, and woman's forehead is seen again, the curling iron has in a measure lost its usefulness, but it is still in evi dence on most dressing tables, as fash ion requires that the hair be "undulat ed," and women prefer its soft effect rather than the severity imparted by straight hair drawn off the forehead. The leading hairdresser of Paris a few years ago invented a new "undulating" iron, and with it introduced the style, of hairdrcssing made so popular by Mme. Hading. The women of Paris saw and admired, and Henri's fortune was made. He charged an exorbitant amount to dress the hair, $S, but nevertheless women stood in lino outside his shop awaiting their turn as men stand at the bos office of the theater at the opening of the opera season, and not infrequent ly a woman of speculative turn would sell her place in line for a very good price to some one more anxious than she to get in. The effects of this crimping was soon apparent in the broken ends of the Frenchwomen's hair. Brushing is the best tonic and is ab solutely necessary if one would have bright, glossy hair. The bristles of the brush should be long and of medium stiffness, not sharp enough to irritate the scalp, but of sufficient body to pene trate thoroughly the hair. Half an hour should be devoted to this brushing night and morning. Tho best way is to part the hair in the middle and down the back, and taking each side separately run the brush through at least 25 times to a side. The good eifect will be no ticeable in a very short time and will well repay the trouble. This brushing, besides bringing out all the natural gloss of the hair, prevents dandruff. If one is troubled with it, vaseline rubbed well into the scalp will help it. Women make a grave mistake in washing the hair too often. It is popu larly supposed that a washing is neces sary once a week to keep tho head clean, but it is not so. Brushing will keep the scalp clean and free from dust, and a shampoo is only necessary once a month. Every woman has her own recipe for a shampoo, but pure castile soap and enough borax to soften the water are as good as anything. Ammonia should not be used unless the hair is very oily. In that case a little is very good, but oth erwise it tends to make the hair dry and brittle. Soda used as a hair wash will turn dark hair to a dirty red-brown color and kill all natural luster. A well known physician, Dr. Fox, who is now dead, gave a prescription for a hair tonic to a patient several years ago. She found in it a wonderful invigorator for the hair and gave the prescription to several friends, who in turn told theirs about it, until now druggists keep it as a regular stock in trade. It is a liquid, made of vegetable in gredients, and is called "green soap." Hairdressers are divided in their opin ions of the efficacy of singeing the ends of the hair instead of cutting it. Some hold that it seals the hair, keeping life in it and preventing the splitting of the ends that is so annoying. Others main f :s' tain that it really causes the hair to split. It is pleasing to be able to say that bleaching the hair has almost become a past fashion. The woman who has given an artificial color to her hair regrets it in time. It is generally begun with tho idea that one application will last a life time, but when it is discovered that it is necessary to "touch it up" at least once a week, as the new growth ap pears, the constant repetition of tho process eoon becomes annoying. Many women, repenting of the folly of color ing the hair, have it cut off rather than risk the glare of daylight on their varie gated locks. Most women have a horror of turning gray, feeling that it indicates the en croachment of years. Premature gray ness is very common and may be attrib uted to various cases. Sometimes it is due to an absence of iron in the blood. It is common among people of an ante mie nature, and sickness often causes the hair to change. People who suffer from neuralgia generally show very gray at the temples, and the fact that hair suddenly turns gray through fright or intense worriment has been so positive ly proved that there is no doubt of its occurrence. Gray hair is always beauti ful with a young face. New York Sun. She Cot the riace. In a Sioux Falls Sunday paper re cently appeared an advertisement, "Stenographer wanted." Miss Eva Humes of Salem saw the "ad.," but Sioux Falls is 45 miles from Salem, and there would bo no train to that city un til late Monday, and before that time half a dozen persons might apply for the place. Miss Humes is a Dakota girl and wanted that position. She there fore attired herself in a jaunty bicycle suit, provided herself with a luncheon, mounted her wheel and made nearly 50 miles over a rough and hilly road to Sioux Falls, and early Monday morning applied in person for tho position and got it. Huron (S. D. Dispatch. The Ciirl. The father was quite anxiou3 for his son to marry, and on every occasion he was picking out what he thought was a suitable one. One night at a dinner the old gentleman sat next to a very at tractive young woman, and on his way home he was loud in her praises. "My boy, "he said, "she's tho very girl for you. "Not much, replied the boy, with peculiar emphasis. "But I say she is" insisted papa. "And I say not," insisted tho sou. The father became testy on the sub ject. "You're too hard to please. You don't expect a woman to bo perfect, do you?" "No, sir." "Then why isn't this one just the girl for you?" "Because, replied the young man, with an effort, "she's for some other fellow. She told mo so last night." Exchange. Satisfactory to the Heirs. r Widow Well, Mr. Brief, have you 1 read the will? ljl'Itrl Its. UUL x iail v cku.j thing out of it. Heirs Let us have it patented.

"I have a boy who is going to be shipped away to a boarding school just as soon as he is old enough for his mother to give her consent.'" said a board of trade man wit h some feel ing a day or two ago. ''He is only 5 years old now, but he is too observing and too ready with his tongue. He casts aspersions upon his father's habits that are unjust and uncalled for. "You see, it was just this way: The baby has bright red cheeks, and so her mother has given hr a pet name of Rosy Cheeks. It is very pretty, and I was wont to smile and feel proud as the mother and baby played together. But it is all changed now. The boy took up the pet name industriously and thought lie would improve upon it. He tried his im provement last night. "'Hullo, Rosy Cheeks:' he suddenly exclaimed to the baby. 'How's Rosy Cheeks'?' "Every one smiled and him in his pleasantry, encouraged so he tried the next feature. 'Ilullo, Rosy Lips" he cried to his mother, and of course she showed her pleasure. 'Hullo. Rosy Nose!' he yelled, sud denly turning to me. And that is why he is going away. 1 have got to draw the line somewhere." WAR'S MODERN HORRORS. Science la Making Ita KfTects Too Dread ful to lie 1 njafcil In. Various experiments with the new rifies, which have recentlj' taken place in Germany, have demonstrate;! in a very conclusive manner that another war would practically be one of an nihilation. A well-known French writer, in an article which he devotes to the subject, sa3-s that the battle field would at the end of an engage ment be covered with two or three hundred thousand corpses ali crushed and broken, and would be nothing but a vast charnel house. Xo one would be left to bury the dead, and pestilence would in its turn sweep away the country people. Pointing the moral, he adds that the man emperor, king or president of a re publicwho, under these couditi jns, would expose the human raca to such a fate would the greatest criminal that the world had cv;r seen. It is tolerably plain that the horrors and the butchery which a war would en tail are becoming more and more recognized, and that the terrible vista thus opened out is exercising a sober ing effect on those -who were for merly wont to discsus various even tualities with a lio-ht heart.

"Well, sir," said a well-known L i isville man, "I had an embarras-; n experience recently. I Invari.t iily sleep until the very last moment, a n i then make a rush for th break f -i-t table and the car. That inorniii.r I had but five minutes to get tbruu ;i eating" and catch the car t (.;i i. t 1 my door. I fairly poked thiturs d.n n m v throat, and hearina- the ciiui cf the motorman's bell I made u rush ,r the btreet. As I passed through tb hall I snatched a hat that was Lai r ing on the rack, and just reached the corner in time. Then I dropped ir:t a seat and took the morning paper from ray pocket. It was not 1 j i f until 1 heard a gentle tittering fn i i some dry g-oods clerks in the m-H behind me. They kept it up a i t somehow I got an idea into my lieal that they were laughing at me. 'After a while I turned iiereely one of them and asked what it w:n that seemed to amuse hira no. Hi trembled and managed to gawp cut, that I had on my wife'a hat. It wan even so, and there was one of the- iong"i paudy, yellow pir that women use to keep their headgear in posi tion, sticking in it. I wa to ma l that I jerked it off and threw it into the street. Then everybody in tl.a oar roared, and I felt truly furious. When I reached a hat store I fetepj 1 in and bought me a hat of the mase-i-line variety. Several hours afterward my wife dropped in at the store, and the was wearing ray hat. There was) a pin in the back of it, and the litU5. face veil swinging from th front, but it was my hat. J didn't f-:iy a word, and that woman is wearing it 3-eL What bothers mo is that every body found out the joke on me, aad nobody has noticed it on her." HIS OVN "A I LOR. A German Prince Teaches to tbe Officers. The statement that tlie German em press is in the habit of mending her consort's linen and darning h's stock ings is in parallel to a good story til of Prince Henry, the kaiber's brother and admiral of the imperial navy, which reports that at an inspection of the naval division under his command the prince noticed that the mn pos sessed of private means exhibited only new clothes, or such as had been ver v little worn. Upon inquiry lie heard that these men bought new clotliei rather than rjatch their old ones,. His royal highness dispatched a messen ger to the castle, w ho soon after r e turned with a suit of vvhito duck, wnich Prince Henry unfolded before the einjaihrigen, (gentlemen volun teers). The clothes were well worn and neatly patched, and the prince ;i 1 dressed his hearers as follows: "M v superior officers compelled mo to re pair ray working suit when I served my first term aboard as a 'middy.' I do not doubt that you have t hrt means to purchase a duck suit, and so has, in fact, any sailor. But, gentlemen, some of you expect by and by to In come officers. How can you expect t. be entrusted with the property ot the country if you are not more care ful of your own." In this way I'rinc.; Henry assists hiss brother, the kaiser, in his crusade against extravagance in army and navy, which has met with very encouraging results and has not been without inliucnce on na tional morals. THE French BALLOON CYCLE. Army Means of Carry to ir War IMspatcfar-a. There floated over the hamlet of Villeneuve-la-Garenne the other after noon, in niid-air, a balloon. Suddenly it appeared to burit and fell rapid ly toward the earth. Fearing that u. disaster had occurred th terriUel folk ran to the spot at which they e x pected the aerostat would reach the ground, when to theiir amazement, they saw a parachute detach it-elf from the car and descend 'gently Immediately the earth was touched one of the pas,fe nge rs jumped upon a small bicycla which he had brought with him from the aerial regions, and lie disap peared in the direction of J va llois, in the neighborhood of Paris, as rapidly as tlie machine could carry him. The explanation of this singu lar occurrence is simple. The bal loon was the Caliban, and the ascent was made from Levalloisj by Captain C'apazza and M. Hervien, the latter being the cyclist Their object was to test the possibility of a balloon being used for carrying war dis patches, and they assumed that au enemy succeeded in destroying it Yet they proved that by means of the parachute they would be able to make g-ood their escape and to out distance their pursuers with tbe aid of the portable bicycle.

According to a German musical journal this strikingly origi nal system has just been introduced by a Berlin bous;.

The symphony hea is the list at the uniform price of four marks the kilo. The system, it ap pears, does not admit the allowance of discount Four Years Spent In Its Making.

At the request of a number of parents who send children to Polk school. City Physician Hibben went to the school to day and made an examination of the out buildings on the property. He found the complaint? to be wed founded and the school in a serious condition. The girl'a closet was especially o5etibive, being ventilated with only a small window. Dr. Hibben will instruct the school board at once to make such changes at the Polk school property as will insure the health of the pupils.

It ar' needless to remark that I am still engaiged in the grand and glorious mish un of contributin to the happiness of my feller men, or at least sich of them as I meet up with in this Cherokee strip who will permit me to extend my efforts in thar behalf. The other day, as I was out s'archin fur the roots which ar' the foundashun of my celebrated Chero- Sj kee sassyparilly. c which is sold at $1 a bottle and war ranted to enthuse the vital speerits as nuthin else kin, I met a pilgrim whose dejeckted appearance enlist ed my sympathies to once. He was lame in both lejs, his back was humped up, and his eyes were red from wipin away the tears of sorrei on the tails of his woolen coat. "Pilgrim," sez I as I stood before 'A WIFE LESS, HOMELESS, "why this hopeless man." gorrer?" Tears gushed from his eyes, and he sot down on the grass and sobbed aloud. 'Hev loneliness and sadness and sorrel driv all the boundin enthoosiasm out ot yer soul and left ye to walk in tho shad tfer of dispairV" ".She hev, f-tranger sho hev!" And he weeped and wiped and wept agin. Mehbe yo had a wife wheir ye jogged along this way from Kansas or Missouii :i partner of yer busum, as Shakespeare puts it?"

'And ye luved that woman with a boundless luv'r" .sorter luved her, sorter boundless ltiv.

"A woman yoeth whar she listeth, sez 1 as I remembered the names of threes ho had run away from mo in days gone by. 'Yes, she do, and duru her pictur'!" he replies as he gits up a leetle speerit in Lis tones, and tho end of his nose grows r.-il with emoshun. "And yo ar' finanshually busted?" "Bust d all to squash! If gondolas wal a-sellin fur a cent apiece, with the bilei and injine thiowed in free gratis, I couldn't buy one." "And while yo war shakin with tho ager andmournin arter the lost partner ot yer busum alougs cuius a kuss who jumps ye outer yer hole in the ground and seizes yer bloomin claim as a site fur an orphan asylum?" "He do, stranger, he do, and ye behold in me a wifeless, homeless, hopeless man, and one who ar' about to shuille off this mortal coil and bo at rest. Yes, a human critter cuius along whilo my chill was on and pulls me out of the holo and tells me to go hence. 'The best of us ar' but pore and humble critters," sez I as I realizes that one dose of my Cherokee sassypariuy wouiu T""! tecli his vital spot and rellgnt tne tt candle of hope in J3 his dispairm heart.

She w'ars a No. 11 shoe, and she kicks straight out behind, liko a mule, and her breath would wabble the hind wheels off a wagon.

He went, but as darkness fell he returned and stole my spotted boss, and a shotgun, and a blanket, and though I chased him three miles he got away. Sich is the gratitoodof human natur', but I'm not complainin. If I can gic thecaso properly afore the public, it orter increase the sales of my sassyparilly by 50 bottles a week.
