JUDICIAL SLAP AT WOMEN. Judge Wilson Has a 3Bd Opinion of Their Ideas of Money Values. Cincinnati, O., July 15. For the first time in the history of America the "com ing woman" received a judicial slap. Judge Wilson, after a patient hearing of the Shubert alimony case, announced from the bench that 'any man who gives all his salary to his wife ia a fool."

Herbert A-qu th, Camp1. ell-Bai nerman and John Morley hold their seats by small majorities and all -the present indications are that closer seats will be uniformly carried by the Union. sts. It is like a Liberal. Waterloo. In Ireland the situation is deplorable. Of course there w.is the Redmond split to begin with, and now Timothy Ilealy has fatally- div.ded the AlcCarthyites party. John Paruell is the Redmouites' candidate in Meath.J At a meeting of his McCarthyite op ponent an old letter concerning him from nis Brother, Charles biewart l'arnell, was read by a priest. It was writt :-i 1883 and began as follows: "1 co i not recommend my brother John as a .ndi- date for county Barlow or an cth constituency, as I do not thina. at Irish would make a suitable representative." It is a Killkenny fight all around. It has helped put the Tories in power again for an indefinite period and Ireland will continue to be sacrificed to private hatreds and ambitions. MAY MAKE HIM EAT. Charles Roe Starving Himself at the City Prison. Charles Roe is doing his best to starve to death at the county jail. Roe is the young man who was recently brought back from Missouri on the charge of burning a house near Wash burn college last fall. During his confinement in Missouri while waiting for the Kansas officers he refused to eat and kept up his determination after he was brought here. It is now more than a week since he began refusing food and he is getting thin, Only one time is known that he' did eat. When he was first confined in the city prison here Saturday he refused to eat and Chief Wilkerson thought it was because the prison food was not good enough for him, so the chief sent a po liceman up town with a dollar for food. Soon Roe had before him a meal fit for a member of a state investigating com mittee. There was iced tea, spring chick en on toast, eggs, breakfast rolls and other nice things. Roe ate but a very little and pushed the food away. The yjung man seems determined to starve himself to death and Couuty Doc tor McClintock says that if he still re fuses to take food tomorrow he will be held and milk forced down him with a tube and if necessary a pump. THREE GIRLS IN COURT. One Was White and Two Were lllack Charged with Various Things. There were three women in the police court today one white woman and two colored! Delia Reynolds is the name of the white culprit Sue cooks at a Kansas avenue restaurant. She is also chamber maid of the apartments connected with a little hotel. Sunday one of the guests claimed he was robbed of 5 and accused Miss Reynolds of stealing it. The young woman said she didn't. It could not be proven that the girl had taken the money and she wa3 discharged. Fanny Wrright was in court again. She has become a confirmed morphine eater, and she had been eating nwre of the narcotic hist night than was good for her. She stationed herself at the corner of Third and Quincy streets and swore at every one who passed. She resisted when Officers Weliman and Washburn arrested her. She was fined 1 15. Mattie Ellison was the third woman and her offense was Btreet walking. She protested that she wasn't street walking and that she was on her way home from Elder Barker's church when arrested. This plea, how ever, would have come more effectively and with better grace from some other woman, for the Ellison girl ia known as one of the boldest pick pockets in Top e ka. She once robbed a man of $130 but the police got it bck and the victim ra fused to prosecute, her. "I will let you off light this time,' Judge Ferry said, aud .Mattie looked gad. "I fiie you .5," and (he wojaan left the court room trying to figure out where the lightness came in. RAMA l J TO RE SOLD. The Gideon and Italr Il-iclne; Stables Go Under the UaramT Today.

HOKE'S VjEWCHANGED Secretary Smith Admits He Did Favor Free Silver. But This Was in 1890 and It's Different Now. TOO BUSY TO KNOW. Indorsed Some of the Farmers' Alliance Ideas Then. Meanw hile However He Has Had Time to Ponder. Washington, July 15. Secretary Hoke Smith's attention was called today to an article published yesterday charging that he had been at one time an advo cate of the silver free coinage and sub treasury plans of the Farmers' Alliance, It was said that five years ago he pub lished a letter advocating these views. Speaking of the subject the secretary said: -,My attention has just been called to the publication of a letter written by me in September 1S9). to Hon. W. L. Peek, and published at that time in the Atlanta Journal. The Journal was then openly opposing the sub-treasury scheme and my personal opposition to it was well understood.- "The letter clearly excluded the idea of committing me to all of the seven propositions which it presented. Al though it was known that I did favor free coinage of silver, I was giving most of my attention to professional work at that time, and. supposed with out thorough investigation that the free coinage of silver would carry the value of the silver bullion coined into a dollar to par, and also keep silver and gold dollars on a parity with equal pur chasing power, "Since that I have given to the subject much more study and being thoroughly satisfied that the free unlimited aud independent coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 would result in silver mouometalism. I have for several years openly opposed it." CHINCH BUGS ANNUAL MEET Like All Other Einsana Tliey Hold a Con vention at Topeka. Topeka seems to be chinch bug head quarters for Kansas today. It would be hard to imagine a greater number of chinch bugs than Topeka people have seen today. There seems to be millions upon mil lions of them. They were everywhere. When you went to dinner they met you face to face as you turned each corner and stayed with you. PeoDle who patronize the street cars had the worst experiences with the little pests. The chinch bugs fairly swarmed on the open cars, covering the clothes of the passengers, goiug into their ears mouths and every place they were not wanted. If one lot was brushed off there was another lot there to take th pUce of the first. The public would like to know where these bugs catna from aud where they i are going-. If they are leaving j the state to get away from Prof. Snow's i exterminator no one will object or if they are going to Lawrence to be treat ed, they will still have a clear right of way. Or perhaps they are from Western j Kansas loosing for dry country. I It has been suggested by a man who i does not believe in theories that the bugs were blown in here by the high wind of I Sunday morning. Topeka wai visited in this same way in July last year.

The Attorney General Closing Up the Country Joints While the Governor Shuts the City Ones. Up IX EIGHT COUNTIES General Dawes Has Been After County Attorney?. Abilene One of the Latest Places to Go Dry. Attorney General F. B. Dawes and his assistant, Mr, A. A Godard, have been making a systematic war on the joints over the state since the governor has been closing the saloons in the cities of the first class. Nothing has been said about this at the attorney general's office until now, when the word is coming in that the joints are being closed up. General Dawes' pian is to force the county attorneys to close the joints in their own counties. He has written to the county attorneys of Labette, Brown, Linn, Geary, Ells worth, Nemaha, Sumner, Dickinson, and Sedgwick counties, and in each instance the county attorney was informed that complaint hud been received that the prohibitory law was being violated in his county and he was urged to enforce the law. In urging the county attorneys to en force the law the attorney general took pains to suggest that if the law is not en forced at once it may be necessary to ap point an assistant attorney general to do the work. Assistant Attorney General Godard says if there is any one thing which wili stir up a county attorney it is the sugges tion that an assistant attorney general may be appointed. County Attorney Wood3 of Sumner county has written that he would like the help of an assistant attorney general but Mr. Godard says from his report it is doubtful if such an officer would find anything to do. Mr. Wood. reports hav ing closed all th? joints and having se cured 6j0 worth of liquor in a raid at Caldwell. The county attorney of Sedgwick county was notified that complaint had been made that he would not commence prosecutions under the prohibitory law until costs were 'secured. He was in formed that he had no right to take such a position, and that be must enforce the law and aid the police commissioners of Wichita in every way possible County Attorney Suiiih of Dickinson county has closed all the joints in his county by making a personal visit to each place and threatening immediate prosecution if they did not shut up. The joints in Abilene have heretofore been paying regular fines of $3J a month. Word has been recttived from Pitts burg that every place in that town where liquor was sold has been closed up tight. A complaint was received today notify ing the attorney gener d that the county attorney of iitchell county is not doing his duty and that the joints are running openly in that county. '1 he attorney general is receiving nu merous letters from these counties con gratulating him on having taken hold of of this work of law enforcement. HELEN GOULD LIRERAL.

Rockefeller Is Complimented For His Charitable Giving Boston, July 15. Tonight the 14th international convention of the Y. P. S. C. E, one of the most successful meet ings in the history of the society, will close, and most of the delegates will de vote the rest of the week to sight seeing in Boston and vicinity. E. D artield of EastoD, Pa., delivered an address in Tent Willistonon "The At tractions of the Ministry to Educated Men." At Tent Endeavor an address by Rob ert E. ipeer of New York on the mia- sionary service proved a great drawing card. The address of the Rev. William i G, Puddefoot in Median. cs hall, on "JNatioual Needs and Perils." as one of the most interes ing of the meeting. He said that during the twelve years 5",000 people have been killed by violence in our own land hnd not more than 5 per cent of the guilty I ones had suffered the extreme penalty j of the law. The record of bomi- j cide has risen from 1,467 in 1832 to 9,8j0 iu '94. In twenty year3 over i.6, 000 children had been abandoned by their mothers in Nw York. He at tributed the real cause of so much crime to the scarcity of churches. "Of course," said he, ''there are other causes of crime. The rapid growth of the city at the ex- pense of the rural districts is one, and it is as true in newer sections as the old, and it works badly both ways. So that today the two points of danger lie on the frontier and in the great cities." Rev. W. E. Parke of Gloversville, N. Y,, presented the banner for the best work reported in promoting systematic and proportionate giving. The Cleve land local union was the recipient of the reward. Mr. Parke paid John D. Rockefeller a high compliment for his many charitable contributions. Prof. Gates D. D. of Iowa college spoke in Tent Williston on "The consecration of an educated life" The next speaker there was Dean Al fred A. Wright, D. D., of Auburndale, Mass., whose topic was the Bible. "Back the Bible must go into the little red school house and the Cnristiau Endeav orers will keep it there" said the dean in conclusion. A GIDDY YOUNG PAIR. Mr. SnodgrasB. Agfd 55, and Miss Speck, Aged 29, Jlpu. The simple announcement that J. Thomas Snodgrass aud Miss Anna Speck were married at 2 o'clock yesterday at the home of Dr. J. W. Kessihger at 19 Van Bureu street might uot interest the read er, but when the intelligence is added that the groom is oue of the wealthiest farmers of Pottawatomie, worth f 100,000, and is hfiy-five years old and that the bride is a w ry good looking young woman of tweeny--nine, and that her f lks are well fixed residents of Jacusou county, the read er is interested. Ihe additional intelli gence that it is an elopement does not in the least detract from the interest. After a life of careful economy J. Thomas last December found himself a widower, and worth a good deal of mon ey and laud in the vicinity of his resi dence, five miles south of Haveusville, Kansas. He had long admired Anna Speck, whose sister was the wife of his brother, and his smiles on her became noticeab.e. She was willing, and they deeded to get married. But her sis er fouud out the status of flairs and told her iolks, aud thiy regarded it as scandalous that the widnver should marry so soon. Anna lived at Soldier. An uprising against Mr. Snodgrass immediately took place in the family, inn Anna was not to be shaken so she simply allowed the old folks to think she had given Mr. Snodgrass up. Saturday evening she lefi-for. Holton, ostensibly to visit friends. Early Sunday morning lr. Snodgrass appeared there with a horse and buggy and arrange ments were muds for' a wedduig. Hardly had they become interested in the prepa rations, however, till people from .-oldier and from Havensville were noticed in town and ttie couple became alarmed. The groom whs well acquainted with Dr. Kessinger, and he telegraphed him to meet htm at the train at 1 o'clock. He did aud received a plain statement of the case. A little thing like that didi't hinder lonir, and Dr. Kessinger immediately sent a messenger for Dr. Aldersun, who married the couple at 2 o'clocK, the li cense having been procured in Holton by the bride Saturday. I A few neighbors were invited in to witness the ceremony aud the com- j pany consisted of Mr. aud Mrs. Franic Oliver, Mr. and Mrs, H. Gates, and Mr. aud Mr. W. U. Ream. 1 Dr Kessinger did ttie right thing and spread a good table for the gut-sts. The couple is still at Dr. Kessinger's place and will likely lt-uve this evening lor a short wedding trip east. LOCAL M.EX riON. A two year old son of Denton Hoge boom of Pittsburg died last evening at the residence of its grandfather. Dr. G. W. Hogebooui. The body was sent to Pinsburg this moruing for burial.

LIKETHEJGOLD BASIS. Chileans Well Satisfied With Their Xew Monetary System. Both Gold and Silver Coined and Paper Used. ALL BACKED BY COIN. Mr. Serreno Says it Will Change Rates of Exchange. This Wonld Make Balance Trade Toward Chile. of Washington, July 15. Mr. H. M. Serreno, of Valparaiso, Chile, manager of the international railway connecting Chile aud Bolivia, is in Washington, and gives interesting information of the status of affairs in that section, where rumors of war have been prevalent of late. Mr. Serreno says: "The greatest inter est in Chile just now is in the currency conversion law, resulting in a gold basis, which went into operation on June 1. It has proved very satisfactory in opera tion and gives promise of changing the rate of exchange, so that the balance of trade will turn toward Chile. "Both gold and silver are coined and the old paper money continues to be used by many who p.efer it on acceunt of convenience. But the government al ways stands ready to redeem the paper in gold, so that there is an actual coin backing for all of our money. "Before 1 left Chile," contiuued Mr. Serreno, "there was talk of trouble be tween Peru an Ecuador over their boun dary, but there was no intimation that Bolivia would join Ecuador against Peru as recent reports have stated." Mr. Ser reno says the sentiment in Chile over the Baltimore incident has died out and now there is the bt'st of feeling be tween Americans and Chileans. The talk of a coufl ct between Chile and the Argentine Republic, he says, will pass away as both countries recog-; nize that a victory to either of them would in the end cost more than it was worth. HOTTEST DAY THIS YEAR. TJ. S. Thermometer Indicates 98 Dgreee Today May B Cool, r Tomorrow. It is hot today. This" fact cannot be disputed. Few persons if any however appreciated the fact that it has been the hottest day thus far this year according to the government instruments. Such is the case, A fairly still breeze hus tended to make the hotness more bear able, but nevertheless the air has been charged with warm h to the amount of 98 degrees, according to Mr. Jennings' ius rutnents at the weather observing station. When the Jennings ther mometers say it is hot, it's so, and they generally indicate several degrees less than the instruments ou the streets. In this case, however, the two thermome ters just about tallied at 3 p. m. Yes erday .07 of an inch of rain felL Ne.ir noon today the wind began to shift to the north, which may make slightly cooler weather tomorrow. Today's bulletin says: "The barometer is below normal except in Arkansas, and the states bordering the gulf, whore it is about normal. It is low in Montana but lowest over the lakes. Clear weather prevails at all stations this morning except at St. Paul where it is cloudy. Giiod showers have fallen in the spates bordering the Mississippi riv er with light showers in Kansas during the past twenty -four hours. These con ditions favor fair weather and nearly stationary temperature tonight and Tues day. ONE MORE SUICIDE. A young woman named Lawman, who lives with her brother at the corner of Fourth and Polk streets,made an attempt on her life ;ast evening with chloroform. She was about twenty years of age and had been despondent for some time because Bhe had not the means to eo to her home in Illinois. When a brother and his wife returned fmm the cemetery last evening they found her on a bed and could not arouse her. Di. Mitchell was sent for and succeeded in bringing her to consciousness in a few hours. Her brother works for Kinley Lannan This is the third suicide or attempted suicide made yesterday. Tailors Mill All Strike New York, July 15. Delegates of the brotherhood of tailors from thirty-five shops, one from each shop, metlast night in Valhalla hall. All the delegates re ported that their employer had deter mined to resi-t the new agreement, and that the workers were in favor of strik ing. The meeting endorsed the strike. A New Loom picker. Some important advantages are claimed for a newly-devised loom picker lately brought forward, which consists of a light malleable Iron shell or frame, possessing the strength and durability essential to this important feature of weaving machinery. The body being one rigid piece of metal, there is no tear ing out of rivets around the eye, or bursting of the portion which slides along the spindles; the rawhide bushing in the sleeves cannot come loose, and it wears very slowly, and, on its giving out, can be renewed at small cost and with slight trouble so, too. with the cushion. With each replacement of any bit of rawhide, one has a picker as good as new, while under the old system a single defect necessitates the throwing aside the whole picker. The additional weight does not exceed two ounces, too small to perceptibly affect the working of the loom; and, in order to secure lightness, the eye of the picker is made much larger than is required, and bridged with a rawhide strip, copper riveted to the metah Bubscribefor tteDaily Stat J odbsa.

STATE JOURNAL, MONDAY EVENING, JULY 15, 1895. MUST PREVEHT IT, Opinion of Texas' Attorney General on Prize Fighting. Under the Present Law it Can not Take Place. PROSECUTOR'S DUTY. He Must Look to It That Law i3 Enforced. AtrsTur, Texas, July 15. Attorney General Crane has given out his opin ion in the Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight case, at Dallas. The opinion was in reply to an inquiry from the Dallas county attorneys as to whether the law enacted in 1891 prohibiting prize fighting was valid and operative. Tha attorney general, in hia opinion, holds that the law of 1391 was and still is operative. The attorney general con tends that "according to the conten tion of those who believe that the statute against prize fighting is void on account of its declaration that the crime is a felony and the punishment of a misdemeanor is applied thereto, the statute would be perfect if the word misdemeanor could be substi tuted for the word feloDy. "Following the doctrine announced in one of our court decisions, namely, 'That the intention frequently con trols the express language in the con struction of statutes,' the court was at perfect liberty to eliminate that word felony, if such elimination were neces sary to give effect to the legislative enactment. It must be plain that the court belived that the intention of the legislature was to prohibit prize fight ing. If the court further believed that the fact that the legislature affixed the punishment of a misde meanor to the offense of prize fighting and the word felony was inserted by mistake, it was at perfect liberty to disregard that word in the construc tion of the statute. "Further, the validity of the act in question is not affected by the revision of the code. The civil code passed the legislature before the penal code did, and not afterwards. But, notwith standing all assertions to the contrary, by reference to the new revised code it will be seen that it specifically states all laws embodied in the revised stat utes which were in existence at the time of its adoption should be consid ered to be a continuation and not as new enactments. "This law being valid, it is the duty of the sheriff of Dallas county to see that it is enforced. He has the author ity and we will look to him to see that the law is enforced." REBUKED BY WILLIS. The Minister to Hawaii Checks Joseph Cook's Fourth of July Oration. Victobia, B. C, July 15. According to advices from Honolulu, United States Minister Willis presided at the Fourth of July celebration on the con dition that the celebration should be exclusively American and that no Ha waiian politics would be introduced. This was agreed to. Rev. Joseph Cook of Boston, was one of the speakers and discussed the present political situation- in Hawaii. He specially com mended the absence of caste or race distinction in Hawaiian politics; Btrongly reprobated those elements in Southern politics and employed a tone of Northern superiority to the South. He insisted on the necessity of New England principles dominating in Ha waii, and urged all citizens to vote. He expressed regret that many had re frained from doing so by apprehending unfavorable consequences from the hostility of the Washington adminis tration. Mr. Willis had remained silent up to thie point, but the unfavorable allusion to the administration which he repre sented brought him to his feet and he administered a severe reprimand to Dr. Cook, declaring that his whole address was out of placd and that he could not be allowed to conclude. Mr. Willis was vigorously applauded. Dr. Cook protested against this treatment. He said with mueh emphasis that he was not accustomed to be put into a Btraight jacket nor to be gagged. He then proceeded for only a few minutes, dealing mainly in generalities. Gen eral opinion justifies Minister Willis. Had he made no protest he might have been liable to official censure. THREE WERE KILLED. Tangled Heaps of Ruins Mark the Path of 'w Jersey's Storm. Hackkitsack, N. J., July 15. Be tween 40,000 and 50,000 persons visited the scenes of the ruin and devastation at Cherry Hill yesterday. Viewed in the light of day, the de vastation appeared more complete. Everywhere in the path of the storm were ruins. The tangled heap of ruins by the railroad track tell where the depot weat to pieces. That pile of wreckage showed where a house had been thrown down and that one where a barn had been razed by the winds. The leafless trees that withstood the strain of the whirlwind gave the ap pearance of midwinter. On two sides, viewed from the center of the town, there were banks of green, but where the storm swept everything was black and bare. Three were killed in the storm. Did Kot Know It Was Loaded.

Take Two Colored Men Out of Jail svnd Bans; Them In Arkansas. Camdks, Ark., July 15. About 12 o'clock Saturday night, at Hampton, thirty miles east of here, two negroes were mobbed by seventy-five men. Two weeks ago a white man named Martin was killed by three negroes. Two of them were arrested and placed in jail. A mob gathered several nights ago, but were persuaded to desist. Saturday night there was another gathering, and seventy-five determined men marched to the jail and demanded of the sheriff the surrender of the mur derers. It was useless to resist such a force with but a handful of men to sum mon to his aid, so the keys were deliv ered to the mob. The culprits were carried to the neighboring forest and hanged to trees. The men were not masked and made no effort to conceal their identity. Two years ago a race riot occurred in Calhoun county. The negroes greatly outnumber the whites, and further trouble is expected.

D., July 15.- A tornado at O'Donnellson, six miles northeast of here, was reported at 4:45 o'clock yes terday afternoon. It was about three rods wide. At a school house near by people were at church and heard it coming. It first struck a large ma chinery shed, lifted that up, turned it completely around and dropped it five rods away in a grove. It was full of machinery, which was twisted out of shape. Turning, it took the windmill oft of a barn and twisted the barn, it then struck the house, five rods away. The house was a large, square, two story frame building, on a brick foundation. It lifted this house in the air, whirled it around and, striking on a corner, it went into a thousand pieces. There were five persons in the house. Mrs. xseison was sitting on the porch with a baby in her arms. When in the air she dropped the baby and it was carried thirty feet. Both were uninjured. A 12-year-old girl named Peters' was badly hurt. Her leg was broken and she was injured internally. She is not expected to live.

Porter of the Security Loan company No. 2, with offices in the Hoe building,' has gone to Chicago, and no one knows when he will return. A re ceiver for the concern has been ap pointed by Judge Woods and an in junction granted restraining the com pany from transacting business- For the past three weeks the home offices have been besieged with angry stock holders and creditors with no one but women typewriters and President Por ter's son to receive them. H. L. Gray, deputy state superin tendent of building and loan associa tions, has investigated, and as a result a receiver was appointed. It is charged by Mr. Gray that the funds have been( misappropriated and misapplied. "Porter has gone to Chicago," said Mr. Gray, "and I have not the slight est idea that hi will ever return. If he does, he stands a very good chance of having to answer for violating the laws governing such concerns. When the last report was made by this com pany to the bureau of labor statistics it showed over 563,000 assets. I have reason to believe that the assets did not reach tha t figure by many thous ands, and know that they amount to practically nothing now." The company has had agents all over the state, operating chiefly in towns and villages, although stock was extensively sold in St. Louis, Mo berly and Kansas City. Mr. Gray states that some 530,000 worth of stock has been distributed. THE ENDEAVORERS. Delegates Kesolve Not to Patronize tha Street Cars, and Walk to Services. Boston, July 15. The program of the Christian Endeavor yesterday in cluded work only for the visiting clergymen. The local ministers in general gave place to those who had come from other localities to attend the convention,, and it is doubtful if ever in the history of Boston its pulpits were supplied with such an array of eminent preachers. Several delegations located "down town emphasized their ideas on the matter of Sabbath observance by meeting and passing resolutions pledging themselves not to use the street cars or other conveyances Sun day. As a result the streets, just prior to the commencement of regular church services, were thronged with men and women wearing Christian Endeavor badges, proceeding on foot to the most convenient churches. They had already begun the day with the usual 6:30 a. m. prayer meetiners at their various headquarters, but in con trast to their custom on other days, there was no singing on the streets as the delegations passed to and fro. To-day is the last day of the conven tion. Sessions will be held in the tents and in Mechanics' hall in the morning ant vening. A noon-day rally will o9er in Jbaneuil hall, and the afternooi. will be devoted to pil grimages about the city. LIBERALS SNOWED UNDER. Results of British Elections, So Far, Show a Big Victory for the Unionists. London, July 15. Sir William Ver non Harcourt's defeat in Derby was the sensation in political cles. It was admitted on sides that the Liberals are cir all be- ginning very badly. Of 110 mem bers thus far elected 96 are Unionists 10 Liberals and 4 Parnellites. Eight Liberal seats have been captured by the Unionists and the Radicals have captured one Unionist seat, that at Perth. The moral effect of Sir William Har court's defeat will be great, as even the most sanguine Conservative did not expect a Liberal majority of 1,900 to be converted into a Unionist majority of 1,100. DIED FROM DANCING. Omaha Indian Feasts Combined With Hard Cider Prove Fatal. Decatttb, Neb., July 15. Two In dian women and one child died last night in Yeaton's pasture, where the Omaha Indian dance is taking place. The women got gloriously drunk on a home-made compound of hard cider and participated in an Indian dance until completely overcome. This makes the seventh Indian who has died since the celebration begun. George Parker, an Omaha Indian, was drunk yesterday, and Frank Ew ing, a Winnebago policeman, attempt ed to arrest him. Parker started to run and Ewing fired, killing him in stantly. Ewing was promptly arrested and taken to jail, where he now is. There is considerable excitement among the Indians, and further trouble may result. In Neat Gray Bloomers. Indianapolis, Ind., July 15.

There was a wide range to wheat to day btMnff 3 cents and it was not easily explainable, up to noon the market acted weak. In the last hour it was very strong. The fluctuations seemed to be chiefly the result of pit operations. Selling early, which over weighted the markot and then an at tempt later to cover. The stat istical news ws rather bullish, although of both sorts. The decrease in the visible was more than expected 2,100,01)0. There was a decrease oa pas sage 8 ',000. The world's weekly ship ments were 1,000,000 more than last week an estimate on the French crop made it 42,000,100 less than 1S94, on the other hand cables were weak. The northwestern weather was improved, India shipments were large 1.34S, 000. There was an increase in the English visible of 350,000. Seaboard clearances were small, less than 70,000. There was no cash demand. As for crop news it was conflicting as it had been for a week, claims of damage and countor claims. The president of the St. Paul road summary sees a detail ed report from ail their division superin tendents to mean that the crop generally will be cood, that too, allowing consider able damage in spots. Corn opened steady but did not hold. There was a very sudden break from 463 to 45 and only a partial recovery. There was not eo good a cash demand. There was a fair decrease in the visible 941,000 and the expected large decrease in the local stock $1,106,000. But the talk of a pos sible squeeze hns lessened in the Sep tember trade. Some of the big shorts have covered. The other side of trade today was small. The receipts today were 190 cars, estimated for Tuesday 250. Oats were dull rather earlier and fin ally closing a Saturday last figures. Rects were 182 the estimate for Tuesday 13J crop reports are improving. The weather is favorable. There was a de crease of 664,000 in the visible. Provisions were fairly active and rul ed eaBier. Longs were selling out pork and ribs and there was some selling by packers morn trading was done deliver ies and packers would undoubtedly sell these deliveries. Revenue Officers Are After the Wichita Bootleggers. Leavenworth, July 15. The outsid ers or spectators who attended the week ly medal shoot of the Leavenworth gun club observed a decided difference in the appearance of the targets or "birda," es pecially in their markings. The targets used in the principal shoot were made in this city and it was the first medai event that has been shot with these birds ex clusively. Leavenworth now has one of the five inanimate target factories in the United Stales. It was started up in full blast yesterday and within teu days will be turuing out 10,000 targets daily. The new target factory is the fruit of the enterprise and genius of H.irry E. and L. A. Sherman, James W. Sexton aver, and every councilman answered aye on thfl roll ca.l on its passatre.

It has gained popularity among Kansas trap shooters at a bound and within the next six months 13; expected to be in pretty general use all over the United States. Sherman moved to Leavenworth from Peoria, 111., a few months ago, having purchased the old glucose works proper ty. Harry Sherman is a chemist of much experience and the new target is really the result of his experiments. The "Star" contains one ingredient not found in other makes, and of course this ingredient is a secret. It alone makes the target an excellent breaker. One small pellet is sufficient to cause the "Star" to snap to pieces. The new target has a bright stripe around it, and this is a mark of dis tinction. There are three colors, light yellow, red and red and yellow combined. Dealers are given their choice in order ing. When they sail through the air they really appear larger thau the "blue rock," but this i imply an ODtical il lusion. The result of a shot now and then proves it. BOUGHT THE FARMER'S WIFE. A Lcavanwnrth Man Pay for 200 Pounds That Me Doesn't Get. Leavenworth, July 15. A Leaven worth man whose name is McKee, has had some experience with long and short weights which is very amusing. On four different occasions Mr. McKee pur chased hay from a farmer whose wife weighed about 250 pounds.- Each time a load of hay was brought to town the wife accompanied the husband, but she was not always visible. It is now asserted that when the load of hay was weighed the woman was down in it and when the hay mow was reached she would crawl out. He paid for the fat woman four times without receiving any right, title or c.aim to her. He has quit buying hay of that farmer. HIAWATHA JOINTS SHUT. The City Council Faiua an Ordinance Clos ing Them Up. Hiawatha, Kan., July 15. The city council has passed an ordinance of the strictest kind closing the joints here and from this time on it is expected that the only place where liquor can be sold in this county will be at the drug stores. Mayor Buckles opposed this ordinance as he said he did not believe it was the d 'ty of the city to enforce the state law.

The re building of the Santa Fe round house and shops is progressing fast. It amounts to more than rebuilding, for the new shops will be much larger than the old The city donated the land for the im provements. A 25 stall round house will be built The old one had 15 stalls. The new machine shop will be 6 'Xl00. It was first intended to make it 5ox70, The new ware room will be 50 feet square and fire proof. An air testing plant will" be put in and an engine-house for stationary engines will be built A boiler room for two boilers will be put up with coal bins attached. The old wooden round house will be used as a paint shop, virtually giving a round house of 27 stall capacity. From 10 to 2J miles of track will be laid to corres pond with the new improvements. AFTER THE UOOTLEGGERS. V. S. Revenue Collectors Begin a Starch Fur Them in Wichita. Wichita, July 15. Deputy Internal Revenue Collector W. E. Huttman and his force, acting under instructions from his chief have begun a search for boot leggers. The police department is also on the alert for them and a number of them have been captured. Matt Wall, one of the most prominent and prosper ous saloonkeepers of the city was ar rested for selling intoxicating liquors, and other arrests will follow. The city revenues heretofore derived from jointists, are now insufficient to pay the street grading gang and mowers, and 35 laborers were dropped from the pay rolls. There will be no taxes paid to the cuy treasury from the county treasury until August 15, and the amount already due the city employes will exhaust that dividend. 'Ihe Beacon, which has here tofore fought the Governor's prohibition ideas, calls upon the police commission either to absolutely enforce the law or resign. FUSION IN LYON.

It seems that there are two Democrats left who are willing to acknowledge it; David B. Hill and George Tauber. If all that Senator Thacher charges is true, Cy Leland is a regular Grover Cleveland for using official patronage to coerce men into voting his way. Thi long expected ally of the Cuban 'Inesurgents, the yellow fever, has arrived at last A SDeedr termination of the war may now confidently be expected. President Turner of the Christian Endeavorers does not agree with John J. Ingalls in that gentleman's assertion that "the purification of politics is an irides cent dream." He believes whatever ought to be done can be done. The Denver people have found a way cut of the waterworks muddle. It is for the city to buy the plant This course would doubtless be the means of saving a large amount of money to the people, besides securing an improved service. If there is a big steal in connection with the erection of the electrical build' ing at the state university as ia charged by Senator Thacher, Mr. Challinor should be set at work on the case to rind out who got the money. "Let no guilty man es cape." Congressman W. D. Btnum In a speech delivered at Sullivan. Ind. last week told his audience that the law is not responsible for the low price of ail ver for the reason that the price of silver ia governed by the matter of supply and demand. lie omitted to mention, how ever, that the demand had been cur tailed by the law when it stopped its use for coinage purposes. The fallacy of comparing this country to Mexico in connection with the silver matter is apparent when it is considered that Mexico ia a buying nation while ours is a selling nation. Who would re fuse to take our silver dollars at 100 cents when they could exchange them for a dollar's worth of our products. "When we cease to discriminate against our own currency other people will do the same. What people want in a currency is not so much a promise to pay as a promise to receive as long as we have things to Bell. Never before was such a fight made against a "dying" case as is being made by the gold-bugs against the cause of free silver. They are not only pouring out money like water but they are using every effort to prevent any expression by the people. Why do they do this, if as they claim, "the silver craze is dying out." Why don't they just let it die? Or better yet, they might marshal their cohorts at the free silver conventions held under partisan auspices and vote it out. The fact is their experience in Kentucky was enough for them. They don't, want to try that again. They will use their best efforts to keep the people from getting together. Thb Osage City Press speaking of the chief justiceship muddle says: "Next winter Col. Anthony will appear before the Editorial association and assure the editors in a very impressive manner, that the Times always tells the truth,' and Frank MaoLennan will expatiate upon the beauties of wide-awake jour nalism." The Journal suggests that the Press hold its breath a little while. We are not through collecting fact3 about this matter. The first invoice ap peared in Saturday's Journal. Judge Thacher's story comes pretty close to in dicating that he was the first choice of Governor Morrill. When it comes to getting at the truth of things the Stats Journal is always pretty close to the band wagon. Some of the truth isn't always agreeable, but it is the truth, and that is what the Journal readers pay it for getting. Wichita seems to be burdened with an incompetent police force. They say they can't find the joints. They should be put out and men put in their places who can find them. Topeka rould fur nish them policemen who could find their joints. If any other law were being vi olated to the same extent that the pro hibitory law seems to be violated in Wichita, it is extremely likely that her policemen could find the criminals and their places of business. What can be expected of a chief of police who, by his own confession, declines to prosecute of fenders against the dignity of the city because their relatives are prominent business men. What rights have one class of citizens that another class does not possess? The chief in his interview quoted in this paper last week, complains that he receives no word of encourage ment lias tt come to this that a man s oath and his salary are not sufficient in centives to do his duty? Wichita's chief evidently ia too sentimental for a good officer. Be should resign and make room for some man who will do his duty be cause it is right and for the salary at tached to tha office, No greater reason for the suppression of the liquor traffic in Wichita has been offered than the chiefs story about tha great number of drunken boys to be found in the by -ways. It seems at this distance as though he might find the jointiats as easily as he finds these boys. KANSAS PARAGRAPHS. A Mr. Loose was in Quenemo all day last week and escaped being put in the pound. The Seneca News thinks it takes a bright girl to do without a light in the parlor. Them Is talk of taking all the Sunday schools of Ottawa over to Leavenworth on an excursion and incidentally as an object lesson. Wichita Eagle: After trying both, the city of Salina, as between fire and water, would rather have both than discrimina tive freight rates. A Eureka hackman runs both a dray and a cab. This is convenient bo that if his patron should have too big a "load" he can use the dray." If all the things a gypsy fortune teller told in Eureka come true, there won't be enough unmarried people in town to keep the ice cream parlors alive. Since the women of Eureka have got to using hollow glass rolling, pins, it isn t considered half so dangerous for tha men to stay out late at nights. Some Wichita young people who were sitting up with a dead child got to hav ing so much fun scuffling that the coffia was knocked down and split open. Seneca News: The editor of this pa per is opposed to Sunday excursions, whether the ostensible object is to hear some noted preaoher, or to get drunk. A Kansas Democratic newspaper sees this faint ray of hope for its party, that it will simply have to be put in power to investigate the acts of the Republicans. There is a great rush to the mourners' bench at a revival in Atchison so that they all can be baptized together at the baptizing which is to be the grand finale. Susan B. Anthony can't like Ft. Scott very much. She was in the city several days and the newspaper reporters didn't give her a chance to say a thing the whole time. The Emporia Republican warns Leav enworth cot to boast too much about having open saloons still. It says "Leav enworth had better drink her beer and say nothing." A great crowd assembled to see the schools of fishes, which were supposed to dwell in the city lake at Garnett, hauled out with a seine and the result was two pitiful little fishes. Lawrence Journal. A Lawrence min ister asked one of hia congregation the day before the races if he was going, and finding that he was remarked that he would be down to go with him. Emporia Republican: A blind man in Emporia proposed to deliver a lecture on "hard times." He began by saying that the farmer was responsible for "hard times." "The farmer," he continued, "raised corn, corn made whisky whisky made Democrats and Democrats mado hard times." DON'T COUNT TOO SOON. Bradford Miller Says We Mast Htvi Lota More Rain for Corn. "People are counting altogether too much on a big corn crop," said ex-Mayor Bradford Miller. "Corn will require con siderable rain before a crop is assured, but people talk as if a crop were already assured. "One of the best prospects for corn we ever had was in July, 1874. Everything indicated an immense crop and we didn't raise an ear. It would be well to wait until the last of August before pre HOW THE FLOOD CAME. Graphic Description of Its Sweep Through Kusssll County. Western Kansas counties through which the Smoky Hill river runs never saw such a flood in all their history as swept down the valley and inundated Halina, In Russell county the flood came soon after aaylight ine Kussell Journal describes it graphically. It says: "Persons residing within a mile or even two miles heard the rumbiing and roar ing ol the mighty waters and some of them thought it was that of some har vesting machinery. Others who lived close by saw the water coming and made haste to remove their stock from the low pasture grounds along the river, and in'some instances at least, were none too soon. The water came in rolling waves four feet high and rose ten feet in an hour's time, and in five or six hours after it began to rise, it was from eigh teen to twenty feet above low water mark. "The iron bridge across the river south of Russell was about S00 feet long and 15 feet above the bed of the river. Eye witnesses say that when the water reached the floor of the bridge, a large wave of water just raised it up in the center and it parted as though made of straws. It is a total wreck and is lying a half mile down the stream. "Those living along the river report having seen a great deal of stock of var ious kinds passing down the stream as well as parts of bridges, buildings, house hold furniture of every description and even several freight cars. "The body of a boy is also reported as having been seen going down the stream. "Ihe most surprising part of the flood was the fact that no rain of any conse quence had fallen in this or Ellis county lying west ot us for several weeks Ihe high water being caused by terrible rains from 100 to 2u0 miles west of here." FOOLED A. R. GREENE. A Forger Came Near Getting Some Money Oat of Him. A R. Greene of Lecompton was in town baturday. lie hart en experience a few days ago with a man who palmed himBelf off as an army comrade long enough to secure Mr. Greene's signature' which he counterfeited on a (35 note, and attempted to raise money on the pa per. Mr. Greene found that the man is ia Topeka, hanging round the state house, and it is supposed he is trying to work the same game on some'of tho state officers. After he had made Mr. Greene's ac quaintance, he asked him to write a note to the cashier of the Watkina bank of Lawrence, telling him that "no mack intosh had been left at his house." Though Mr. Greene is by no means dull he fell into the trap, and signed the note, and the man then used it in forg ing his note at the bank, which was cot cashed, by an accident. MAUEKS INDIGNANT The Family of the Insane Asylum Patient WHO WAS RILLED KECEHTLY Protest Axainat ilia Treatment at the Asylum Saner Had Three Hew Salts of Clothes Which Have Dis appeared. Hats City, Kas., July 14. 1895. To the Editor of the Static Jocenal: Allow me to thank yon for your item in the Journal that told of my poor brother's death at the asylum, it was the first intimation that we had, that anything was wrong in his death. The affair has been placed ra charge of our county official and a searching in vestigation will be made at this end of the line. Perhaps you could through your reporters help to bring to light what took place at the asylum it is in the interest of humanity that something be done to stop this inhuman treatment of patients that are intrusted to the care of our state institutions so please as list us in any way you can. i enclose a little article which I wiBh you would publish, it is true every word of it and may be the cause of bringing tne puDiic a attention to the deplorable state of affairs that ex ist at the asylum in secret, very truly your friend, Michael Maueh. The following is the article referred to by Mr. Alauer: ilAYs City, Sunday, July leaa. The remains of Gust Mauer, the patient who was killed at the Topeka insane asylum, were disentombed this morning by Coroner Smith in presence of Bheriif T. K. Hamilton, County Attorney Al. ti. Mulroy and a coroner's jury composed of the following citizens: J. H. Downing, Hugh Irwin. Jr., G M. Wauu, M. M. Ban nister, M. lloffrtinier and J. L. iSaumer. Dr. J. IL Miidlekauf and Dr. George B. Snyder being present as medical ex perts. On bringing the remains to view it was found to be in a good state of preservation and after due examination by the doctors it was found that the neck had been completely broken and after completing this examination the doctors proceeded to take out the brain for fur ther examination, then the inquest ad journed until Tuesdav at 10 o'clock in order to give the surgeons time to report to the jury. Much feeling is manifest against Dr, Eastman who wrote the widow that her husband died in an apoplectic fit in which he worked for several hours. It is a fact that three patients from this county have died in the asylum and when their remains have been received here it has been found that their bodies, face, head and hands have been covered with cuts and bruises and in such places on the person that they must have been in flicted by the attendants or other patients and in a manner that ia a disgrace to any institution that pretends to be under a Christian management When the remains are examined here it has been found that they are naked with the exception of "dicKy," shirt bo som and a "dicky" coat fronts. Mauer had been at the asylum only I month, and when he was sent there, un der the rules of the institution, three complete suits of new clothing, from stockings to coats, were sent with him, yet when the remains were received here only the dicky shirt and a dicky coat was on them. What had become of his own clothing, which was new? None of the remains was Bhaven, hair from a quarter to half inch being on their face. Is this the way a Christian state treats their unfortunates? That the man agement of the asylum i3 responsible for this state of attaira goes without saying, and something should be done to correct it even if the entire force has to be let out GENE YATES RELEASED. II is a Free Man Through HU Mother's Effort From the Leavenworth Times, Saturday. E. B Yates, the young Topeka sport, was released from the county jail yester. dav afternoon and he is once more a free man. His release is due to the hard work of his devoted mother, who has been here several days laboring to bring it about She held several conferences with Ar thur Simmons yesterday and it resulted in his agreeing not to prosecute the young man and withdrawing the case against him from Justice Carney a court It is said the $81 Yates secured from Mr. Simmons by making false representations has been returned and that he agreed not to prosecute him for his mother's sake. Young Yates 13 out of a serious box and has been taught a lesson that will no doubt have a tendency to make him go slow in the future.

The committee oa streets and walks of the city council held a meeting Saturday evening to consider the bicycle ordinance and it resulted in an agreement to report the ordinance favorably. Councilman Stephenson suggested an amendment which pleased the wheel men. It provides that no one shall throw broken glass or crockery into the street and any one doing so is liable to arrest There is one provision of the ordinance which will probably result in soma oppo sition when it is called up tonight and it should be defeated. That is the last pro vision allowing all vehicles to travel at the rate of ten miles an hour. This may not be a mistake so for as bicycles are concerned, but the rate is entirely too high for other vehicles and the result would be that all the streets is the city might te used as a race course without liability to arrest If an ordinance per mits drivers to go ten miles an hour it means that no one could be convicted of fast driving. Councilman Stephenson's hitching post ordinance will be reported favora bly.

WHEAT PROSPECTS POOR. Drouth in Minnesota Makes the Outlook Woree by One Third. Chicago, July 15. A dispatch from St Paul, Minn., says: Dispatches from Big Btone, Grant, Swift and Lac qui parle counties, Minnesota, and several counties west of these in South Dakota, say that the prospects for wheat are not so good by 33 per cent as ten days ago on account of the drouth. This district has had no rain for eight een days. Correspondents report that the yield will not exceed six bushels in Lac-qui-parle and Swift counties and will be but little in Big atone county. It is very dry in Chisago, Pine and Anoka counties the Minnesota potato belt and the yield of potatoes will be very small un less rain comes in the next eight days. Charles A. Pillsbury, the big miller, Bays: "I thought on July 1, that Minne sota, North and South Dakota, would yield 140.OUO.000 bushels of wheat as against about 115,000,000 bushels last vear. Now I think the extreme possi bility is 125,000,000 bushels, with a strong possibility that we will raise no more than we did a year ago." Baltimore and return by the Santa Fe route $9.25.

The public must be aware of the fact that Prof. Samuels meets with great suc cess not only in Topeka, but everywhere else. Wherever he goes the result is the eame.

If that is all a man cares for. whv should he eo to one of these so-called oculists and pay them a large price tor a pair o. Kiaa t v TV. question snouia oe, uo me glasses ueuem, your eyes ana mase mem BirongBri tnem sironeerr Prof. Samuels puts glasses on people and after a while they do without them. They restore their sight, make their health good, and henceafter doctors are unnecessary. There is no trick in mak ing neople see with glasses. Anyone can do that Read a letter from Mrs. W. G. Fairleigh of St. Joseph, a sister of Mrs. Milton Tootle: St. Joseph, Ma Prof. Samuels: Dear Sir: I feel that I would be un grateful, indeed, if I did not in some manner express my gratitude to you for the wonderful benefit derived from the use of your glasses. My son, now four teen years of age, has teen greatly troubled with his eyes, and everything possible was dote for him, but without success. His sight waa impaired to such an extent that he was prevented from etudying, and as a consequence remained out of school quite a while. Something over five years ago, when you returned to St, Joseph, 1 was advised to visit you, and I am truly thankful that I did so. I assure you your name will always be re membered by us as to you and you only our boy owes his good health and happi ness. At that time you fitted his eyes with a pair of your glasses and gave di rections which were followed with bene ficial results. Immediately after he be gan wearing the glasses, he started to school, and I am pleased and gratified to ay he has not missed a day since. After your glasses were worn six months his ieht returned and he has not had to use them since. I write this that it may be the means of inducing other sufferers with defective eyesisrht to be benefitted by the use of your glasses. Very respectfully, Mrs. W. G. Fairleioh.

Cole of Great Bend, who is one of Mrs. Stryker's warm per sonal friends, knows all about it though he admits that for some reason he has not yet been to see the play.

"She is a very bright and intelligent woman," Judge Cole said to a Journal reporter. Mrs. Stryker will be glad to Know ne said it.

Summoned to Explain His Connection With His Defunct Publishing- Honne. New York, July 15. Mark Twain. the humorist, has been undergoing a legal examination at the office of his law yers on account of the failure last year of the publishing house of Charles L. Webster Co., in which Mr. Clemens was a partner. An attempt is being made by Thomas Russell Sons, printers, to collect $5,0j0 from the bankrupt concern. Mr. Clem ens returned from Europe, where he had gone for the benefit of his health about six weeks ago. He has been staving at Elmira under a physician's care ever since. At the time of the failure the liabilities of the firm amounted to about $80,000. The assets consisted of contracts with authors for the publication of books, and copyrights of previously published books as well as the unsold volumes of various kinds that had accumulated during the nine years' existence of the firm, were, it was estimated, worth something like $25,000. The largest debt of the publishing firm was to Mrs. Clemens, who had at different times advanced $70,000 in mon ey to help along the business. After the failure a medical certificate was pro duced declaring that the humorist had a carbuncle on his leg. BENEDICT WELL AGAIN. The Wilson Connty Representative Pally .Recovered Prom His Illness.

Peerless Steam Steam Laundxr Laundry Petrleai JUMPS IN THE RIVER. Mrs. Edward McGinnis Commits Suicide Sunday Afternoon. SUFFERING FROM A SUNSTROKE Which She Received Six Years As The Body Recovered Soon After the Act ofSaicide. Mrs. Edward McGinnis, aged 52, of 904 Jefferson street, committed suicide Sunday afternoon by jumping into the Kansas river. Daring the past few weeks Mrs. McGinnis had been suffering from the effects of a sunstroke received six years ago, and she was no doubt tem porarily insane. Not much ia known regarding the de tails of her death. First reports had it that she had leaped from the Santa Fe bridge. This is disproven by several people who are positive that she jumped into the river at the foot of Jefferson street. A little boy'saw her go into the river, and says she threw her parasol into the water first. He thought she was trying to get it and fell in. The affair occurred at about 2 o'clock. Three-quarters of an hour later her body was found floating in the. river 5U0. yards below the Santa Fe bridge by Mar tin Shultz who was in a boat. The river is higher than it has been for several months and Sunday it was steadily ris ing. This fact, it is said, had a tendency to keep the body near the shore and afloat. lu the summer of 1889 Mrs. McGinnis was the victim of a sun-stroke. This summer she has suffered greatly from the effects of it and has complained of pains in her head. Her physicians told her that she was threatened with soften ing of the brain, and she suffered from insomnia.- The members of her family and the. neighbors say she had been "queer" for several weeks. "She was undoubtedly insane," Edward McGinnis, her husband, said to a Jour nal reporter today. "I had noticed it for some time but none of us ever sus pected she would do anything.like this. After dinner yesterday I was lying down up-stairs and I supposed my wife-was around the house somewhere. 1 came down about three o'clock and asked where she was, and I was told she had put on her sun-bonnet and gone to. visit our daugh ter. I went over there and found she had not been there. Then I became alarmed, and as soon as 1 heard that a ladv had been drowned in the river 1 be gan to suspect the truth. She had been suffering trom brain trouble for several weeks and we knew she was not quite right. The coroner's inquest was held this afternoon at 2 o'clock and returned a verdict of suicide' while temporarily in sane. The funeral will be held at the Church of the Assumption, of which she was a iife-lona: member, tomorrow morn ing at 9 o'clock. Mrs. McGinnis was the mother of two boys and five daughters. Ed McGinnis, Jr., works in Joseph Bromich's boiler works and James, aged 22, works at Wolff's packing house. Her daughters are Mrs. John Parkinson, Mrs. John Kelly, Mrs. James Jlallarry- and Misses Annie and Gertrude' McGinnis. Her husband, Edward McGinnis, is an old resident of Topeka, having been em ployed in the Santa Fe round house for twenty-five years. TOOK MORPHINE. Mrs. Leonard, Formerly Rachel Beaver, Swallows Twelve I'll Is, but Does Not Die. For the second time during her honey moon Mrs. Andy "Leonard, who lives at 116 Kansas avenue north, yesterday afternoon made an attempt to beat both the Lord and the divorce court by taking morphine. Mrs. Leonard, waa formerly Miss Rachel Beaver, with whom the police were acquainted, and joined her lot with that of Leonard less than two months ago. Less than three weeks afterward she tried to get rid of him by the use of morphine but it was a failure. Yesterday afternoon Leonard was doz ing on the cellar door and Rachel threw a dipper full of water on him. He threw two dipper fulls on her and she came back again. Andy then raised her several dipper fulls and made it a bucket and, before the row ended, another bucket. Mrs. Leonard had no longer use for life after that and took twelve morphine pills of ene-eighth grain each. There was excitement after that, and Dr. V. a. McClintock was summoned. So were several policemen. All this made Rachel mad and she got up off a cellar door where she had lain down to die and picking up a brick, requested that they go away and let her do her own- dying. Some of the more feeling ones went. bhe would not allow "the doctor to do anything for her and finally slept the drug off. TIC. CAN'T GET AWAY.

Great songs, like great men, are -usnal. ly of very commonplace origin. "Dixie, the war song that thrilled the hearts of fully 1,000,000 Confederate sol diers and sailora was a "walk around,', writ ten and composed on a rainy Sun day by America! first 'V'nig gel minstrel, Dan iel D. Emmett. Such a song ishonld have been the work of a southern man and shonld hava can emmett. been composed in the very heart of the sunny south in the ordinary fitness of things, but Dan Em mett was an Ohioan, and "Dixie" waa written and first sung in New York city, which furnished thousands of the very first trcops that went to the front to crush secession. Daniel Decatur Emmett, old, poor and broken in health, is still living in a little house near Mount Vernon, O. Uf made a great deal of money in his days of popularity, but he spent it as fast as he got it. Now he lives alone in his very modest board shanty and de votes most of his time to his chickens, his pet cat Chillipaluchia and his Bible. He was born in Mount Vernon Oct. 29, 1815, and received a very limited edu cation. From early boyhood, however, he played the fife and violin by ear cud displayed marked talent for music. He also possessed a very pleasing voice the voice that afterward won him fame and fortune. He left school at an early age, be came a journeyman printer, and for a time traveled with a circus as a team ster. In 1834, when a mere boy of 19, he enlisted in the regular, army, and for 14 months was fifer in a company of in fantry. He next ran away with a circus that showed in Cincinnati and drifted to New York, where he worked on news papers during the winter and in summer traveled with circuses. One evening Emmett, Francis Marion Brower, Wil liam Whitlock and William Ward Pel ham gave an entertainment at their boarding house in New York and sang negro songs. To heighten the realism Emmett sug gested that they black np with stove soot. They did so, and their modest minstrel show was so successful that they gave a public entertainment as the Virginia Minstrels in Chatham theater. This, the first minstrel show, was a ter rific hit, and Emmett's notable career as fi black face artist began. While with Bryant's minstrels he composed numer ous "walk arounds, among them "Old Dan Tucker. One dav in the spring of 1859 Jerry Bryaut wanted a new "walk around," and Emmett hurriedly composed "Dixie." It was first sung in Mechanics' hall, New York; it caught the fancy of the people, and when Sum ter was fired on the soldiers of the Con federacy adopted it as their war song. A PRETTY DOCTOR OF SCIENCE. Carcl Baldwin Is a Marvel of Erudition and Knows Bow to Cook. Miss Carol Willard Baldwin, the first woman to receive the degree of doctor of science at Cornell, is a prodigy in mathematical erudition, but she can cook and keep house as well as the next girl. She was born in San Francisco June 30, 1869, and is a pretty young woman with gray eyes, dark hair and a clear, creamy complexion that has baf fled the wrinkling tendencies of years of laborious mathematical study. Her mother was a teacher and was ambi tious that her daughter should receive an excellent education. Accordingly, after Miss Carol had been graduated from the Santa Cruz high school as vale- MISS CAKOL BALDWIN. dictorian with highest honors, she spent a year studying French and Latin, mu sic, painting, elocution and cooking and then entered. California State universi ty, where she studied early and late for four years before she was graduated, third in point of merit in a class of over 60, and was the first woman to receive the degree of doctor of science from the College of Mechanics. After graduating she taught school for five months and then returned to the State university for post graduate work in science. The professors considered her a marvel and encouraged her in her ambition to pursue scientific work ia some eastern college. She entered Cor nell in 1893, and on May 29 of the present year took her final examination. For four hours three learned professors gave her scientific knowledge a severe test and then told her she could have her degree. "I left the room," she says, "with a. queer, weak feeling about the knees andf ankles, but with the sublime consciousi ness that I had neither cried nor faint ed," surely a great triumph for one off ber sex under the trying circumstances, Despite her unusual learning she is a gay companion and is as interested vi the frivolities of life as she is in physic and mechanics. if 11 V XTOiifflEf VHP

THAT BICYCLE SUIT. She had not attended his jshurch very long, but Wis already one of the active workers, though not admitted to member ship. Miss Vance, one of the most devot ed members of his little flock, had brought her and introduced her as h? friend, and the young people had speedily taken her up. The young minister had welcomed her gladly. He was anxious to make converts and secure new members and had been hoping to induce Miss Alice Maywood to unite with the church and thus identify her charming personality still more closely with the work, when something happened which cooled his ardor in this direction and indeed left him puzzled as to what course to adopt with regard to this pecul iar young lady. One bright spring morning as the min ister walked slowly along one of the streets on the outskirts of the town, drinking in the fragrance of opening leaf and flower, he beheld an apparition. Coming rapidly toward him, perched airily on the seat of a new bicycle, was Alice Maywood, her gold en head shining in the sunlight under hei jaunty cap, her cheeks glowing. The min ister gasped as the girl saw him and bowed, returned the salutation, too dazed to raise his hat. For the navy blue cos tume she wore, with its prettily fashioned Eton jacket, was certainly made with a skirt no, it wasn't a skirt at all; it was bloomers 1 It was an outrage, the minister thought, getting more indignant as he went on, and she had seemed so different, so quiet, modest and refined. Some one ought to talk to her. What could her mother be thinking of? He couldn't say a word. The young man blushed at the idea. "Now, Gertrude would never of course not He grew uncomfortably warm about the ears at the mere suggestion that Gertrude would do such a thing. Then the object of his disapproval glided out of his mind as quickly as she had come in. The 6tern lines of his face softened and he took up his day dream where he had left it. JNexc fall when the new church was done he would go east and bring Gertrude, and what good couldn't he accomplish With such a woman for an inspiration and helpmate? And his thoughts dwelt loving ly upon the perfections of the sweet, gen tle young woman who was going to give up her friends, her high social station and many .advantages' in the east and come with him to the wild west, as he called it, to aid him with her culture, with her wealth, with herself. So during the long summer he worked hard and earnestly, upborne by the thought of success and Gertrude, and in the great struggle all minor difficulties slipped out of 6ight. Alice Maywood still gave her services freely and fully to the little church, still taught the little ones and spoke kindly and smilingly to young and old, rich and poor alike, and still took her daily bicycle ride, clad in her natty bloom er suit, seeming to gain added strength and health thereby. But the minister fairly disliked her when he saw her skim ming gayly by in her novel attire, espe cially as some of ber acquaintances had followed her example. If any disapproving matron or maid spoke to her about her costume, she inva riably replied that she and her family con sidered it the only safe and sensible cos tume to wear on a wheel and that she in tended to wear it. Only to Molly Vance did she unbosom herself further. Poor Molly lay flat on her back, "laid up for repairs," she expressed it, and Alice had stepped in to bring her some sunshine and news from the world outside. She had come in from a long ride on her wheel and Molly said she looked like a relio of the Midway. "So you aud the minister don't like my suit, Molly, dear," she 6aid. "I am sur prised at him, for I thought he was an up to date young man." "Oh, no," Moily answered. "He is old fashioned in his notions. You mustn't mind him." "I don't," said Alice cheerfully. Then she said earnestly: "Molly, the customs of the world have always been hard on women. The natives of Ceylon hang heavy rings in the noses the Turks shut them up in cages; the Chi nese dwarf their feot,. and the modern Americans and .Europeans compress their waists and hang heavy skirts on their hips. But let any of them stop out, be it ever 60 little, from the beaten track of custom and point to a better path, where oomfort and freedom from disease may be had, and I promise you they will suffer." After this loiig and somewhat serious speech for the young lady she tossed up her cap, caught it on her head And said farewell, and this was the only sign she gave that the criticism passed by a few of her acquaintances hurt her. The days sped rapidly by, and the new church was completed. The minister went back to the east for his bride, returning in a few weeks for the dedication, feeling himself the happiest of men. His wife seemed pleased with all she saw and en tered with enthusiasm into all his plans, and he perceived with pleasure that his people received her warmly and took her at once into their hearts. One day shortly after their arrival as they were preparing for church Gertrude said, "John, what a charming girl Miss Maywood is." "Yes," said John absently. Then a cloud crossed his brow. He would tell Gertrude. Perhaps she could think of something to do. So he said: "Gertrude, that girl rides a bicycle and wears bloomers when she rides." "Does she?" said his wife. "Well, I think it must be a much more comfortable suit to ride in than a skirt." John stared. "Do you know," continued she uncon sciously, "I've always been dying to ride a wheel. You ride, don't you, dear?" ies, said John slowly. "And next year I'll get one, too, and we'll scour the country together. It will be good exercise for both of us." "But," hefaltered, "you won't wear" "Bloomers?" asked Gertrude. "Oh, yes; so much easier to ride in, and safer too." The minister rubbed his eyes. "John," she said, with a sigh as she ar ranged the heavy haircloth lined skirt and fastened her tight waist, "I'll be glad when women dress more sensibly." The minister did not say much en the way to church, but he thought a great deal, and as Alice Maywood passed him at the door the thought popped into his head that perhaps he had been a little too hard on her. Gertrude thought "she was all right, and Gertrude had sound sense, he was sure. Cincinnati Post. Forgot Something. "You have forgotten something, said a charming young woman to a man who presented her with an American Beauty rose, whose stem resembled a young tree. "Pardon me, what is it?" he queried.

The line of people waiting to cash money orders at the post office was long and growing longer, and the late comers were suffering from the heat and the long period of standing, says the Chicago Tribune. Far back at tho last end of the line a man glanced casually over the shoulder of the wom an in front of him and saw that tho order she carried open in her hand was not drawn upon the post office at all, but upon a prominent express com pany. "Excuse me, madam," he said, good naturedly, thinking to spare her fur ther waiting; "excuse me, but you havo come to the wrong place; you must cash that order at the office of the Express company." "Mind your own business," she snapped back, turning her head to glare fiercely at him. "What right have you to read my papers? I guess I know a post-office order when I see one, and, anyway, my son told me he should send the money to the post office. I'll thank you to look after your own affairs and let mine alone." The good-natured man was mortified at the reception of his well-meant sug gestion, and he made no further effprt to explain her mistake to her, but he could not help smiling a little when, after another twenty minutes' watt, sha reached the window and the clerk, giv ing a hasty glance at the paper, re marked briefly: "Wrong place. madam. Go to the express company." The woman tried to argue the ques tion,' but was told to pass on and she stepped from the line, intently reading the much-discussed order. When the good-natured man had finished his own business and was walking quickly down the corridor he was stopped by a touch on his arm, and there she stood. looking deprecatingly up at him and holding out her paper. "Where did you say I should go to get this cashed?" she asked, a trifle haughtily, and his own neck stiffened immediately at the remembrance of her recent rude behavior. "Pardon me, madam," he said, quiet ly, "but I am minding my own business now," and, lifting his hat, he departed, leaving a very angry woman gazing after him. MAKING CONTINUOUS RAILS. rtllizlngr a Portable Foundry Cupola Drawn by Horses. Success seems to attend the produc tion of continuous rails for railway tracks, with the simple use of a porta ble foundry cupola, mounted on wheels, bo as to enable it to be drawn easily by a pair of horses, says the New York Sun. In St. Louis the method is pur sued by uniting the rail ends by merely running a casting of iron around the joint by means of a special kind of molds, and the molds are heaped up near the line of the track, and a fire built around them, so that by the time they are to be put around the joints they are a dull red; there is also a lining in each pair of molds which requires renewal after each twenty joints, but its composition has not yet been made public, nor the exact mix ture of metals used for the cupola. The iron is poured into the molds from a ladle, as in ordinary practice, and the union between the iron and steel of the rails is represented as similar to that which takes place in a good weld. After the iron has been poured the molds are allowed to remain about ten minutes before taken off and used at a second joint; every other section of a track is cast in the morning, and in the afternoon the remaining joints are made, this being done to prevent as far as possible the severe strain of con traction and expansion, for when the Joint is hot it heats the rails for some distance and consequently there is con siderable expansion.

JIM GARFIELD THE SECOND. Nominated For Senator J nst as His Father Was Thirty-six Tears Ago. Will history repeat itself? is a ques tion James R. Garfield is doubtless ask ing himself nowadays. Like his father, the martyr president, he is a lawyer and a graduate of Williams college and entering politics at the age of 28, like his father, 36 years ago. He has been married little more than a year, and, strange to relate, like his father, too, he has been nominated for state senator of Ohio in the very Portage-Suinmitt district that elected James A. Garfield state senator in 1859. Another odd thing in connection with young Gar field's nomination is the fact that July 8, the day he received the nomination, was the fourteenth anniversary of .the day when the bullet of Assassin Charles Jules Guiteau laid his distinguished father low. In all probability James R. Garfield would like to be state senator, dashing and successful brigadier general, elo- JAMES K. GARFIELD. quent and powerful congressman, United States senator and president of the world's greatest republic, but at this point he will quite naturally desire his tory to cease repeating itself. Young Garfield enters politics in much the same manner that his father did, but there is a very marked difference in their financial conditions at the age of 28 years. James A. Garfield had fought a hard fight with poverty from earliest boyhood and was still poor. James R. Garfield is rich, and his wife is heir to a cool million. In many ways young Jim Garfield, as his friends call him, is said to be a chip of the old block, but he is particularly desirous to win his battles strictly on his own merits and is very reluctant to trade on the great fame of his sire. It is his ambition to gain legislative expe rience in the Ohio senate and then take his father's old place in congress from the old Nineteenth district that pro duced such men as Giddings, Wad! and James A. Garfield. He is a graduate of the Columbia Law school and has been admitted to practice before the supreme court of Ohio. When he was nominated recently, the principal objection made to him was his very youthful appearance the very same objection that his father met and overcame in a similar senato rial contest 36 years ago. THE CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR MOTHER. Sirs. Clark and the Great Society She and Her Hatband Originated. Mrs. Harriet Abbott Clark, "mother" of the Young People's Society of Chris tian Endeavor, is a quiet, modest little woman, scarcely past the first flush of young matronhood. She is the wife of the Rev. Dr. Francis E. Clark, the "father" of the famous society of young Christian workers. Fourteen years ago Dr. Clark was pastor of Williston church, Portland, Me. and he and his talented wife conceived the idea of forming a society of young people that should supplement the good work the church was doing. The young people entered heartily into the spirit of the affair, the society was soon, imitated by other churches, and at the present day Christian Endeavor societies are potent factors in the religious work of thou sands ef churches all over the world. Little did Dr. and Mrs. Clark imagine when they formed their little society in Portland that in 14 years societies woukLi MRS. HARRIETT ABBOTT CLARK. I be in existence in all but six countries of the world namely, Russia, Den mark, Greenland, Sweden, Italy and Norway. Mrs. Clark is a pretty woman, with dark, wavy hair and beautiful, sympa thetic gray eyes. Her face is girlish in outline, but is firm and full of charac ter. She is a typical minister's wife and is also the daughter and granddaughter of a clergyman. Her father was the Rev. Sereno Abbott, who was laboring at Hampton Falls, N. H. when his tal ented daughter was born. Her grandfa ther was Father French, who was well known in Vermont years ago. Two years ago Dr. and Mrs. Clark made a tour of the world and spoke be fore Christian Endeavor societies ia Turkey, the Holy Land, Australia, Chi 0a, Japan and numerous other countries. ftp w TO ENCOURAGE PENITENTS. Law Providing: for a M'nlmnm Sentence for Good CostIs s. One of the recently enacted statutes jf the State of Massachusetts is known is the undeterminate sentence law, and was passed for the benefit of penitent :riminals, in the belief that such con sideration of that class of malefact srs would be conducive to the welfare 5f society. This law applies only to offenses punishable by sentences to the state prison. Two and a half years is the shortest term to which any convict may be sentenced under it, and the judge in passing sentence may fix the minimum at a considerably longer period. The court also pronounces the maximum sentence under the law, which varies according to the circum stances, as is the case in all states. When the minimum sentence has been served out, the board of prison com missioners examines the convict's record, and by that and other means ascertains how he has deported him self and what are the probable chances of his making good use of his time if set "free. On the recommendation of this board the Governor and council may release the prisoner, but he goes out with the remainder of the full maximum term hanging ovef him. If he Violates any of the conditions of his release- and they are very stringent or-If he breaks any law of the state, he goes .back to prison to serve out the maximum term, and the period during which he has been at liberty is not reckoned as a part of the term. Thl3 plan is an adaptation of the English ticket-of-leave.. It has the recom mendation of the penologists, social scientists, jurists and experienced legislators. Its advocates urge that valuable lives may be saved from utter wreck by giving a young man. or woman who has fallen under temptation a chance to try again. They urge that the interests of society and those of penitent criminals lie in the same direc tion; that the state and the individual will both be advantaged by giving the latter an opportunity to repair past errors. It is admitted that great care and circumspection will be required to so enforce this law as to make it a pub lic benefaction, but its friends are pledged to use their best endeavors to ward making the new departure a success. A COFFINED CORPSE. Ghastly Job an Artist Undertook to Please an Undertaker Friend. A well-known artist of Syracuse, N. Y., ia amusing a very few of hia friends with an experience he had some days ago that has a tinge of the uncanny. It seems, says the Star, that the artist has a friend who is an undertaker and who at that time was badly in need of assistance.- It seems that the undertaker had accidentally spilled a fluid upon the face of a body he was preparing for burial, and on account of his carelessness the fluid had acted upon the skin and turned it black in many places. The undertak er realized that something must bo done, and that very soon. It would be out of the question for the family to learn of the accident. For a mo ment he was nonplussed, tut hi3 mind shortly turned to hi3 artist friend, and he thought that he could relieve him. "It .was at night when he called," said the artist, in narrating the story, "and I had retired. At first it seemed impossible for me to attempt such a job as he laid before me, but his sad plight touched me, and I finally consented to do the best in my power. I went to the house with my box of paints. The undertaker en tered the front door, but he feared that suspicion would be aroused if I was seen. According to arrangements I waited outside until he had reached the death chamber. Then he silently raised the window, and I crawled stealthily In. For more than an hour I labored silently upon the spotted face, carefully painting over the black places, and finishing the whole with that effect which betokens death. It was a ghastly job, and I never want another like it. After it was all over the body looked as lifelike as pos- sible, and no one ever knew that the f&ce was entirely made up." A New Bread Padding- A new recipe for bread pudding has been found and is presented with the indorsement of being worth a place in the appendix leaves of the housekeep er's cook book. Soak one pint of fine crumbs in a pint of milk until soft, add three tablespoonfuls of cocoa dis solved in a little water, three well beaten eggs, a half cupful of granu lated sugar, and another pint of milk. Set the pudding dish in a pan of hot water and bake one hour. Whipped cream, flavored with vanilla, is very good with this pudding or a sauce made from a scant cupful of sugar, a tablespoonful of cornstarch, and a cupful of water may be used. Cook the ingredients in a double boiler ten minutes, and just before serving add an ounce of butter and a half teaspoon ful of vanilla. Odd Signs in Colambtis Some more odd signs are making their appearance about the city, says Columbus Dispatch. One reads: "Ed Hicks, formally with Joe Dokes Son." Another on East Long street, reads: "Fine Stalk of Second Hand Clothing." Another, which is meant to allure the hot and thirsty, reads: "Lamade, ice cream and pop." It must be that in that locality the pronuncia tion of lemonade is contracted by the heat. "I don't think it is right for a man to shake hands with his left hand." "But suppose his right hand is gone?" "Oh, then his left band would be right." Golden Day WE COULDN'T A fraction of the magnificent bargains we are offering the buying public.

And Also Two Other Men Who Acted tiuspl ciou.ly. A F. Poole the chicken thief whose pursuit by the officers was told in the Journal of Saturday, was captured at about 7 o'clock S iturday evening in a cornfield between Washbura college and Shuoganunga creek. Several officers- searched all day Saturday for Poolo but they confined their hunt chiefly to the north Bide of the river. Chief Wilkerson ordered Pooleif house on Van Buren street, near the Shuoganunga, watched closely, and also his place of business on Crane street At 6 o'clock tho police re ceived word that the man was at his house. Chief Wilkerson put a revolver in his pocket and went after him. When he arrived at the house the much wanted man had "flown.". Chief Wilkerson followed him and finally overtook him near Washburn college. Poole made no resistance and was taken at once to the city prison where he was booked, and was then transferred to the county jail. Officer Gaines walked twenty-three miles in hunting for Poole. He tracked two men several miles whom he thought were Poole and his partner. When he got in sight they ran. After a long chase he captured them. They proved to be Lpn Dick and Lee Workman who had been subpoened as witnesses ih the Sickinger case. They had run away to escape testifying. Gaines brought them to To peka and in court today they were fined $10 each for contempt of court. A. Xfw transship lane. City of Mexico, July 15.
