10 CENTS A WEEK. SIGHT EDITION. TOPEKA, KANSAS, SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE S, 1895. TWENTY-THIRD YEAR. BBEionvms. The Supreme Court Decides in Breidenthal's Favor. StateBankConimissioners Term Expires Feb. 12, 1897. JUSTICE J OUNSTON Does Not Concur in Decision of Other Judges. Administration May Go After Breidenthal Another Way. TO MAKE CHARGES Against the Manner He Con ducts His Office And Have Him Removed for Alleged "Cause." John W. Breidenthal, chairman of the Populist state central committee and state commissioner, has won his case in the supreme court and will continue to hold the office of bank commissioner un til February 12, 1S97. The BUpreme court today decided the bank commissioner case in Mr. Breiden thal's favor, holding that his appoint ment was for a term of four years from February 12, 189a The ollice of state bank commissiouer was created by the legislature of 1891, and the law provided that the commis sioner should be appointed by the gover nor with the advice and consent of the senate, for a term of four years. Governor Humphrey, after the ad journment of the legislature, appointed Charles F. Johnson, of Oskaloosa, to the office. When the Populists went into power Governor Lewelling removed Mr. John eon, who had never been confirmed by the senate, and appointed Mr. Breiden thal, who was immediately confirmed. A few months ago Governor Morrill, acting on the theory that the term of bank commissioner began with Mr. Johnson's appointment, and although Mr. Breidenthal had been confirmed, his time expired in February, made an order removing him from the office and ap pointed C. H. Jobes of Attica, Harper county as bank commissioner. Mr. Breidenthal refused to turn over the office on the ground that as he was the tirst bank commissioner to be ap pointed with the advice and consent of the senate, the term of four years began with his appointment. Mr. C. S. Jobes then brought suit in the supreme court to oust Mr. Breiden thal from the office, and that is the case which is decided .today. A majority of the court Chief Justice Martin and Associate Justice Allen held "That the appointment of Johnson was only provisional and temporary, and the commencement of the official term began to run from the appointment of Breidenthal, and that he is entitled to hold the office for four years from the time of that appointment" Associate Justice Johnston dissents from that opinion, holding that the full term should be counted from the ap pointment of Charles F. Johnson. Chief Justice Martin concurs in some special findings as follows: "I concur, but after deciding that the lour years term is not vitiated by the provision for holding over until a sue Cessor is elected and qualified, I would prefer to place my concurrence upon the ground that this statute does not rec ognize any vacant, unexpired, or frac tional term, and each incumbent ap pointed by the govornor with the advice and consent of the senate, is entitled to hold for the fuli term of four years." Mr. C. S. Jobes, the defeated candi date for the office, was the first to carry the news of the decision to Mr. Breiden thal. When asked what he proposed to do, Mr. Jobes said to a Journal reporter that he did not propose to divulge his plana, but would continue the fight in another way. It is said that it is now the purpose of the Republican managers to have a leg islative committee appointed to investi gate the bank commissioner's office, and acting on the report of that committee, Governor Morrill will use his discretion, remove Breidenthal and appoint Jobes to the office. Mr. Jobes denied that he had ever heard of such a plan of procedure. Other Political Cases. The supreme court also decided sev eral other political cases. The Osawatomie asylum, cases were decided in favor of the Republicans. Dr L. F. Wentworth ai,d Steward T. J. Hayes win their suiu for possession of their offices. They were appointed for a term of three years each July 1, 1892 but in July 1894, the Populist board of chari ties appointed Dr. C. H. Wetmore super intendent and named a steward to suc ceed Hayes. The Republican offi cials refused to give up their offices and the court now holds that they were right in staying in office for the full term of three years. Their terms will however expire July 1 this year In the case of S. W. Chase against' the board of penitentiary directors, the court holds that the directors were right in re fusing to audit the accounts of the war den after he had been suspended and removed as a result of a report riled with the governor by a legislative investiga tion committee. The supreme court also decided that Senator M. A. Householder can not get back his place on the state board of charities. Governor Morrill suspended Senator Householder pending an investigation by the asylum investigation committee, aad Senator Householder brought this suit to compel the governor to reinstate him. The court holds that the governor act ing in the capacity of his office, is not inferior to the supreme court, and that it cannot compel him to revoke an order of suspension based on charges which the governor deemed worthy of credit Good Jfews For Students. The supreme court today decided the case in which the students at the state university law school rebelled against the charge of library fees by the regents. The supreme court decides that the regents have no right to charge for the use of the library and labora tory. Supreme Court Opinions.

Seats Are Bringing Four Pounds For Her First Appearaca. London, June 8. The principal event of the week, so far as the theatre is con cerned, has been the appearance on Lon don boards of the two great emotional actresses, Sarah Bernhardt and Elenora Duse, the latter appearing only four times a week. It is rumorea that she is suffering from consumption and that her permanent retirement from the stage is onlv a matter of a short time. Next week London theater goers will have an opportunity of contrasting the widely different methods of those two great artists in the same parts. Mme. Bernhardt is to present a French version and Signora Dugo an Italian adaptation of Heimat, which in both instances has been rechristened Magda. Great interest is taken here in Adelina Patti's first appearance of the season, next week. Seats are already bringing four pounds. Carmenciti in spite of the fact that a prominent theatrical paper declares that there is not a dancer on the stage to whom she could not give points and who "kept the Hudson in a blaze for five years," has not been successful in London. She has recently been giving a series of matinees at St James hall, and has varied her usual entertainment by singing Spanish songs accompanied by a quartette of na tive players. OSBON'S NEW TRIAL.

Smith Center, June 8. This city narrowly escaped a visit from a fearful tornado Sunday evening, Those who were watching the approaching storm, about op. m., were startled to see an enormous whirlwind drop to the earth about three miles southwest of town and although a good rain had fallen only a day or two before, great clouds of dust soon formed and a genuine twister was soon under way, which traveled in a southeast direction. Judging from appearance it was forty rods wide. No damage is reported. WANTS AN ENGLISH HOUSE A Wealthy American Advertises for a Big Establishment to Cost S5O.O00. London, June 8. Some curiosity has been aroused here over an advertisement wh-ich has just appeared in the news papers of the city over the signature of a prominent real estate firm. It says: "A wealthy American wishes to pur chase a historical, residential estate, with a Tudor or Elizabethan mansion, having twenty bed rooms, five reception rooms and 800 to 1,000 acres of land. Would pay about fifty thousand pounds." A representative of the Associated Press questioned the real estate agent as to the identity of this wealthy Ameri can. He said that the American re ferred to was at present in London, but that his client did not wish his identity to be revealed under any circumstances. Careful investigation has thus far failed to identify him. EXPECT TROUBLE SUNDAY. An Atterant Will He Made to Frnvent Socialists demonstration in Vienna. London. June 8. A dispatch to the Standard from Vienna says that it was intended that the Socialists demonstra tion on Sunday should be prohibited. Thousands of workmen, however, have already decided to take part in the pro cession, and it may be impossible to pre vent a demonstration. The police have orders to do all in their Dower to stoD the meetings of the social ists and as the officials have recently been reprimanded for undue leniency to those taking part in these movements, serious trouble is expected. SETTLES ROGERS' CASE. Decision in the Householder Case Ssttles the Itogers Question. In political circles today it is said that the decision of the Householder case by the supreme court settles the Rogers case. The court decided that it has no power to compel the governor to revoke an order suspending Senator House holder from the board of char ities and the politicians draw the inference that this also means that the court will decide that it has no power to compel the governor to revoke the order removing Senator Rogers as re gent of the university. American Outfits ia London. London, June 8. Loungers in Hyde Hark on Thursday last were startled by the appearance of a smart trotter draw ing an American sulky and driven by a well known Britisher.

Window Glass Workers Propose a World Wide Federation. Pittsburg, Pa., June 8. Preliminary steps, with a view of forming an international federation of the window glass workers of the world, have been taken bv the American Window Glass Workers' association for the protection of their mutual inter est. At the coming convention of the American association, which will meet in this city on July 18, the proposition will probably be one of the most import ant to consider, and an alliance with the organized workmen of Belgium and France negotiated. A strike has been in progress in Bel gium for several weeks. The members of the window glass workers association nave urged that money be contributed at once to support the Belgian strikers if they are in need of it. The crisis abroad has led to the con sideration of the benefits of an interna tional union of the craft organizations. Such an allowance was maintained be tween the workmen of America and Bel gium for many years, but the Americana withdrew. HARRISON NOW AT HOME. Ha Arrives at Indianapolis from His Eastern Trip.

O'Neill is not disposed to attach much importance to the free Bilver convention held in Springfield, 111., nor to take seriously the statement that if its action shall be followed out to its logical conclusion, the Democratic party will be in danger of disruption. He says that any convention that could be called by the siiver men, if they were to ignore the authority of the Democrat ic national committee, would be but a 'rump convention," and not be represen tative of the Democratic party. Al though he admits there is a strong feel ing in the south and west in favor of free coinage of silver. Mr. O'Neill says the views of the ex tremists who were represented at this Springfield convention do not represent the sentiments of the majority of the people of the country, or even a majority of the Democratic party. "If they persist in their course," said Mr. O'Neill, "I believe it will result in the further degradation ot silver rather than its advancement, because the more this question is discussed before an as intelli gent jury as the people of the United States, it seems to mo the worse it is for the extreme advocates of silver."

It has just leaked out that the man who sells lemonode and peanuts at the front entrance to the state house grounds on Ninth street had influence enough to make the executive council rescind an order. This peanut seller is an old soldier from Morris county named Alfred World. He secured permission from the supei intendent of the state house grounds to place his pop corn and lemonade sta tion op against the state house fence, but the state house guide who sells that kind of stuff in the Bast corrider objected, as he said it was an encroachment on his rights. The result of the objection waa that the executive council ordered Mr. World to move his peanut sphere away from the state house grounds. Mr. World applied to his Republican friends in Morris county. The other day Harry Richter came to Topeka and laid Mr. World's case before the executive council. He told them that World had six Republican brothers in Morris county and that if the peanut stand was not given the right of way an anti-administration delegation might be expected ie the next state convention from Morris county.

So great is the rivalry among the owners of fine chafing dishes and choice recipes to be cooked in them that cooking clubs, of both men and women, frequently meet and prepare a luncheon or ten o'clock supper entirely over the chafing dish. Each person brings or sends his dish and the materials for making it in advance, and the feast is cooked course by course by the different chefs. To prevent a superabundance of one kind of food, each guest is noti fied of the dishes that will compose the menu, or permitted to send in word of the concoction at which he is most skillful. In this fashion a chafing dish party may have much of the delight and terror of a summer picnic. Toothsome Fl Cake.

Daring the past fire months inch re liable journals as the Boston Post, Philadelphia limes, New York Press. uxiuiuore American, YYasnington Poet, and equally prominent newspapers in other cities have thoroughly investigated the claims made for Munyoa's Homoeo pathic Remedies with the moat astonish ing results. Bead what they have to Bay: The Boston Post says: "Since we be gan to investigate the claims made for Munyoa's Remedies we have received letters and testimonials from nearly every State in the Unioa, and find that his remedy only fails to cure about 4 ?per cent of the cases. Some of these cures have been so quick and so thor ough tha they seem almoBt incredible." The Philadelphia Times says: "Out of 1811 reports received from those who used Muayon'a Rheumatism Cure, 1744 declare themselves positively cored, aaci 33 say they haw beea gTeatly benefited.

He devoted most of his time to the silver and labor questions. He advocated the abso lute and unlimited free coin age ax. tne ratio ot 10 to l. He re ferred to the supreme court in very un complimentary terms, denouncing it for the decision "against labor" in the A. R. U. cases, which resulted in send ing Debs and his associates to Drison. He also brought serious accusations against the court for its decision in the income tax cases.

He said that if every laboring man would as sert his right by organization his strength could command more respect from the capitalists.- Ihe authorities of Canada have been making an elaborate study of the baking powders sold there. The offioial analvat of Ontario says as the result of his in vestigation that he "finds the Royal Bak ing rowaer far superior to the others." and goes so far as to recommend its" use in preference to any other.

The state horticultural society, in session here now, has the largest attendance since the society was organized. Most all of the prominent fruit men of the state are in attendance, many of whom have visited the large fruit farms near this city.

Advance So Fast it is Feared it Won't Last. The Demand for Money is Also Greatly Expanding. WILL IT CONTINUE. Crops May be Too Small Sustain Business. to New York, June 8. R. G. Dun Co-'s weekly review of trade says: The tide of business is rising, even as it was falling just two years ago, with surprising rapidity. The gain has gone so far and so fast in some branches that the more conservative fear it may not be maintained. But the period of dullness which comes m each market after an unusual rise brings as yet nothing like a corresponding decline. Industries gain much, halt or fall back a little and then gain once more. The demand for consumption is steadily in. creasing as the employment and wages of the people increase. Demand for money expands, one bank reporting 29 per cent, larger in the discounts for the country, and another 23 per cent, more commercial loans than a year ago. and all but two report some gain. The serious question remains whether the crop will be full enough to sustain a large Dusiness. iiut the worse re ports to-day are better by far than the estimates recently current. Wheat rose 2 cents, fell back 2 with realizing, ana has again risen 3, with a western estimate of a crop 80,000,000 bushels smaller than last year. It is per tinent to remember that official and most unofficial reports, down to a late period last fall, put the yield about 80,000,000 bushels lower than it is now known to have been. Western receipts were 264,000 bushels more than last year, and in five weeks have been 7,671,031 bushels, against 6,991,650 last year, while At lantic exports, flour included, 670,000 bushels for the week, have been in five weeks 7J88,728 bushels, against 11,945, 478 last year. There is neither holding back by farmers nor anxious haste in purchasing by foreigners to support belief in scarcity. Cotton declined an eighth,with better weather at the south, but excitement and prices rose again with the report of only 11.6 per cent, decrease in acreage. Much greater decrease has been considered certain, but condition is reported less favorable than last year. With a tenth smaller yield per acre and acreage 11.6 per cent, less than last year, the yield would still exceed 7,700,000 bales, which, with heavy stocks carried over, would for bid the idea of famine. But a late crop is the more exposed to injury. June began with 9,553,393 bales already in sight and 3,302,350 American remain ing in commercial 6tocks, while European spinners held May 1, over 1, 000.000 bales, according to Ellison. Iron pushed upward like the great buildings into which so much of it goes, and the advance in finished products has become general. Of structural steel, 12,600 tons were turned out in May by the Homestead works, breaking the record, and prices rose 1.3 cents for beams and L2 for angles. Failures for the week have been 195 for the United States, against 216 last year, and 25 in Canada, against 40 last year. The Royal Baking Rowder was intro duced to the public over a quarter of a century ago, and from that time the era of good bread, biscuit, cake and pastry commenced and from that time also be gan the decline, so frequently, remarked by the medical fraternity, of those dys peptic ailments which formerly pre vailed among the American people. No agency has had more Influence in thus Denenciaiiy affecting the health and comfort of the peopla than the Royal Baking Powder. THE INCOME TAX. Preparations Being; Made to Return Every Dollar Paid. Washington, June 8. Blanks are prepared at the treasury department for use of persons who have claims against the government for the refund of the income tax. The refund will be made under section 2220 of the revised statutes, which authorizes the commis sioner of internal revenue on appeal to refund all taxes erroneously or ille gally collected.

Two Man Claims to Ra Warden of the Kan. as Penitentiary Court Must Decide. Leatknwobth, Kan., June 8. Bruce Lynch is now fully installed and equipped as warden of the Kansas state penitentiary. He is the duly recognized bead of that institution by the board of directors thereof, and the governor and state auditor, and will exercise the fuU prerogatives of his office. For the time' being, however, this state institution will have two wardens and two deputy wardens, as both Chase and his deputy, Markham, refuse to admit that their successors have been legally appointed. At 1:25 p. m. yesterday the peniten tiary board, by a unanimous vote, ap proved the bond of Bruce Lynch, thus recognizing him as warden of the pen itentiary. Mr. Eckert, of the board, at once notified Mr. Lynch, who was outside awaiting the news, and then Mr. Lynch went to the penitentiary to made a demand upon Chase for possession. Many persons believed that a clash would occur, by Chase refusing to admit Mr. Lynch within the prison walls, but on the contrary, he extended a hearty greeting to the new warden, and the two then held a long and secret conference. It is said that Chase agreed to step down and out if the board would agree to audit his account up to date. This proposi tion was not entertained, as tb board concluded that such action would be a repudiation of Gov. Mor rill's claim for authority to suspend the warden. Finding that the board would not enter into any sort of com promise, Chase refused to acknowledge Lynch as his successor, and Markham, acting under advice of Chase, refused to recognize Naill as deputy warden. In this condition affairs now rest, there being two wardens and deputy war dens. But there is no clash or talk of physical resistance, and the courts will have to decide. MR. HARRITY'S LETTER. He Will Not Call a Meeting of the Demo- cratic National Committee. Philadelphia, June 8. Chairman William F. Harrity, of the democratic national committee, has received a number of inquiries as to whether he intended to call a meeting of the com mittee at an early day to decide whether or not a national convention should be called to take action on the money question. In order to relieve the mind of anxious democrats with regard to the matter, Mr. Harrity has written the following letter: Philadelphia, Pa., Juneft Idonot expect or intend to call a meeting of the democratic national committee until next winter, when it will meet for the purpose of fixing the time and place for holding the democratic national convention of 1890. unless I shall be requested to do so bv the requisite number of the democratic national committee. I do not believe there is any necessity for a convention at this time; on the contrary, I am of the opinion that to call one now would be harmful to the business in terests of the counrry and prejudicial to the welfare of the democratic party. William F. Harrity, Chairman Democratic National Committee. Mr. Harrity said he had nothing: to add to what is contained in this letter. EVANGELISTS CAST OUT. Two Methodist Ministers Apply for Licenses and Are Refnsed. St. Louis, June 8. A refusal to con tinue the licenses of H. C. Hart and A.

Magan and Hart have held local preacher's licenses for the past three yeara They are members of the First Methodist church of this city, and received licenses at the re quest of their fellow "members. For some time past, however, they have been touring the country on evangel ical missions and the refusal of their licenses for the coming year was based on the position that the church does not recognize the office of an evaneelist.

They heard a succession of thrilling screams, and saw a woman holding a babe and a man apparently being drag ged by the cars along the platform. The man, who wore the cap of a brake man, was evidently endeavoring to re lease the lady, whose garments had been caught on the iron work; it was a despe rate struggle, for several times the two persons were almost dragged from their feet to be rolled against the wheels; but the plucky man held fast, and finally the lady's dress skirts gave way at the waist and she was dragged into security. A boy had in the meantime sprung to the rescue and caught the baby from its mother's arms. Conductor Scott had signaled his en gineer to go ahead before the lady had time to get off the steps. Her dress caught on some projection, and but for Brakeman Deen she would have been whirled under the wheels. NEXT FALL'S FOOT BALL. Manager Mitchell Arranges Several Dates for the K. U.

New York, June 8 The great exhi bition of long distance riding in the his tory of cycling between Chicago and this city terminated at 1:56 o'clock this morning at the junction of Sixteenth street and the Boulevard. The great race, which required a great deal of careful preparation, started from Chicago Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock and was to cover 1,000 miles intervening between that city and New York. The record has been broken and the distance covered by six hours and forty-seven miqutes better time. In organizing this relay, a departure was made by a distinction in the colors worn by the riders. The military was represented by blue and postal .service by red. Mr. McMad, Postmaster Dayton's pri vate secretary, received the message by the red forwarded by Postmaster Hesing of Chicago, and represented the post office department, and 47 minutes later Gen. Miles received from the blue the message from Gen. Merritt It all it required over 500 riders and substitutes to carry the messages.

FORGED CALDWELL'S NAME A Leavenworth Colored Man Tries to Bunco the Tonanoxie Bank. Leavenworth, June 8. Geo. Lewis, the notorious forger, has not yet been arrested, but the officers of the law are on his trail. He tried to bunco the Ton ganoxie bank out of 300, as the follow ing will show: Leavenworth, Kas., June 4, 1895. Cashier Tonganoxie State Bank, Tonganoxie. Kansas. My Dear Sir: I have just mailed to Mr. David J. Conley my personal check No, 20, on the Manufacturers' National bank of this city for $300, which 1 wish you would be kind enough to cash when he presents it to your bank. I notify you of this issue, as he has an invalid wife, and had to sell me a piece of property he owned in this city to raise the money to send her away for treatment, and as he is a stranger in your city I want to remove any cause that might make him enter tain any delay in getting his money. He is a colored man. Yours very truly, Alexander Caldwell, Lewis no doubt became familiar with Mr. Caldwell's handwriting while in the Kansas penitentiary, as Mr. Caldwell had his wagon works there, and the forgery of the name would deceive any one. The cook should examine carefully the label of the baking powder and see that she is not imposed upon. If the grocer sends anything but the Royal, send it back, as one cook did five times until she got the RoyaL The only safe way is for the cook to have the finest things to work with, and the Royal is not only the finest but the most economical to use because it goes so much further. WILL PUSH THE FIGHT. A National Free Silver Democratic Con vention "Will Be Called. Springfield, 111., June 8. It is no longer a secret that the Illinois silver ites, under the leadership of Governor Altgeld and William II. Hinrichsen, in tend to cut loose from the present na tional Democratic organization and form a new Democratic free silver party. The plans were laid months ago, and so far everything has worked smoothly in the interests of the managers of the new de parture. The echoes of the state conven tion had scarcely died away when Chair man Hinrichsen declared that the state committee would now start in on the national work. "If the national committee refuses to call a national Democratic convention," Mr. Hinrichsen said, "we shall call on the state committees of the various states to act with the Illinois committee in calling such a convention. The result of such a national conference will be the same as that of our state convention. It will unify the party and leave the gold men in a hopeless minority." This bold utterance is backed up by Governor Altgeld, who said that the call ing of a national convention was the original purpose of the men who called the Illinois silver convention. "I was the originator, or rather, one of the originators, of the national conven tion scheme," the governor said, "and I did everything in my power to secure its adoption. WTe are not content with sim ply expressing our convictions. We are going to fight for them and push the fight all along the line." The national committee will be re quested to call a national convention, but it is not dreamed that it will accede to the request Neither Chairman Hinrich sen nor Governor Altgeld expects it to. Then Mr. Hinrichsen will ask the various state committees to join with him in calling such a convention. Wherover a state committee re fuses to join the call the free silver Democrats of that state will be re quested to issue a call for a state conven tion to select delegates to the national convention. In other words it is the programme to ignore the national com mittee and all state committees that do not fall in line and call a national silver convention, which is expected to reor ganize the party and take the reins of organization in its own hands. This, of course, means the disruption of the Democratic party. The leaders in the movement have now gone too .far to re treat. Twenty-four of the national commit teemen are opposed to the free coinage idea, twenty-two favor free silver, while the views of four are not known. BRITISH INDANGER. Tribesmen of Chitral Threaten To Take English Troops. Calcutta, June 8 Dispatches re ceived here from Simla say that the tribesmen of Chitral are again threaten ing to take the British troops. A body of 500 tribesmen is collected in the vicinity of Dargai and the British are preparing for an attack. Later dispatches from Simla say that a body of Shirannis has surprised a vil lage twenty miles from Fort Sandeman in the Zhobio country and killed a Brit ish lieutenant and seven men. The Statb Journal's Want and Mis cellaneous columns reach each working day in the week more than twice as many Topeka people as can be reached through any other paper. This is a fact. Bratt keeee kindergarten literature, IDA B. WELLS IN TOWN. The Agitator Against Lynching of Black Men Visits Topeka. Perhaps the one colored woman on earth who has a world wide reputation as a writer, lecturer and reformer is Ida B. Wells, who is in Topeka this after noon to lecture at the A. M. E. church at Seventh and Topeka avenue this even ing. Her specialty is agitation against lynch law in the south and she is mak ing a bold fight. Miss Wells is of medium stature. Her eyes are keen and black and her dress tasty. She appears to be a thoroughly educated woman, speaks with precision and decision, is never at a loss tor a word and is always' sure of her utter ances. Withal she is a very agreeble young colored woman young because she does not look over twenty-six, though she admits she is thirty-two. A Journal reporter found her at the home of Nick Childs on Quincy street, where several of the most prominent colored people of the city have met her today. She was willing to talk on the subject in which she is so deeply interested. "It ts my life work," she 6aid, "and I have studied it well. The facts have been so distorted that the people in the north and elsewhere do not realize the extent of the lynchings in the south. Since 1882 2.000 colored people have been lynched in the south. The number has steadily increased since the war until in 1894 it reached 200; four of those were women and three of them were burned. People in the north are led by the Associated Press reports, and the telegraph, which of course are own ed in the south by the people of the south, that all these lynchings are to ex piate atrocious crimes on women and children. 1 have indisputable evidence to prove that that is not so. "1 think a verv good medium is the negro's behavior in the south during the war. I he white men were at the front fighting to keep the colored man in slav ery. The very colored man he sought to" injure was left at home to take care of the white man s wife and children, and there was not one breach of trust, not one. "I was forced into this work by the lynching of three of my personal friends at Memphis, Tenn., on the 9th of May, 1892. I had quit teaching school then, and had established iu successful opera tion a newspaper which we called the Free Speech. "The three men lynched were respect ed grocerymen. Sneak thieves had made an attempt on their property and they resented it by firing on them. It was time to teach the niggers a lesson, the white men said, and they took the colored men from the jail and lynched them. The paper referred to them as three colored toughs. In the next issue of my paper I printed an editorial de nouncing the lynchers and the officers that allowed it. The daily papers advised that I be lynched and a committee waited on me, but I had gone to New York. They sacked the office, chased my business manager out of the city, and I was informed that if I came back I weuld certainly be lynched. as the trains were being watched. I have not been back, but I immediately began my crusade against lynching in the south and I shall con tinue it Anti-lynching club9 are being formed all over the United States where I have been for the purpose of educat ing the people on the subject. I have confidence enough in the American peo ple to believe that if they are once ac quainted with the exact facts the prac tice will be stamped out. "I could tell you of hundreds of lynch ings that have occurred and the facts distorted that I know all about myself, having visited the scenes and investigat ed them thoroughly." Miss Wells has issued several books the latest being "A Red Record, Tabulat ed Statistics of Lynchings and Their Al leged Causes in the United States." She has edited several papers and has been employed to do special writing along the line of her work for many of the leading newspapers of the world. She has lectured through Europe and was received by the queen of England. "I am occasionally threatened from Memphis to this day with death if I do not cease my work against lynching," she said "Dees it scare you any?" asked the reporter. Miss Wells closed her eyes for a mo ment and smiled; "I haven't quit yet," she said. The accompanying picture is good of her.

The heavy selling by one or two prom inent commission houses continued de pressing the market to 7UJg for July, but it was absorbed; as soon hs the sell ing ceased the market began to work op and closed at the top, the highest closing on the crop by nearly one cent. Slate crop reports are very bad and there i no sign of the breaking of the great drouth in the winter wheat states. The Modern Miller publishes a crop estimate of 193 million winter wheat and says Egypt will again have to import corn. Reports from California say the crop has been damaged 3) per cent by hot winds. Everything indicates a bullish government report on Mouday, should this occur the bears will have lost the last prop on which they have been resting. It must be evident to everyone that the crop has run down materially siuce the last estimates were made and it is still losing ground. Primary receipts for the week were 475.0J0 less and ship ment 650,000 nioro than the previous week indication, a decrease of three mil lion in the visible. The northwest is ex pected to decrease one million. Corn and oats closes strong and are ap parently going higher." The weather is against growing crops and receipts of corn are falling off materially. The de mand is also improving.

Chicago, June 8. For Kansas: tonight and Sunday; south winds. Fair Spain complains that the United States ia a recruiting ground for the Cuban in surgents. Well, the United States can apologize and that ought to settle it. Senator Inualls made the occasion of his Eureka speech an opportunity to puncture the "overproduction" and "lack of confidence" theories, and he did it in a way that only he can. Arthur Capper's paper says there are but 17 Republican papers in Kansas that favor free coinage of silver. Will he kindly print the names of them next week so the people may know their friends. The fact that the government has been called upon to decide a controversy which has arisen among its partners in the whisky business places it in an em harassing position. There is no proba bility, however, that the partnership will be dissolved. CarIj Browne announces that the sur vivors of the Commonweal army will re visit Washington July 4. The Common wealers should select the winter time for their next descent on the national cap ital, when there is no grass to get them into trouble. The revival in business already seems to demand the importation of iron ore from Cuba. It would be interesting to have somebody explain why, with the mountains of iron ore existing in this country, we cannot produce all the iron we need. Will White has started out to rival the Topeka Journal in sensationalism. Osage City Free Press. Mr. White is a skilled journalist fresh from one of the best newspapers in the west. He knows what is news and knows how to get it up in presentable shape. Real news is always sensational. That is mainly what makes it news. The newsiest paper in the United States is the New York World with 600,000 sub scribers. It is called "sensational" by all the sleepy sheets in New York which are jogging along with 30,000 circula tion. Some country editors in Kansas ought to be sent east or to the Topeka State Journal office to learn a few les sons on what is news and how to get it. An exchange calls attention to the fact that there is about four times as rm h tllver as gold in the United States treasury, and asks why it is that the gold is circulating among the people and the silver remains in the treasury vaults. There is no reason why the gold circu lates among the people because it doesn't. What qld there is in the Siuntry outside of the government's vaults is ia somebody else's vaults.

A discussion of the silver question, gold bug situation and general condition of the country originated in a favorite hiding place, not joint, if you please, of Santa 1 fl trainmen where twenty-live men were present Said one staid, brainy conductor: "What's the matter with the country and who shall we, the every day hustlers, vote for for president when the time comes?" Another gentleman, advanced in years and wrinkled with the kinks of time, al most vociferously exclaimed "John J. Ingalls." It was like, a stampede of quadrupeds. There was a universal hurrah, for In galls. "Ingalls," interposed the last speaker, "is the sort of timber the sturdy American can point to as- reliable as Providence and firm as a rock. I believe he is honest and wherever I have teen the people as a whole have confidence in him. "There are none to besmirch him bat the would-be office-holder. He is con versant with the practical situations of the lower classes as well as the upper; and he has got the nerve and the stamina, al though only a shadow physically to stand by his convictions in the face of all the selfish class of conscienceless political manipulators in Christendom." It is not unlikely that this little confab, more than once referred to on the streets, like the "cloud the size of a man's hand," may extend to a national whirlwind, Ingalls' position on the silver question is O. K, and there is a latent sentiment anyway in his behalf which only needs Blight cultivating to gain gigantic pro portions. Let Topeka's brainy laboring men have the credit of starting the blast. Signed. Don't Know Ingalls When I See Him. ABOUT THE ACADEMY. Soma Facts Concerning' the Institution Mr. Ingalls Helped Out. The institution for whose profit Mr. Ingalls spoke at Eureka Thursday night is called the Southern Kansas Academy. It was founded ten years ago and is under the direction of the Southern Kansas society of, the Congregational church. During the first five years of its existence the academy fell behind in its expenses $800 a year. During the last three 1500 of debt has been paid. The debt which it is now sought to raise is the interest on $3,000 which was expended for furnishing the building. The interest is behind two years. Henry WTatterson was engaged last winter but he did not prove a financial success as he had to be paid $200 for his services. Mr. Ingalls donated his services, even in sisting on paying his hotel bill and other personal expenses. The institution ex pects to realize about $350 from his com ing. Prof. E. G. Lancaster, Amherst '85, has been principal of the school the last three years but retires this year. There are four other instructors. A fine class of twenty-one, fourteen girls and seven boys was graduated this year. After the lecture Thursday night a delightful spread was given in the Hotel Greenwood at which Senator Ingalls, Judge L. D. Davis, Capt. W. R, Hardy, members of the graduating class and others were present. THE ONLY PAPER. The. State Journal was the only daily paper which published a report of Senator Ingalls' visit to Eureka and his speech there. Other papers were so badly scooped that they did not even mention the fact of his visit to Eureka at all. Senator Ingalls' address included much of his new lecture, and was highly interesting and important. The Journal sent a special reporter to Eureka to record the event. The Journal can alwaya be looked to for newspaper en terprise. As a matter of useful information It may be stated that whenever a cooking receipt calls for a baking powder the "Royal" should be used. The receipt will be found to work better and surer, and the bread, biscuit, rolls, cakes, dump lings, crusts, puddings, crullers or what ever made, will be sweeter, lighter, finer-flavored, more dainty, palatable and wholesome.

The Australian starting- machine Is the development of the last two years. It Is constructed of two posts, planted firmly on either side of the track in as many places as there are distances for races. These posts are braced In the direction of the track, with wire guy ropes running from the ground to their tops, very much after the manner in which the center poles of circus tents are held In place. The wire braces on the side on which the start is to be made form a sort of iaclined plane. The barrier is attached to these braces at the ends by means of ground pulleys. These pulleys are attached to the top of the posts by means of strong rubber bands, so that when the barrier is drawn it will be on a level with the heads of the horses in waiting for the start. When ready to be released the barrier is carried to the top of the posts almost instantaneously with the touching of the button. The barrier itself is formed of eight tight ropes stretched parallel to each other at intervals of two or three inches. The barrier is re leased by means of an electrio button attached to the post alongside of the starter's box, whose sole duty is to see that the horses are close up to the screen. The whole machine is exceedingly light and simple in construction. THAT RAINWATER IS HERE The Flood From Western Kansas Raises the River Three Feet. The Kansas river has more water in it now than at any time for over a year. The June rise is here. Yesterday morning the sand bars were bare; but this morning they are out of sight. The water guage at 8 o'clock this morning showed a rise of three feet and four inches above low water mark, but the water has been so far below low wa ter mark for several months that the guage don't begin to show the actual rise. When the news reports came in from western Kansas last week and told about a rainfall of from four to six inches everywhere and from eight to ten inches in Norton county, many people were skeptical but the evidence of a tremen dous rainfall far out in the west has at last reached us. The wild waves of water that have come from the west brought with them foam bubbles and drift wood. The water is still going up. The statistics show that there is used in the manufacture of the Royal Baking Powder more than half of all the cream of tartar consumed in the United States or all purposes. The wonderful sale hus indicated for the Royal Baking Powder greater than that of all other baking powders combined ie perhaps the highest evidence of the superiority of this article, and of its indispeusable ness to modern cookery.

Topeka lost to Emporia again yester day in the ball game at Athletic park. This makes the first time this season that Topeka has lost two straight games and now the fans are swearing and de manding an all round change. Even New York and Chicago some times do as bad, and if the managers listened to the blatant howl of the out siders, as Manager Mote gives evidence of doing, they might discharge their en tire clubs a dozen of times a year. A week ago when the Topeka team was playing almost faultless ball they were applauded to the skies, and now be cause they lose two games every one de mands a changa Who ever knew of a ball player who did not have his off days? If this principle of chang ing is to ba kept up through out the Beason we may expect to have a raw team all summer. Some of the play ing yesterday was reprehensible, but it was no worse than is often seen in big ger games. If it had not been for an accident in the fourth inning Topeka would have won the game hands down. There were three men on bases when Randolph of Emporia came to the bat. There were two men out and Ran dolph had two strikes, when the batter was hit in the head by a pitched ball. It looked for a time as if he had been killed, but he was brought around all right, however, Switzer, who was pitching for Topeka, could not regain his equilibrium and Roy Evans who took Randolph's place at the bat knocked the first ball over the fence. Roy Evans also took Randolph's place in the box and fooled the Topeka batters just as he did the day before. That is why the game was lost. A close exami nation of the score will show, that the game was not so bad after all. Topeka made six errora and Emporia aa many.

STATE JOURNAL SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 8, 1895. TO PREVENT WRECKS. Topeka Man Invents a Block Sys tem of Signals. ROCK ISLAND WILL TRY IT. Other Itallroad S(wi mt Interest JVewa Item in Topeka and. AIs Kansas Lines. A new block system for railroad sig nalling' to prevent head and rear end col lisions, has been invented by Judson Shoecraft of Topeka who is the origina tor of the block system now in use on gome of the roads. The invention is attracting some atten tion among railroad men and the Rock Island will give Shoecraft's inrention a trial and it will be put in for an experi ment. The apparatus looks much like a switch target and these targets will be placed two or three miles apart. The target operates by clock work attached to an electric magnet A battery is carried on the engine which, when it passes over the track next the target starts the clock work which turns the target so as to indicate that a train has parsed. When the engine passes the next target two or three miles further on the target and that first passed is turned back to the "safe" point, the two targets being connected by wires. The point is that an engineer approach ing from either way may know by the signals whether a train is two or three miles in front or behind him. SANTA FE SPIKES. Item of Intere.t From the l'ardl, Shops and Lower Offices. C. C. Siler, formerly assistant foreman of the Santa Fe shops here, has returned from Raton, where he has had charge of the shops for two months past, and is at his old place again. Frank Allanger. chairman at the round house, had an eye badly hurt by a flying piece of iron. The injury will not be permanent Fred Heady, engineer, and John Clark, fireman, went oil a switch in the Kansas City yards with Santa Fe engine No. 600 Thursday evening. Clark was not hurt, but Heady had a leg bruised badly. It was the fault of a switchman. The en gine is in the shops. A total of 1,300 men are now employed at the Santa Fe shops. Eight hundred in the machine shops work ten hours a day and 50'J in the car shops work eight hours a day. C. T. McClellan, receiver of the South western and superintendent of Santa Fe's eastern division, has gone to Maine with his family for a short visit to his old home near Portland. The Santa Fe car shops are just now busy repairing stock cars and refrigera tor cars. Lots of the latter are being sent out looking like new. Train Dispatcher McMyrtria of the Santa will take his lay off next month. He has not decided where he will take it, but will probably go north and attend the meeting of train dispatchers at Min neapolis next week. James Snider, who has been off two wpeks, will return to work in the Santa Fe machine shops Monday. Fred Sandmire, who had a hand mashed in a cog wheel three months ago, is again at work in the Santa Fe shops. BETTER INSURANCE. The B. or R. T. Now Has Three Leaders A KtDias Man Get an Oftloe. George Thomas of the Santa Fe who has been at Galesburg, Illinois, for the past two weeks representing Golden Bait Lodge Xu 48 of Topeka at the international meeting of the Brother hood of Railway Trainmen has returned broke but happy. His account of the trip rX a glowing one. There were 476 representatives there and when not in session they were kept busy with social things. One night the Union hotel gave them a banquet at which there were 5J0 plates and the ladies' auxiliary at Galesburs fixed up a diuce or a picnic almost every evening. Nearly half the delegates had their wives with them. In the election P. II. Morrisey of Galesburg, was elected grand master to replace S. E. Wilkinson who has held the place for twelve years. One Kansas man got a placa W. G. Lee of Kansas City was made first vice president The most important business the meet ing got through with was the changing of the insurance plan to make it into three grades. Before the meeting there was only one grade, 1,200; now there are three, $400, 300 and $1,200. The nm is compulsory and the entire three can be carried if the member desires. The Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen wa3 organized in 1883 and now has 537 lodges with a membership in the United States and Canada of 23,000. In Kansas alone there are twenty-two lodges with a combired membership of over l,u00. Goldwn Belt lodge, of Topeka, has a membership of thirty-five, and meets on the first and third Sundays in the month Bt Trades' Assembly halL Andy O'Byrne is master, C A. Keece is vice master, George Thomas is secretary, U. A. May is financier and A. W. Cameron is pas't toaster. The next meeting of the grand lodge will be at Toronto, Canada, in May of l!y7. The health authorities of a number of States have recently made exhaustive examinations of the baking powders with the uniform result of finding the Royal superior to all others. A NEW TRAD 31 ARK.

It first appears on the handsome twenty-four page souvenir the road ia issuing to the teachers for the Denver meeting in July. TO LEAVENWORTH NOW. The Santa Fe Excursion Goes to Lotsd worth the 22nd for a Quiet Time. The canvass of the shops was com pleted today Hnd it has been decided for the severalth time that the Santa Fe shops annual excursion will go to Leav enworth this year. The fare will be six ty cents for the round trip and at least two thousand people will go. It is open to railroad men and their families only and will be on Saturday June 22. A great deal will be done to entertain the visitors at Leavenworth. There will be Bide trips to the fort an to the Soldiers' Home and at 9:30 the soldiers at the fort will give a dress parade for the visitors. The start will probably be made from Topeka at 6:30. There will be races of various kinds during the day and prizes for dancing and bowling and bicycling. It is announced by the management that the best of order will be preserved ou the train going and coming and ladies can ride ia any car. Heretofore the in toxicated men who have made trouble are in almost every instance interlopers who are not railroad men at all. Pains will be taken to exclude them. ROCK ISLAND RUMBLINGS. A Few Little Things Discovered About the Western Offices. It is officially announced that General Superintendent A. J. Hitt, of the Rock Island, will not take a party in his spec ial car to the Corbett-Fitzsimmens light at Dallas next October. W. E. Dauchey, superintendent of construction of the Rook Island, has re turned from his western trip, and reports that dozens of culverts and small bridges were washed out last week from Manka to to the Colorado line. They are being replaced with substantial stone arches as rapidly as possible. IL A. Parker, assistant to the president of the Rock Island, was in Topeka a short time today on his way west on a trip over the western divisions. The Rock Island took forty-eight Philips excursionists to California yee terday; they had two cars. Monday will be the Rock Island pay day, and the Horton shops' 600 will prob ably receive their checks by Tuesday. General Passenger Agent Anderson of the Rock Island is in Chicago for a day or two. To manufacturers like the Royal Bak ing Powder Company, the public is un der a large debt of gratitude for the in creased purity of articles of food sold at the present day. The reports of the of ficial government investigations of bak ing powers show the Royal to be strong er and purer than any other. It is quite evident that neither ingenuity, science nor expense can in any way improve upon the Royal Baking Powder as now before the public. TOPEKA OFFICE NOTES.

A Large Audience Listens to It at the First M. E. Church. Mr. Franz Zedeler is an artistic violin ist Also Mr. N. A. Krantz brings forth charming music from the pipe organ, while Mr. Sigfred Laurin interprets Liszt on the piano. These three gen tlemen and Mr. George Hapgood com pose the Swedish Concert company, from Bethany college, at Lindsborjr, Kans. e They are professors of music in the college. The Epworlh League .brought them here. The First Methodist church was about two-thirds filled with music-loving peo ple last evening. Mr. N. A. Krantz opened the evening's entertainment with a pipe organ solo, well played. Later on he played the "Pilgrim Chorus," from Tannhauser. He also singe; he favored the audience with a pleasing ballad. "The Deep Cold Sea" was Bung by Mr. George Hapgood, in a deep bass voice. He was recalled and responded with that old time favorite, "The Mighty Deep." In the quartette numbers he played a cornet Probably the liveliest pianist that has been in Topeka lately was Mr. Sigfred Laurin. He played two numbers by Liszt, the first being the "Campaaella Rhapsody," and the other "Concert Waltz (Paraphrase)." In the latter the stirring strains of the Faust waltz ap pear. His expression is excellent, but he made several mis-strokes last evening in some of the forte parts. He has a peculiar way of jerking his hands up after striking the keys. Often he lifted his hands above his head. This amused the audience. Jolly little Franz Zedeler was the star of the evening. His technique is excel lent, his expression peculiar to his per sonality, and his tone beautiful. He played two solos on his rare old violin and receivod a vociferous applause. His encore numbers were just right bright and short There were two quartette numbers. In these Mr. Zedeler played the violin, Mr. Krantz the viola, Mr. Hapgood the cornet and Mr. Laurin the piano. The first number was a selection from Tannhauser, the "Evening Star," and the second, an overture by Suppe. Both were pleasing, but the audience liked the solos better. The concert was, on the whole, very good even better than the one given here by them last year. Tonight these gentlemen, who hail from Sweden, will give a concert at the First Lutheran church. The true test of a baking powder is well known to every housekeeper. It is to try it in making bread, cake, etc., and we are of the opinion that It will be impossible to remove from the minds of our housewives the conviction long ago formed from the application of this prac tical test, that the Royal does make the best, the most, and the most wholesome. TO LOOK IS TO FARMING. Secretary Coburn Want Information from Pre. Fairohild on Hi European Vixlt. Secretary Coburn of the state board of agriculture has written a letter to Presi dent Fairchild of the state agricultural college nt Manhattan, requesting him to investigate agriculture in the countries he visits in the interest of the state board of agriculture. President Fairchild has been asked to report his investigations in a paper to be read before the annual meeting of the board of agriculture next January. President Fairchild and party will sail for Europe about July 15. COMPLAINT AUUUt CONTRACTS. Topeka Firms Bid Low Enougrh to Get Contracts They Didn't Get. Some of the local merchants are dissat isfied with the way the state board of charities let the contracts for state sup plies this week. A Junction City firm was given the contract fur mop handles, although a To peka firm bid 20 cents less ou handles of the same make. It is also charged that the sugar con tract went to a firm which bid 25 cents a hundred more than a Topeka firm. The Topeka merchants say there is nothing new in this way of distributing state contracts, but they had supposed a "business administration" would recog nize the lowest bidder more frequently than ordinary political machines.

Charles Orendorf Takes a Big Dose of Laudanum. WAS SUFFERI5G FROM J8EL4KCH0LY After a Lane Deblock and Keaolved tm End Hie Life by Poison. The third suicide within a space of two weeks occurred in Topeka last night Charles Orendorf, a -barber, and well known took laudanum early in the even ing and died this morning at 5:30 at his home. Orendorf lived in the back rooms of what was the Whittlesy grocery store at the corner of Eighth and Madison streets. He came to Topeka two years ago from Kansas City and went to work for Conrad Myers at the corner of Seventh and Kaneas avenue. Three weeks ago he began work in the Central barber shop. He was in the habit of getting on periodical sprees and had just completed one of about two weeks duration winding up in the city prison under a $3 fine yesterday morn ing. In the afternoon he was released by the jailer to go up town and get a balance of his fine 75 cents. He had paid $1.50 all he had and borrowed 75 cents of a fellow prisoner. He paid the balance before supper time went home immediately after and took the dose that killed him. He had threatened suicide before and the cause of it is known to be his habit of drinking which always left him badly shattered and very penitent. When Harry Smith killed himself early in the week Orendorf told N. L. Flunton, who was well accquainted with him, that he would soon follow. He said at the jail yesterday afternoon that they would never see him again, but laughed and joked as he said it It is said Orendorf and his wife did not live happily, and the fault was his. Her support from him was meagre, though they had three children, the old est a girl of six. Mrs. Orendorf does not seem to feel the blow heavily. She is a handsome young German woman with light hair and blue eyes, and talked freely about her husband's demise. When he went home last evening Orendorf must have taken the lauda num soon after entering the house. He talked very penitently, begging hi3 wife to forgive him. He had not done right and he knew it, he said. He told her it would soon be over though and kissed each of the children affectionately "goodbye." He had often talked that way and his wife was not alarmed. There was a bed in the front room and he lay down on it soon after eight o'clock. At ten he arose and told his wife he had taken poison and was going to die and asked that she call Mr. Scholes next door to pray for him. He staggered and again lay down on the bed. When the unconsciousness began to come on Drs. McGuire and Miner were called but in spite of their eiforts the man did not speak again. He died at 5:30 and was taken to the undertaking rooms of DeMoss Penwell where an inquest will be held this afternoon. Orendorf was 36 years old, of medium height with a smooth, good natured face and light complexion. He was a member of A. O. U. W. lodge No. 11 and was insured for 2,000 which his widow gets. His mother and a brother live at Edward, Mo., and their wishes will be followed regarding the funeral. They have not yet been heard from.

He Believes People Ought to Do Their Own Thinking, and Not Accept the Thoughts of Their Ancestors Willing to Teach Others A Few Words Which All Should Head. People are laboring under great mis apprehension regarding their eyes. In the first place they think, or rather they have been taught, that they should not assist their eyes until they are obliged to do so. They have been made to believe that they should not put on glasses until they could see no more. They never investigated this matter themselves. They take it for granted because their ancestors told them so. It is in this line like in a great many others. They were brought up to be lieve certain things because their an cestors believed them in fact they thought that it would make them un happy to believe otherwise. The people of today ought to be a thinking people. Do your own reasoning. It costs you nothing to investigate. Prof. Samuels claims that it is the duty of each and every person to inves tigate mistakes no matter in what branch they are. The trouble with most people is that they copy the errors of their pre decessors. Prof. Samuels is no copyist. He knows quite well that the public were misled regarding their eyes and health. As ia well known, he is origi nal, and not a plagiarist He claims that a great many diseases ought to be treated through the eyes, that they can be reached there, and that a school ought to be established to teach this doctrine. Prof. Samuels would be will ing to teach people, but he can't be all over the world. If all those suffering with nervousness will call on him he will euro them, through treatment of the eyes alone. His hours are from 9 a. m. to 5 p. m, DENOUNCE BOODLEISM. Chicago People Burn an Alderman in Effigy and Call Him Traitor. Chicago, June 8.

San Francisco, June 8. Gustav Row an, one of the survivors of the Colima, has sent a communication to the Call in which ho says: "You can find out what 1 say is true if vou will see the other men picked up, Some of them will not dare to tell the truth, as they have been promised money to keep still. "The Colima was lost because she was badly handled by officers without capac ity and bad men when the gale Btruck us. When I saw that the ship was go ing to sink. I went after the life preservers and commenced to give them out to the passengers. The steward told me to let them alone and ordered me forward. I was saved because 1 got a life preserver and if the others had been allowed to get them too, many would have been saved with me. "The passengers were kept penned up until the last moment and then made to go down in the ocean like a pack of dogs. "If some of the passengers had killed the Stewart who kept them from getting safety, it would have been a mercy to the others. In spite of what he told me. I kept giving out life preservers, and by this saved some of the people from death." Rowan, who was badly injured in the wreck, also says that he did not receive proper care on the San Juan, and charges the surgeon of the ship with gross negli gence. Ihe Chronicle says this morning as a result of the Colima disaster a number of suits for damages will be brought against the Pacific Mail company. Among them is L. Ii. Brewer, the wealthy planter, whose wife and three children went down on the Colima. WHICH DIED FIRST? A Fortune Depends on Whether Prof. Whiting or Bli Wife Died Firjt. San Francisco, June 8. The fate of an estate valued at $200,000 depends upon whether Prof. Harold Whiting, of the university, who was lost on the Colima, died before or after his wife, who was drowned on tha same voyage. Just before Prof. Whiting started on his fatal voyage, he made two wills, which he mailed to an old college friend who is now an attorney at Cambridge, Massachusetts. One was to the effect that if he should be drowned, his estate should go to the surviving members of his family. The other was that in case he and his wife and children were all drowned his estate should revert to the members of his family living in the east If Prof. Whiting died first nis wile and children immediately became his heirs, but if Mrs. Whiting aiea tatec ner ueira would inherit small fortune to the exclusion of the heirs of Prof. Whiting in the east Two persons who said they were re presentatives of attorneys have called on A. J. Sutherland and asked him some significant questions. Sutherland was on the same raft with the Whitings and tried to save the professor's life. Suther land was asked whether Whiting or his wife died first While the cool headed survivor believes that Mrs. Whiting met her death some time before her husband sank into a watery grave, he could not possibly answer the question as he did not see Mrs. Whiting during the storm.

It Costa Sluch More in Labor Than la Dimes and Cents. Magazine covers assuredly are not new. They greet us on every side, but,1 nevertheless thoy always make accepta ble gifts. The one given here is novel; in its material and has the merit of costing more in labor than in pence. The hard times have not j-et entirely; vanished. Their traces still remain,! and many a generous heart is curtailed by lack of means. The magazine covcr; need cost only an absurdly few cents,' and at the same time is both serviceable and attractive. To make it, buy one-half yard of' tailor's canvas. The color is that of. unbleached linen and makes a most de sirable background. The width is just sufficient to allow of the necessary folds. Turn under each cut edge of the canvas until it is just a little longer than an ordinary magazine and lightly catstitch them in place. That is, use big stitches and do not catch them through to the right side. When that is done fold under each selvage edge A simple case. for three inches and buttonhole the four ends of the pockets so made.' Lastly, apply the decoration. Fold the cover exactly in half and press it, then paint on the canvas any suitable de-' sign in monochrome, enlivened by touches of gold. Brown is always good, and perhaps gives the best results, but black, red and almost anything you prefer can be used. In the case of the model the letters and ribbon are in red brown, outlined with gold. The flowers are painted flat, and show the same coloring, only the gold predominates.' They are not designed to be realistic, and are really only suggested forms. The effect is very charming and the cover has been greatly admired by' many folk. N. Y. Recorder. BEWARE OF SKINS. An Important Caution with Bejrard to the Sating of Fruit. Fruit skins carry germs and are no' more intended for human sustenance, than potato skins, melon rinds or pea, pods. The bloom of the peach is a' luxuriant growth of microbes, that of grape only less so; and when these skins are taken into the stomach they, find most favorable conditions for their lively and rapid development which cause the decay of the fruit before it is possible to digest it. This is the rea-' son many persons think they cannot; eat raw fruit. If they would in all cases, discard the skin they could derive only good from the fruit itself. Nature provides the skin for the protection of the fruit from the multitude of germs' which are ever ready to attack it, as is evidenced when the skin is bruised or. broken in any way. The microbes at once begin their work of decay, and the fruit is unfit for food. Children are chief offenders in respect to this rule and should be carefully watched, and frequently cautioned. A dainti-; ness as to the condition of fruit should! also be cultivated, to prevent its being eaten unripe, or too old, on the verge of decay. Remember that it is sweet and ripe fruit, in prime condition only that is recommended. Farmers' Voice.

I almost forget the years that have passed when I see you looking just as the last time we met, said the stranger, hold-" ing out his hand. Lilly was surprised and bewildered by the familiar address, but she placed her hand in hla, and just then Lilly's uncle entered, and said "Ah, so you have found our little one, PauL Is she not wonderfully like her mother? Come, she is waiting to see you." And then Lilly and Paul Krving both knew that the bud had been mistaken for the blossom, but there was no explanation then. Lilly returned with her partner to the dancing salon, but there was no longer any enjoyment for her there. Her mind was filled with thoughts of the handsome stranger. A little while longer, which seemed an age to Lilly, and she saw him advancing. With the familiarity of an old friend, he led her off for a promenade, and then he told her of his being a very old friend of her mother and how much she was like the Lillian ho knew SO years before. And when every day or evening found him with them, the beautiful mother grew more beautiful, and seemed very happy; whilo her child, her merry hearted, laugh ing Lilly, bacaine pale and quiet. Lillian saw the change in her child, yet never dreamed the cause. The thought of her merry little Lilly loving Paul, a grave, quiet man, old enough to be her father, never entered her mind. Then, like a flash of lightning, the knowledge came, so sudden that she al most sank beneath it. Both loved Paul; one must suffer. Lilly's happinesa must be secured, if possible. How should she act to accom plish that? While the mother was pondering over what to do, Lilly had decided. She knew well how dear Paul Krving was to her mother, and from her uncla she had heard how they were separated in their youth. She would go away, even though Paul loved her, which she sometimes thought he did, and leave her mother to win the love she was willing to resign to secure happiness for her. So Lilly, with a sad heart, went to visit among relatives, a set of merry girls as were ever found. Every day brought soma new engagement of pleasure, every even ing a party or concert, so Lilly had no chance to indulge in gloomy reveries. Weeks grew into months before Lillian welcomed her child home again. In the meantime Paul had again sought her hand. Eut she could not answer hint until Lilly came back. Lilly saw tbs anxious gaze and knew well what her mother was thinking, so, clasping her arms lovingly around her, she asked "Mamma, when are you going to give me the right to love Mr. Erving as much as I choose?" "Lilly, do you love Paul Erving?" "Indeed I do, mamma, almost as much as I do you, and I wish you would give me the right to call him father." With a prayer of thankfulness Lillian pressed her child to her heart, and there was perfect confidence between them. "Tell me, Lilly, what taught you the mistake you had made with regard to your affection for Paul?" "Mamma, I have been trying to tell you." And then, hiding her face on her mother's bosom, she whispered, "Another, mamma, so different, one I can never re sign, except with life." "Why, my child, who la he that haa taught you to love thus?" "Oh, mamma, you will think it so strange! I scarcely can tell. I have never spoken one word to him, and cannot say I know his name. "He is a young officer. My cousins and I very frequently visited the dress parades at the 'Ponti.' There I saw him. There was something about him which reminded mo of Mr. Erving, but he is very young about 20r I think. I believe I began to love him right away." "I could have found out his name, but X would not inquire; I was fearful the girla would suspect me. Often I saw him, and soon noticed that he watched for my com ing, and a smile of recognition and satis faction would always greet me. Yet ha never sought an introduction. "We had met this way for three weeks, and then he was ordered suddenly off. The day he loft I received an exquisite bouquet. I stole with it to my room, hunted among the sweet flowers, sweeter still for the dear little note I found hidden there." And her mother read: I am suddenly ordered off. I could bo longer resist and have sought an introduction. I should have been with you tonight. Fate is against me. If I live, I shall find and tell you what you must suspect. Faithfully, E. E. "And you know not his name, my child?" "No. I suppose he thought I did, so he only signed his initials." Lillian was again promised to Paul. A few days before their wedding he said "Lillian, I bring a young friend to pre sent to you." A little stir caused Lillian to look and 6ee her lover standing in the door. An swering his gesture, she followed him into the library, and was scarce seated when she heard a cry of surprise from Lillian. Seated beside her, clasping her hand, Paul Erving had told Lillian that, a few months after the news of her marriage, he had yielded to the persuasion of his mother and wedded a distant cousin, a frail little creature, who only lived long enough to place in his arms their boy that he had delayed telling her this at first why, he knew not. Afterward, a letter from his son, re ceived while Lilly was visiting her friends, determined him to wait, and give tbem a surprise that he hoped would be an agreea ble one, and Paul concluded by saying: "He is with her now, renewing her ac quaintance. They have met before. "Do you'mean to say" "Yes; that my boy is as desperately in love with your child as his father was with her mother 20 years ago. Exchange. Lost, a Brother's Ashes. A novel claim is being made upon one of the great French railway companies. A gentleman who came to Paris to have the body of his deceased brother cremated at the crematorium at Pere Lachaiso ceme tery took the ashes away in a handbag, and, previous to setting out on his return Journey to his home in the country, de posited the bag at the" consigns" or cloak room of the railway station. When he came back to elaim it, it was gone. Some one had conie and claimed a bag, and it had been given up, probably by mistake. Inquiries were instituted, but the missing bag could not be discovered. The gentle man has therefore brought action to recov er damages for the loss he has sustained, and the judges will be called upon to de cide what is the money value of a brother's ashesLndpn JDally i?ew,

Very well, let us take them at their word, as men are sup posed to tell the truth until the contrary is shown, and they certainly ought to know better than any one else what they have and what not. Now comes a St. Louis firm, the Black Tonic Medicine Co., and tells us they have in Black Tonic a cure-all. They ay they know what they are talking about and are able and willing to prove it to any one's satisfaction. Biack Tonic is the only remedy in the world, today, for which any such claim is made, and for the substantiation of which claim the proof is ready. As it is a well known fact that there are many kinds of ills held to be incura ble with any or all the other medicines in the world, it is evident that Black Tonic is a greater remedy not only than any other single remedy, but a greater remedy than all others combined, be cause it cures all ills. "We would strong ly recommend our readers to investi gate this wonderful remedy. AN EXPLANATION OF ITS PECULIAR POWER. Impurities in the blood are the cause of disease, and the nature of the impuri ties determine the nature of the disease. As the blood i3 present everywhere in the system it naturally absorbs impurities of the system; so, all impurities of the blood will necessary contaminate the general system; for if these impurities are present, disease naturally follows. The bowels, liver, kidneys, akin and lungs, are the organs whose duty it is to remove the impurities from the blood and discharge them from the body. As long as their capacity to do this is not impaired, either from over work or some oiher cause, the individual will be well, otherwise disease is sure to follow, either acute or chronic. What is now needed is a stimulant to strengthen and increase their activity, causing them to do extra work in removing impuriteis from the blood and discharging them from the body; having accomplished this, the dis ease caused by these impurities, will dig appear with them. Such a stimulant you will find in Black Tonic; it strengthens and stimulates to increased activity and flushes the bow els, liver, kidneys, skin and lungs, and through these the blood and the entire system; rapidly removing all impurities and causing all ills, aches or pains, sick ness or disease to vanish like a night mare. DANGEROrS MEDICINES. There are many edicines which are to be taken in small doses; did you ever Btop to think why you are asked to take small doses onlyr We will tall you: it is because they are made of powerful and dangerous drugs, large doses of which would be apt to prove fatal to life. In Black Tonic you have a medicine that on the contrary you are asked to take large doses of, the larger the better lor you and the quicker the benefits de rived therefrom. In taking Black Tonic a double dose ia better and more affective than three ordinary doae3 taken at in tervals. This mav seem paradoxic!. but it 13 the fact, just the eauie as that two horses pulling together will move a load that three horses pulling alternately cannot Duoge. it is impossible to take too much tflack ionic; on the contrary. the more freely you take it the quicker it will restore you to health. When freely taken, Black Tonic works genuine miracles, of this a short trial will quickly convince you. Get a bottle at your drug store at once. Awarded Highest Honors World's Fair.

The Evidence in the Nevels Case is Ended. ARGUMENTS OF LAWYERS BEGIN. evU Has Been Tried, for Harder Once Before, and One Time for Burglary. The defense in Frank Novels murder trial has "rested," and today has been consumed by evidence in rebuttal by both sides to disprove what the other has said. This morning at 11 o'clock, at the re quest of County Attorney Safford, the jury went in a body to the Matson house, in charge of Bailiff John Coyne. They were cautioned to ask no questions and to talk to no one, or even among them selves, about what they saw there. This afternoon, after the defease has introduced what little rebuttal evidence it has it will not be much the lawyers will make their arguments to the jury. This will take until past the supper hour. The jury will probably be locked up over Sunday unless they can agree tonight. NeTll on the Stand. Frank Nevels occupied the witness stand all of yesterday afternoon in his own behalf. He began his testimony shortly after 2 o'clock, and the court room clock indicated 5:38 when the lawyers were through with him. From a court standpoint Novels made a good witness. He was positive in his manner of speaking and he skilfully avoided most of the legal traps set for him. If Nevels is guilty and is the scoun drel that he is painted to be, he is a smooth one. His fair education, good command of language, and quick brain were evidenced in many of his responses. Nevels on the stand acted much the same as he has throughout the trial. He has baen composed, and aside from a worried look sometimes, the exprassion of his face has been sphinx-like and stolid. At no time during the trial has he smiled, nor has he display ed the slightest emotion. Hia feelings, if he'- haa any, have been concealed by a control over his face that is remarkable. There was an immense crowd in at tendance. People swarmed in every corner of the court room. A few of the bolder ones even climbed up and leaned against Judge Hazen's desk and stood on the steps to the desk, and threatened to crowd Judge llazen oC the "Dench. Bailiff John Coyne bristled with import ance and had all he could do to keep order when he wasn't serving ice-water just fresh from the court house hydrant to the thirsty jurors ana lawyers. Nevels' testimony was about what was expected of him, in most respects. He claims to have left Topeka for Winfield on the night of December 11, a day be fore the murder was committed. Re garding his two confessions he admits making them, or most of them, but says he was persecuted into it. He says now that all he said in his confession was false in toto. The state, however, proved sev eral things undesirable, from his own testimony. He admits that he has been arrested and tried before on the charge of murder, but escaped conviction. He also admits that he was arrested for burglary, but escaped by turning state's evidence and convicting some one else. He also admitted that when ha left Topeka on the night about the time the murder was committed, not a soul in Topeka, not even his wife, knew where he had gone. He told them he was going to Texas, when in reality he was going to Winfield. Jb rank xseveiB early testimony was given in yesterday's issue. After de scribing his visit to Winfield. the interro gation continued: Q When you returned to Topeka from Winfield, where did you first go? A To the house of Walter ilayden on Quincv street Q Then where? A I went home. Q Before leaving Topeka did you know anything of the murder of Mrs. Matson? A No. Q Did you kill Mrs. Matson? A No. Q Did you help to kill her? A No. Q Were you in any conspiracy to kill her? A No. Q Do you know anything about it more than you have read in the papers and have learned m this court room? A No. Q What did you do when you got home? A I was worn out, and I went to bed and slept till past 10 o'clock. Q When you came home from Win- neia aia you pay your larer a jo; i naven i paid any tare ou a railroad for four years. W itness then recounted the facts of hia arrest and incarceration in jail.

A From December 26 till January 24 Ki louwere visuea there were you not Dy Sheriff iiurdge and Mr. VV ilker son? VA Yes. Often. Q How often? A Nearlv every day or two. Q What was the object of their visits? A 1 o get me to talk about the murder. uia Mr. iiurdge tell you not to talk to the police; that they were Pops and would soon be out, and couldn't do you any good; and that he had influence with the prosecuting attorney, while they didn t? A He said about that. U Did he tell vou that he believad Matson was mixed up in the murder and mat ne tnought the Miltons also had something to do with it? A Yes. i imu i ne promise you that it you would lestiry agamBt Matson and the Miltons you could have your liberty and tne rewara too that all he wanted was glory? A He said something like that Did you write a decoy letter to Mr. Matson at ths sheriffs suggestion? A Yes. Q What letter? name did you sign to the A Daniel Crockett Q What address did you give? k A 134 Van Jtluran atcaat. OVhiafe. the street number of the county jail and sheriff's residence.

State if any part of those stories were true? A No, they were all false, Q Tell this court how you came to tell those stories? A I was persecuted into it forced into it Q What do you mean by that? A I mean that I had several talks with Mr. Wilkerson in which he tried to get me to tell something about the murder. I was put in the sweat-box by his orders. Finally he got mad and made his talk so strong that I concluded he would convict me, guilty or innocent 1 merely tried to comply with his re quest (J Ihen those "clues you gave him were all false? A They were so far as I know. Q Were you connected in any wav with the murder of this woman? A I was not Q Were you in any conspiracy to get any papers of hers? A 1 was not Q Did you know of any such conspir acy at the time? A I did not Q What ia vour present financial con dition? A Very embarrassing. (Laughter). Q Had you any money to light this case?

A JNo sir; they couldn't Q State your father's financial condi tion, if you know? A I believe it is pretty much the same as mine. Q He is a common day laborer, ia he not? A He is. Nevels Cross-Examined. County Attorney Safford here began the cross-examination of Novels, and started by inquiring into Nevel3 past. which showed that he was born in Texas, years ago. It wa3 shown also that since he left Texas when he was 11 years old he has worked at various trades in cluding baking and printing in Oswego, Chetopa, Wellington, Winfield, Junction City and half a dozen other liansas towns before coming to Topeka. He had also gone to school at Cincinnati at two different times. Nevels was startled when, without the slightest warning. County Attorney Saf ford blurted out with the question: "Were you ever arrested for murder before?" A No. Q Were you not arrested for the mur der of a man named Van Cleve in Cow lev countv several years ago? A 1 was arrested as a witness in the case. Q As a matter of fact were you not tried by a jury for that murder? A Yes; I guess I was. Q What was the case against you? A Thev thought the gun that the man was shot with belonged to me. Q What was the result of the trial? A They couldn't prove anything against me, so I was acquitted. y now many times nave you Deen arrested for burglary? A Can I explain that? Q Answer it by yes or no. A No. Q Is it not a fact that you were ar rested at Wellington for burglary, and went free by turning state's evidence? A I won t admit that I was arrested as a decoy in order to catch some other people. I was released on a "straw bond" and never came to trial. (The slate expects to disprove this in rebuttal by the man who was sheriff at Welling ton at the time.) Q Have you been arrested any other times? A I don't know of any others. Q Do you know a woman who is gen erally called Josie Nevels? A Y as. Q Were you married to her? A No. Q Did you live together as man and wife? A Yes. Q How long? A About a year and a half.

Other late Witnesses. Ex-Justice A. F. Chesney was called to the stand after Nevels finished, to testify regarding a point in Mrs. Sam Milton's testimony at the preliminary examina tion. J. W. Carey testified briefly and told of the geographical surroundings of the Nevels house, especially with regard to the ravine, the width and depth of which caused a wide difference of opinions among the witnesses on both sides. Honry Evans, father of George H. Evans the contractor, who has lived in Topeka twenty-nine years, said he had known Albert Matson sixteen years. He testified regarding Matson's appearance in order to substantiate the description given by George Hightower, who claims to have seen Matson in Topeka the day after the murder was discovered. Evidence in Rebuttal. The principal witnesses today were T. B. Jennings and C. P. Bolmar. Weather Observer Jennings had his records with him to prove that the night of December 12th was clear. This testimony was advanced by the state to disprove Charles McMillan's tes timony. He said he was passing Mrs. Matson's house about 9 o'clock and saw Mrs. Matson talking to two men. They were in the dining room and he saw them through the north window from Monroe street. McMillan testified that he was sure of the date, because it was a drizzly, wet night Observer Jennings showed that the day and night of December 12th were perfectly clear, but that the night of December 10th, two days earlier, was drizzly and much such a night as had been described. J. W. Singleton, a stone-cutter by trade, living at Winfield, testified that he had been approached by Frank Nevels' father who said he "wanted to make a' witness of him." He wanted Singleton to come to Topeka and swear that he had seen Nevels in Winfield on December 12th. Undersheriff E. F. Henderson of Well ington swore that Nevels was arrested for the burglary of A. P. Wells' house, and that he was not arrested as a decoy to entrap any one else, and said that Nevels had never served in the capacity of detective in his office. Henderson swore that Nevels escaped prosecution by turning state's evidence and convicting two other men, one of whom went to the penitentiary and the other escaped with a jail sentence. lorn Wiltserson, the deputy sheriff, said he was in Winfield a week after Frank Nevels was arrested, and talked to his (Nevels') mother about the case. She swore then that Frank arrived in Winfield on Thursday, and not on Wed nesday, as she claims in her deposition, and that she fixed the date by remem bering that she did a big job of washing on that day for a woman whose name Wilkerson did not remember. John Burdge, the jailer at the county jail, swore that Nevels had not been put in' the sweat-box by Chief Wilkerson's orders. Chief Wilkerson was on the stand in rebuttal and said he talked to Rosie Nevels, Frank's wife, soon after her hus band's arrest She said to him, "It don't make any difference what Frank says, he left Topeka on December 12, Wednes day. (Nevels in order to prove an alibi had to leave Tuesday.) C P. Bolmar, Sheriff Burdge and E. B. Dailey testified to going to the Matson house in company with Chief Wilkerson, two deputy sheriffs and a Journal re porter. They went in order to make practical tests of Charles McMillan's tes timony about seeing two men through the north window talking to Mrs. Mat son. The lamp was put where McMillan said it was. The curtain was put up a3 high as It would go. Three men stood close to gether in the positions McMillan de scribed, and the result was viewed from the street by Mr. Bolmar, the sheriff, Mr. Dailey, and a reporter. Mr. Bolmar voiced the verdict of the entire party when he pronounced McMillan's testimo ny a physical impossibility. In order to see the east one of the group the persons looking had to be nearly a block away, owing to the angle of the window, and at that distance nothing could be seen but a bare outline. In order to see the middle man it was necessary to go 150 feet north of the house, and at that distance the person could not be identified. The west one of the group was the plainest to ba Been, bat he could be dis- A Timely Warning 6 To the People of Topeka.

GAY TIME AT TECUMSEH. Tlio Picnio Was a Great Success and There Was Dancinc. Three car loads of Topeka people went to Tecumseh yesterday afternoon to attend the picnic given by the Knights and Ladie3 of Security. Tecumseh council had invited the To peka members of the order, and the To peka folks were met at the train and escorted to the picnio grounds, where they enjoyed themselves until time for the midnight train. The main object of the picnic as far as the Topeka members of the order were concerned, was to have an opportunity to dance in the open air, but the members of Tecumseh council could not agree about the dance. Some of them objected to dancing and said so, and refused to assist in the en tertainment of the visitors, but the dance was the big feature of the picnic. Morgan's orchestra furnished the mu sic and Major A P. Shreve acted as prompter. There was a large number of country people present and the crowd was estimated from 509 to 800.

A special to the Herald from Key West, Fla., atya: The rumors that have been circulated here for the last twenty-four hours that a filibustering expedition has left this vicinity for Cuba has been confirmed. A small vessel came in from the gulf around the eastern end of this island and anchored close to the beach. Short ly afterward a small boat was sent ashore with messages for the leaders, who had been waiting instructions for several days. Within a short time the inhabitants of that section of the island were surprised to see bands of Cubans, heavily armed and with accoutrements strapped on their backs, going in the direction of the boats getting into small boats and being taken aboard the vessel, which remain ed at anchoraga The impression prevails that several vessels will meet at Bahia Honda, Cuba, where othSr contingents from Tampa and Jacksonville will join them, making a formidable expedition.
