A Thousand Yards of Buntins and 3,000 Flags. A BIG FORCE OF 31 EX Began Today on the Work of Preparation Which Will Continue For Six Days Without Intermission. Representatise hall is now in the course of preparation for the charity ball on the evening of December 4. It is safe to say that when the prepara tions are completed Representative hall will not knosv itself. It wall wear a more elaborate attire than ever before, the occasion of the charity ball of last year not excepted. Mrs. C. S. Sutton has taken the work of decorating and arranging the hall in charge, and this fact is sufficient proof that it will present a handsome and Vv hoily elaborate appearance for next Friday evening-. A force of men are ncsv at ss-ork cleaning" the hall, bal conies and ante-rooms, and from this time on Mrs, Sutton will give her per sonal attention daily to the work of dec orating. It is expected that all ar rangements will be, completed by next Thursday es-ening. Three thousand American flags, smi lax sufficient to cover 600 square feet of space, brought from Alabama, 1,000 yards of cheese cloth of various colors, 200 Japanese lanterns, yards upon yards of colored tinsel, hundreds of palms, potted plants and flowers from Tope ka's seven green houses all these will go to make up the decorations for the charity bail. The manner of decorating has as yet been decided on only in a general svay, and the details will be taken up as the ss'oi'k progresses. A platform on an equal height with the speaker's stand will be built, en tirely covering the stand and clerk's table, and on this platform Watson's orchestra and the Alhambra Mandolin club will be stationed. The space to the left of the platform svill be reserved for Marshall's and Gormly's bands, and an equal space to the right of the plat form will be arranged as a "cosy cor ner," The floor from the platform to the entrance doors svill be canvassed for dancing, and chairs will be placed around the three sides of the hall. At the solicitation of the younger crowd, Mrs. Sutton vs' ill also have arranged a number of "tete-a-tete corners" at dif ferent locations around the hall. In the chief clerk's room on the right and to tire rear of the hall supper will be sers-ed. This room will be prettily decorated in yellow. The corresponding room on the right of the hall will be ar ranged as a reception room. The west balcony of the hall will be resotwed for the dancers. In the ante rooms on each side of this balcony ices ssill be served throughout the evening. The rooms svill be prettily decorated in different colors. The east baicony of the hall will be thross-n open to the public ss-ithout invi tation, and ail those svho desire to ss-it-ness the bail and enjoy the excellent musical programme can do so. Admis sion tickets to this balcony can be pro cured for 50 cents. The pillars supporting both balconies will be prettily entwined svith smilax and cheese cloth. The music for the ball has been en gaged as late as 2 o'clock. Marshall's band svill play the grand march and the first six numbers of the programme and Gumiiy's band will then take the place of Marshall's. Watson's orchestra and the Alhambra Mandolin club svill furnish music throughout the evening-. Nothing nosv remains in the svay of arrangements ss-ith the exception of the preparation of the hall. The sale of tickets has been good, the sales noss' age-regating nearly 200; one thousand invitations ss-erc issued.

Has a Case Before J udga Poster in the Circuit Court Jud?e Frank Doster, chif justice-elect, appeared before Judge Foster today in a civil action. Some time agro Jude Doster brought suit to recover 4.000 acres of land which was transferred by E. M. Donaldson, defaulting- president of the First National bank of Marion. It was claimed that the land was transferred to defraud cred itors. An effort was made to have the pro ceeding's stopped on a technicality and it was that motion that was arsrued to day by Jude Ladd of Kansas City and resisted by Judge Poster. Judg-e Doster stood near Jtulge Foster and Talked in a subdued tone that was not heard by the spectators in the court room. There was no enthusiasm in his manner and the case called for little. He said a few words, read his authorities and sa t down. Jtulre Foster reserved his decision in the case. J- W. RUSH WANTS A FUSS Or Kather He Wants His Fuss With Vandivert Aired. Some of the friends of J. W. Rush have been quietly ag'kating- the question of trying- to t?et the house to prefer articles of impeachment against Judge S. W. Vandivert. Several members of the legis lature have b-en approached on the sub ject, but so far as can be learned these gentlemen have given IK tie encourage ment to the project. The memories of the people of the. state are too green in regard to the articles that were preferred against Jude Theotlius Botkin and the subsequent trial of the case and the ex pense thereby incurred, and as the whole matter between Judgre Vandivert and Mr. Rush started in a transaction between them some time apo and has already been tried by them in the newspapers it is thought by the members of the com ing legislature that they ought to finish their trial in. the form in which they be gan it. JUDGE NICHOLSON'S STORY. Which He Applies to His Candidacy for TJ. S. Senator. Judge M. B. Nicholson of Council Grove, who is one of the candidates for United States senator is in town today, lie said that his candidacy is coming on all rig-ht. When asked how many active candidates t here were in the race at the present time, he replied: "Well that puts me in mind of the old Scotchman who was asked how many orthodox members his church had and said, 'Weel, there's meself and Sandy and to tell the truth I have some doubts about Sandy.' There are two or three others beside myself but I have some doubts about them." SUPIIEME COURT TO SIT. Has a Number of Important Cases to Consider Tuesday Next. The supreme court will convene on Tuesday next. This will be the last sit ting of th- court at which Chief Justice Martin will preside. There are a large number of important cases set for hear ing. The case of The Commercial As surance company against Norwood will be one of the interesting cis-il cases. This is one of the lot of insurance cases that comes up from Pawnee county and in ss-hieh there was much contros-ersy over the granting of the stay of proceedings at the time that the cases were filed. Receiver for the Anthony Line. Judge Foster has appointed Dwight Eramiiii of Boston, receiver of the St. Louis Kansas Southwestern railway, a branch of the St. Louis San Francisco, sixty miles long, extending from Anthony to Arkansas City. The road was aban doned some time ago by the St. Pouis San Francisco company because they claimed it was operated at a loss. The application for a receis-er was made on the application of eastern bond holders who have t!)0.000 of the bonds of the company. It is probable that the ap pointment of the receiver will result in the road being reopened to traffic. Armours' Big Lumber Contract. Kansas City, Xos-. 28. Armours have completed the specifications and will shortly let the contract for the annual supply of lumber for the manufacture of boxes for the shipment of the packing house output during the coming year. More than 1.000,000 of 300 different kinds and sizes are used by this firm every year. It will take 600 ears to haul the lumber to be used, and about 100 people will be employed in putting the boxes to gether. KANSAS-MINNESOTA GAME. The Minnesota Players are Heavier but Kansans are Hopeful. Kansas City, Nov. 28. Minnesota and Kansas state unis-ersity elevens lined up at Exposition park here this after noon for a game of football. The north erners outclassed the Kansas players in sveight but the latter, enthused by their victory over the Missourians Thanksgiving day, were confident of winning again today. The conditions for the game ss-ere ideal. CAN'T COME TO KANSAS. "Webb McNall Says Cantankerous Easterners Should be Quarantined. Webb McNall has a novel plan to stop the abuse of Kansas now being- indulg ed in by eastern people and eastern pa pers and he outlined it today to Senator Stern.- and a party of friends in the clerk's office of the United Slates court. I think ss-e ouaiit to quarantine against tneni." said he. "We ought to keep them out of f he s'a te.Our peopleare so much above them in honesty and general intelligence that sse ought to refuse to allow them to enter the state. We do not need them and if they have decided that our people are such terrible creatures it might lie a good idea to not allow them to associate with them." The eastern papers with their usual gullibility will now probably take up this remark with great solemnity and discuss it as an actual plan of the Kan sas people. Dll. JAMESON DYING. Leader of the Transvaal Raid in a Critical Condition. London. Nov. 28. Dr. Jameson, the leader of the Transvaal raid, under going a sentence of 15 months' impris onment in Hoilosvay jail, whose sick ness has previously been noted, is now announced to be in a critical condition. KEEPS GROWING. Big II ami) n rg Strike Spreads to .Municipal Workmen. Twenty Thousand Men Now Re ported to Have Quit. PARIS "FIGARO" SATS The Strike is Fomented hy British Shipowners To Divert Trade to the English Ports. Hamburg, Nov. 28. The municipal workmen employed about the w-ater and gas works demand an increase of wages, threatening to go on a strike today if it is not granted them. London, Nov. 28. The executive committee of the London Dock Labor ers' union has received a dispatch from the leaders of the strikers at Hamburg asking them to do all in their power to prevent steamers from Hamburg seeking coal from procuring it. The coal heavers at Hamburg yesterday decided to join the striking dock la borers, and this action, it is believed, will compel steamers accustomed to coal at Hamburg to seek their fuel elsesvhere. Should the London men re fuse to coal steamers putting into the Thames to fill their bunkers their ac tion svould, it is thought, tend to greatly strengthen the cause of the Hamburg strikers. Hamburg, Nov. 28. The strike of dock laborers gives promise of becom ing extensis-e by the addition of men from other branches of the shipping trade. A very largely attended meet ing of corn porters and coal heavers was held here today, and it was almost unanimously decided to join the strike. It was announced at the meeting that the port laborers of Holland, Belgium, Kngland and the United States had promised to support the strikers here. Paris, Nov. 2S. The Figaro accuses British shipowners and manufacturers of fomenting the strikes at Hamburg in order to divert trade to English ports. Hamburg, Nov. 28. The allied labor ers, engineers, donkeys and boiler cleaners' union have resolved to pre serve solidarity with the striking dock laborers, to give them financial aid and to go on strike if necessary to the success of the men who are out. The coal Dorters in the employ of the Herdmann firm ceased work this morn ing. The Plamburg-American Line steamer Furst Bismarck svill be fitted out svith sleeping accommodations, etc., for the use of the men who are work ing. London, Nov. 28. The Daily Chroni cle prints a dispatch from Berlin say ing that there are probably 20,000 men in the ranks of the strikers. According to a dispatch from Ham burg to The Central News, work is be ing carried on upon only 35 vessels out of 214 noss- in port there. The employ ers of the dock laborers declare that the strike must necessarily collapse in a short time, as no assistance in the shape of funds for the support of the strikers is being received from outside sources. Nesv York. Nov. 2S. The Hamburg American Steamship company's, agency in this city does not expect the strike in Hamburg to spread to its docks in Hoboken. The agent, Mr. Boas, has receis-ed only meager reports of the extent of the strike and the measures svhich will lie taken to meet it. He thinks it svill be settled soon. Edsvard McHugh. representative of the International Federation of Ship, Dock and River Workers, said yester day that the Nesv York longshoremen are not preparing to strike in aid of the men in Hamburg. He has recently organized four unions of the longshore men in Ness- York, and these, together with the old organizations which he has been strengthening, include 1,000 members. NO INTERNATIONAL STRIKE. Statement by Labor Leaders That Troubla Won't Reach Other Countries. New York, Nov. 28. Samuel Woods and John Malinson. delegates of the British trades' unions to the cons'ention of the American Federation of Labor to be held in Cincinnati in the middle of December arrived on the Cunard steam ship Campania today. They were met by Contract Labor Inspector Robert Watchorn. an old friend and associate and formerly secretary of the miners' union of the United States. Delegate Woods has been for four years the sec retary of the trades' union and was once a member of parliament for the division of Lancashire. Delegate Woods said as he stepped from the ship to the dock: "I have not heard about the strike of the Ham burg and Kiel dock laborers, but I do not believe that there will be an inter national strike of dock laborers in sym pathy svith them. They might as svell strike the moon," said he. "We do not believe in strikes, nor do sse believe n arbitration: ss-e prefer conciliation. "We knoss- no political party in our labor mos-ement in England. Our con stitution forbids it. We are for labor only. T do not knoss- svhat svould be best for the American workingman. but I may be able to offer some sugges tions, after I has-e studied the local color of the subject here. "The British trades union is composed of one and a quarter millions of work ing men and ssomen svomen being an important factor in our organization, especially in the book binding indus try. "In Great Britain trades unions are the most important factors in regard to wages and hours. We have in par liament eleven labor leaders and we have ten labor leaders svho are stipen diary magistrates." It is understood that Samuel Gompers will preside at the Cincinnati conven tion.

HUNTING IN DARK WOODS Has Its Inconveniences So Some To peka Hunters Find Out Last Wednesday was the night it rained all night. It svas also the night Fred Kellam. Jim Larimer, Fred Gordon and Dr. Will Adams of Eaton had chosen to go coon hunting. Neither would give up and there was a conflict. They went to Gordon's farm with a dog and waded around all night look ing for coons without scaring up even so much as a seven or eleven. They did succeed in getting four opossums, however, one each, and none for the dog. But the dog got even. Just as they were about to start home in the doubtful light of the early morning the dog treed something. Thirsting for more ads-enture the four piled sleepily out, tied the team and went to the aid of the dog. The animal, they said, was on the limb of a tree and all took several shots at it. Finally it fell dosvn in their midst very much alive and pretty mad. The young men say they escaped by running and suffered no great personal inconvenience excepting that the dog. which stayed too long, insisted on be ing friendly and had to lie shot and buried svith a liberal supply of lime sprinkled over him. MAY WHEAT $1. Large Sales of No. 2 Red Made in Toledo at That Figure. Toledo. O., Nov. 28.

Some of the slate-makers who are busy figuring as to who will get differ ent positions under the incoming ad ministration has-e -already begun to speculate on the probabilities as to who will be appointed bank commissioner if John W. Breidenthal should be sent to the senate. No one has announced himself as a candidate for this position yet. Some of the parties that were discussing the question today seemed to think that one of the present depu ties svould be tendered the position in case there was a vacancy. M. A. Waterman, who is one of the present deputies, said svhen asked in regard to the matter: "1 am sure I have not thought anything in regard to who will be ap pointed, as it is only a contingency, you know. If the governor should think fit to appoint one of the present deputies, I should just as soon see Frank Osborn (the other deputy) get the position as to have it myself. He would make a good man and is thor oughly familiar with the work and has worked for the success of the party." NEGRO BUTTS A SHEEP. In the Unequal Contest the Sheep was Killed. Atchison, Nov. 28. Thanksgiving sports in this city were unique and in teresting. Colonel Bob Tollman, formerly af Mississippi wagered $100 with Rufus Chotaugh that he could kill, pluck, draw and eat a chicken within 15 min utes. The novelty of the contest at tracted a large crowd to the restaurant and numerous side bets svere made, one man losing his watch and another his shotgun. Preparatory to beginning the feat Colonel Tollman was provided with a hot fire, skillet, two flat irons and hot and cold water. The decapitation, plucking and draw ing of the chicken consumed less than four minutes. Then the fowl was put in the red-hot skillet and pressed down with the hot irons. The cooking was complete within an incredibly short time, and within eles-en minutes Col. Tollman had consumed the chicken and pocketed his winnings. A $5 svager was made by one local sport against another that Job Jarman, a negro. could kill a sheep in five rounds in a butting match. The negro and sheep "lined up." The negro got down on his knees and said "baa." The sheep got mad and "went for" the negro, knocking him over. .In the next round the negro gauged the sheep accurately, and by ducking his head struck the sheep on the nose as it made its second assault and by some wonder ful dexterity tossed it over his head, breaking its neck. Job Jarman is known here as the "double-skulled" negro. A rabbit round-up on the island just above the city resulted in the killing of 950 rabbifs. A 'possum hunt in the "darky" set tlement near Sumner the night before Thanksgis-ing resulted in the capture of 14 animals and a grand barbecue. FRANK JAMES' NEW JOB. Chief Harrigan Recommends Him for a St. Louis Police Commissioner. St. Louis, Nov. 2.8. Frank James. bro ther of Jesse James, the notorious train robber and ex-member of the James gang, is an aspirant for the honors of a St. Louis police commissionership, and Chief Harrigan will be his friend in the race. The ex-outlaw declares himself a candidate: "I am not out after office." he said, "but I'd take the place if it ss-ere of fered to mi-. "And if it ss-ere given to me I would do my duty ss-ithout fear or favor." "What kind of a police commissioner do you think Frank Ja,mes svould make?" was asked of Chief of Police Harrigan. "First rate," ansss-ered the chief. "He svould make a good officer." Frank James has led an exemplary life for years. lie has aimed at ac quiring a reputation for honesty and integrity rather than at making money. Numerous publishers have offered him fabulous sums to write a book, but he has steadily refused all of these prop ositions. His greatest desire in life seems to be to lis-e dosvn the past. Frank James has lived in St. Louis for a long time. He does not gamble, smoke, drink or swear. He has gained a livelihood by taking tickets at James Butler's Standard theater for ses-eral years past. Before that time he clerk ed in a shoe store. He is giving his son a first class education and otherwise endeavoring to lead the life of not only a model, but a progressive citizen.

The Island State Is Anxious For Annexation. Probability That Hawaii May Soon Be Annexed. Washington, Nov. 2S. Mr. Francis M. Hatch, the representative from Hawaii to the United States has re turned to the city after a long absence.. The minister was asked for an inter view on the prospects of a renewal dur ing the incoming administration of steps for the annexation of Hawaii to the United States. Mr. Hatch declined lo talk on the subject but referred his questioner to the following resolution passed by the legislature of Hasvaii in May last, as showing the attitude of his government on the subject: Whereas, It has- been heretofore the announced policy both of the present government and of the republic of Ha waii to advocate the annexation of the Hasvaiian island to the United States of America, and Whereas. The legislature of the re public of Hasvaii is nosv in regular ses sion assembled and ssill adjourn for a considerable period, and Whereas. It is fitting that the select ed representatives of the people should place themselves on record as to the present state of feeling among themselves and their constituents on this subject, be it Resolved. By the senate and house of representatives that the legislature of the republic of Hawaii continues to ha as heretofore, firmly and steadfastly in favor of the annexation of the Hasvaiin islands to the United States of America and in advocating such policy, they feel assured that they are expressing not only their own sentiments, but those of the voters of the republic. In thisconnection.it svill be recalled that just beforetheclose of the lastadminis tration Secretary of StateFoster negotia ted a treaty with a commission from Hawaii for the annexation of thatcoun try to the United States. It was sent to the senate by President Harrison. but was not acted on during his administra tion. After President Cleveland came into office, anil before the senate had disposed of the treaty, the former with drew it. The document not. having been rati fled by this government, nothing svas done by the Hasvaiians. The legisla ture of Hawaii will not meet again for sometime. It is understood, however, that the president of that country has the power should he deem it expedient at any time to reopen negotiations with the United States for a treaty looking to annexa tion. No information is obtainable at the legation respecting the recent ac tion of the Hasvaiian government in re gard to the proposition for certain ex tentions granted to Col. Spalding in re gard to a Pacific cable. The Hasvaiians, Minister Hatch says are anxious to have the cable laid particularly between tiie United States and Hasvaii. and as an evidence of their desire, have offered a subsidy of $40,000 a year towards the maintenance of the latter svhich is re garded as a large amount svhen coming from such a small country. The con cession originaly granted to Col. Spald ing for the cable between Hasvaii and the United States, it appears gave him an exclusis-e franchise, for 20 years pros-lded he obtained aid from his gov ernment within 18 months after the date of concession. The time expires in May next so that speedy action is nec essary if the original terms of tiie agreement are adhered to. EOURKE COCK KAN FOR WAR Ready for it if it is Necessary to Free Cuba. New York, Nov. 28. St. Leo's church was crowded svith Cubans and their sympathizers this morning when a r -quiem mass was celebrated in memory of the eight Havana medical students -who were executed by the Spanish vol unteers in the city of Havana on No vember 27, 1871. The services svere con ducted by the Rev. Father Dimey. Another commemcrai is-e service svas held in Chickering hall last night which was crowded, when Dr. Lincoln dd Zayas called the meeting to order and announced that Pourke Cockran, Chus. A. Dana, Emanuel Sanguilly, Enrique J. Varma and Dr. Enrique Harnett would be the speakers. Bourke Cockran's speech was one of the most eloquent ever made by him. He urged intervention by this govern ment in the interest of civilization and humanity. Further, he said, that if necessary, the Cubans should be allowed to pur chase their freedom from Spain and that in the interest of peace, the United States should guarantee the payments of the bonds. "However, it is time," he declared, "that the executive should make known his views upon the Cuban question and if the word svas spoken, freedom would be secured without (la firing of a single shot. But if armed interference should become necessary in the cause of humanity, he favored ;i final resort to arms. He added: "This is not a matter which concerns the Cu ban people alone. It is murder. There is a moral lasv as binding upon Ameri cans as individuals. Here we would not permit a dog to be killed excepting in a humane way. and if sse profct dogs, why not stop the massacres of Chris tians." At this time a Cuban, who had been overcome by passion shouted "Curse Cleveland." The speaker having caught the exclamation, lost no time to reply: "My friend, "he said, "no man will bring a curse upon this country by a failure to do his duty." Resuming his speech .Mr. Cockran de clared: "P is time this government should speak out and has-e the courage of its conviction. I hope it does and it will not be to annex Cuba, but ti lib erate it." In conclusion Mr. Cockran said: "This government must speak upon the Cu ban question. Never before has so much power been s-ested in the execu tive. Will our president pronounce the word of doom or liberation? If he de clares Cuba Tree that flag (pointing to the stars and stripes) svill be the sym bol of liberty and progress to mankind."

RUNS 200 JULES AMI 0 I'll. Fast Electric Engine Turned Out by the Baidwin Works. New York, Nov. 2S. A locomotive that .will run 200 miles an hour has just been completed at the Baldwin Loco motive works in Philadelphia. Jt is called the lighning express electric lo comotive. Nothing that resembles it has ever been constructed. It is an nounced that with this locomotive a speed of l.'u miles an hour has been made privately. This would bring Chi cago within rive hours' ride of New York. In appearance the new' locomotive gives hardly a suggestion of its speed. There is little mechanism visible, as the motors are hidden in jackets of steel, with the exception of the driving wheels whose length and solidity are not so ap parent from their size as from their construction. The locomotive has the appearance of an ordinary baggage car. While not in the least resmuiing the conventional locomotive in outward ap pearance, this one is considered the most complete in the world. The frame is made of 10-inch rolled steel channels, surrounded by a half inch rolled st"el Plate, covering the entire floor. The plate is an important detail, as it gives strength to resist blows in collision. The frame is carried on two trucks, which have all the easy riding features of car trucks, that is, soft springs, swinging motion ami free movement. D R Ol T 0 C H T 1 HEATHER.

It is doubtful if there is money enough in Europe to pay the claims to estates in Holland alone which have been presented to this department.

He was detained in this prison, and during that time was unable to make known his identity, he says, for the reason that none of the officers of the prison could speak English. At the end of live days he was placed on a steamer and sent to Saghalien. There he was put to work with the other prisoners building a fort. The prison ers worked in squads of ten, each squad beir.g in charge of a soldier gua.rd. and from the size and appearance of the fort, it was intended simply as an ob ject to keep the prisoners at work. He was subsequently allowed the freedom of the cdty on parole, but each of his efforts to smuggle letters to his friends was frustrated. He ultimately arranged with the captain of a Japanese fishing junk to transport him and was packed in a cask among a cargo of salmon and reached Hakodate in safety. Thence he went to Yokohama as a stowaway in a steamer. From Yokohama he says he went to Port Said, and from there to Gibraltar. He next made Liver pool and from there shipped as a sailor on a vessel bound for Newport. K. I. The captain of the vessel interested him self in the young sailor and procured him- a half rate railway ticket to St. Louis. From that eity he tramped and rode on brake-beams to San Francisco, arriving at that point two weeks ago, five years from the time of his depart ure. Olson has not been able to find any of his relatives since his arrival. He is endeavoring to get the authorities to take some action in his case with a view of causing the Russian govern ment to indemnify him for his impris onment. Ohio's New Death Machine Tried.

Chicago, Nov. 28. Chicago women have in hand the organization of a women's athletic club. It is to offer all the advantages of a club with gym nastic features, with the Chicago Ath letic club as a model. The project was broached at a meet ing of more than iioO society women and enthusiasts in athletic matters, which was held at the athletic club. It was the regular monthly "woman's day" tendered by the club to the fami lies of members, and the discussion had been announced by a circular outlining the plans, which was mailed to more than 500 persons. While more than a score of the wo men prominent as society's leaders are taking a leading part in the organiza tion of the new club, they prefer at this time not to have their names dis closed. It is said this reticence will disappear as soon as the permanent committees are chosen. Mrs. Susie Cocroft, secretary of the Extension society, is credited with first proposing that a club be founded by women after the pattern of the Chi cago Athletic club. once suggested, the idea spread among the women w ho frequent the athletic club at its gen eral receptions. It is said, indeed, that most of those concerned in g'-ttlng up this woman's project are the wives and daughters of tile members of the Chi cago Athletic association. Mrs. Cocroft spoke of the project re servedly yet with enthusiasm at her home last evening. "While no laws have as yet been drawn up the general outline of the club is practically agreed on," said she. "Membership will be limited probably to 500. Applications for membership, it is proposed, will be passed upon by a committee. Great care and discrimin ation will be used in admitting appli cants. It is proposed to found the in stitution on an exclusive basis. "We shall secure comfortable down town quarters as near the other club as possible, and when the club demon strates its worth we hope somebody will help us build our own home. We think it altogether likely some man wdll be found who will erect such a club house as a memorial to his wife. "The- temporary quarters will have a fully equipped gymnasium, massage parlors. Turkish, shower and vapor baths, halt-dressing parlors, lounging rooms and the usual accompaniments of a well arranged club on modern lines. Besides athletic training there will be instruction in Delsarte work, vrdee culture and so on. The member ship fee will entitle the holder to all the privileges excejjt for baths, mass age and hairdressing. for which there will be a nominal charge. "The olubrooms will be open all day long, and at special evening entertain ments to members and their daughters and at the set affa.irs light lunches, such as chocolate and wafers will be served. "A physical director, who is a physi cian, will be in charge of the gymna sium. He wull make an examination of each member upon entering forgym nasium work, prescribing special train ing, and have control of the kinds and quantity of exercise that any member will be allowed to take. Basketball, indoor tennis and other games will be a feature." OFFICIAL KENTUCKY VOTE. McKinley's Plurality is 281 He Gets 12 Electors and Bryan 1. Frankfort. Ky., Nov. 2S.

Immense Saving Made in the Light ing of the City. Topeka's new liaditinR- plant is proving an x reliant investment. When tlie proposition to refit the city plant with nw electrical inar!ii;;t'i'y was ma!j an attempt was made to have the city plant abandoned and the lighting- h t by contract. It was argued tie-n that il would cost more to operate th' plant than contractors would ask for the same kind of service. The lowest oftVr on contract, was ?sli per litfht by the year. The counciimen did not seriously con sider the proposition to change t tie sys; em and the experience with the new machinery proves that they were wise. The est of operating the city plant counting snlariep of employes and all ex penses was only per Hht last month which at the same ratio would make only $:;7.c-o per annum for each lit. t. It y Kngineer Barnes thinks that tbe average may run as high as $1 per month but that would only be $4s a year whib the private company asked $53 for the same ser ice.

"MUNICIPAL STOVES." In Municipal Street Cars Discussed in Some Circles. There is g-ossip to the effect that the corning session of the legislature will not only pass a bill to compel street car companies to put vestibules on the cars but will also require them to warm the cars either with stovesor electricity dur ing cold weather. A Topeka Republi can says: "I have always been ag-ainst munic ipal ownership of street cars but a few more rides like the one I took this morning- will make me favor it. I am sure if the city owned this line that we should never have an administration that would dare to run street cars un warmed. They say that it cost $3 per day to heat the cars. That is just ex actly 10b fares and I know that more people than that walked down town this morning to keep warm. I should have clone so myself, if I had not been late in getting started."

The rates promised us by the railroads are even low-r than we had hoped to obtain. "The Missouri Paciric. Iron Mountain and Cotton Belt lines have made us a very low rate. The Illinois Central peo ple treated us generously as those prev iously seen, promising- a handsome re duction in the rate. "We will see the Anchor Line peop'e after we get home and I have no doubt we will get a special river rate. "After we report to Governor Foster, he will appoint a special committee to buy the corn. Outside aid will not be asked. The state can and will care for its own." TO JIEP l'EN DLETOX. Congressman Cooper Interested in the Florida Newspaper Man's Case. Washing-ton, Xov. 2S.

Pendleton, a Florida newspaper man had been taken off the Morgan line steamer at Havana yesterday by the Spanish authorities as he was about to sail for Key West.

MB.. PEFFEE ISN'T FUNNY. From the Boston Herald. 1 There is opposition to ehooFimr Peffer ai-airi to tite senate fr.un Kansas. The nation ioui.1 well risk a novelty in that bi'd' after six years .f his sel ious dull ness, ar.d, ijerliaps, Kansas has the same feeliner. Peffer is. no doubt, hon est, and aiso earnest in his way, but he lacks liveliness badly. If he would give way to occasional excitement, as does Stewart of Nevada, there would be some mitieration of his boredom. The senate is to lose Call of Florida, and it would improve the grayety of that body if Peffer should g-o with him. Peffer was originally a Republican, has held to hiirh tariff views imbibed in thru party, and has been rather in clined to act on the Republican side of the chamber hen his hobbies were not in issue. This is said to have hurt him with the new men who have come into power in Kansas. There -are lots of them, also, who want his seat for themselves, of course. Rut his more important offense is lack of humor. No man has a ris"lit to be so gravely schoolmastet ish in public life as is he. Senator Hoar says the east must win back the confidence of the west. Twelve to one appears to e what Kentucky thinks the ratio should be. Senator Dubois doesn't talk like a man who wanted to take his St. Louis bolt back. And so. Mr. Reed, you are accused of having- given Canton the icy glare as you passed by. If it be true that Mr. Reed doesn't like Mc Kinley, the speaker is acquiring some of the characteristics of a Dem ocrat. It is barely possible that Trinity ehurch in New York is settling- down because some of the parishioners won't settle up. Mexico has the impudence to go rifrht on havintf a boom in spite of the recent "kil'ii.K" f the silver cause in the United Slates. The "bear walk" which has be-m in troduced by the Kansas university giris would be a highly interesting fea ture if introduced at mixed parties. The evangelists who are grointr to convert New York have Hob Ing-ersoll there now. which gives them a chance to show- what kind of stuff they are made of. When Senator Peffer got word that Mr. P.reideiiihal was trying- to be sen ator himself, he probably set down one more reason why the world should be reformed. We surest to Mr. McKinley that if he is going to disregard Mr. Piatt's ad vce and "take the lid off of by recognizing- Whitelaw Rein," during- this cold spell is the time to do it- Kansas university grirls have been indulging- in the pastime of walking on all fours. This is better than the amusement university boys sometimes indulge in, which fixes them so they can't walk, except In a stagger. It will be hisrhly edifying; for the thousands of Ghicapro citizens who have to stay at home evenings for fear of thieves and thuqs to read in their papers about the dishonesty and ras cality of the people of Kansas. If the esteemed editor cf the Phi rac." Tril.une would like to live where he would tic; t be in dar-jrer of being knocked down and robbed on the streets. Kansas will waive for once her particularity as to the kind of immi grants she receives. Kmp'.ria Republican: According: to some of the New York anil Chicago papers the people of Kansas may de sire to pay their debts in cheap money. However, it is something in their favor to desire to pay in any kind of money. Rut if you wish to itriess an exhibiiion of "perridy and dishon. r" of riht down dishoneity, reptid '.a! i. n and perjury in those cities, just let the government levy an income tax.

DUX'S ilEI'OilT. Business Largs but Demand Not Equal to Producing Capacity. New York, Nov. 25. 11. O. Dun Cu.'s weekly report of trade says: When the rush of orders after the election slackened many b gan to think business dwindling. -Subside ace of de ferred orders is not dec rease of busi ness. Broadly speaking, the gain has been greater than anybody expected and it is not surprising: if a small part of it is in excess of the present consuming demand. Reports from ail parts of the country show clearly the enlargement of trad not at all points in the same branches, but evt-ryuhere helpeei by a. more con tiJevnt feeling. Extremes of weather 1 have made the week not altogether g-ood for retail trade, but in that line aiso there is improvement on tlio whole. Wheat has risen over G cents for the week, without any material change in foieiirn advices, which have been on the whole less stimulating. Western receipts are falling behind last year's and for four weeks Must there have been only lii,'i!2.54 bushels, against 27, ;i02,('2i last year, while the exports. flour included, have been ti,270,!il bushels in the same weeks, against 6,265.01s last year and are not large enough to create excitement. But 13 cargoes have left Taeonia in November and 30 have left San Francisco, with 12 more loading: and 50 engage-d. The milling demand in the- Atlantic states is large and at four western cities the output of Hour in five weeks has been 2,655,415 barrels, uaainst 2,t.'l,!.3i)0 barrels in the same week last year. Corn lias sympathized with wheat only a little and is coming fee-ward freely. The most important factor in the wheat market is that the visible supplies do not gain a- much aa has beer, expected. Cotton has gained only a sixteenth after its considerable decline. The northern mills are taking much less cotton than in previous years, and the de-rnand for goods is evidently disap pointing. Wool was and is still bought largely for speculation and earlier purchasers are unloading on the later, but mills are not yet doing much more than in lotober. A few more have been started, but there is scarcely more demand apparent for staple goods. In cluding staple operations the sales of wool have been for temr weeks 37,814, 100, of which 2. 212,000 were domestic, against 21.2f6.o50 last year, of which 13.5S1.750 were domestic, and 24.371.S21 In 1X93. of which 21,659,6'.'6 were domes tic. But the producing capacity in opera tion does not seem to be half the ca pacity of the works, and the stoppage of several large carpet mills within the past ten days is of importance. The coiiapse of the nail combination, and perhaps of the beam combination and considerable reduction in quota tions for beam?, give reason to look for a larger demand for products of iron and steel, but at present the sales against speculative purchase's made some time ago are depressing prices and Re.-.-e-mer pig has sold at ?12.25, and, according to senile reports, a little lower at Rittsi-urc. The ep-marici for such products as are not cmtrolled by the combination is somewhat inereas ing, but by no ineiuis as rapidly as expected. Tn minor metals, tin is scare-ely as strong as it was a w-eek ago, but copper and leal are str inger. Failures for the week have been 300 in the United States, against. 270 last year and 3S in Canada, against 47 last year.

Simple Life of the Hardy Swiss Peasantry. Women in tb.3 Hay Field Children and Their Attire The Peasant's Kitchen A Frugal Race. Cppeb Dautizrbkennex, Switzerland, Nov. 7. The throngs of tourists that; have been overflowing Switzerland since the 1st of June are thinned out. Tho larger hotels are closed, and life has taken np its routine course, if it may ba said to have such. I am not altogether sure tho summer tourist traffic is not the regular routino and the other life merely iucieltmtal to that. Certainly in the high Alps here it enters into the consideration of everything. For in stance, the snow has fallen heavily oa the mountain tops during the recent cold weather, and tho dairy goats aro driven down to lower feeding grounds. The last hay crop, too, of the season has been harvested, and the farmers' autumn work is fast closing up, and preparations are being made for the long winter. It is interesting to note how tho haying is done here, for it rains ko much there is little dry, warm weather to cure it, and I am forced to comxare tha methods of agriculture here with those in America. The man of the house in these parts is the one who does the mowing generally, thongh it is no un common ooourreuco to see a woman swinging a scythe herself. He may quite likely mow in the rainstorm, the woman following and spreading out the hay with a wooden fork. Thus spread, it may remain on the ground for several days till the weather holds off so it can be harvested. When a clear day comes, the women go out and toss it np inces gantly, getting out the water, and then both men and women do it up in bun dles and carry it on their backs to the chalet. In these high Alps I have not Eeen a beast of burden of any sort, neither horse, ox nor donkey. Men, women and children share the burden of carrying everything. In long, cone shaped bas kets, or wooden firkins, strapped on their shoulders, they carry wood, milk, water, vegetables, etc., the size of tho basket or tirkin varying with the size and strength of the one who carries it. The porters, too, carry trunks, bags and boxes through the mountain passes on framework-j strapped to their shoulders. In this same way the winter's supply of wood is brought to the chalet These lower valley chalets are built to accom modate the family, the animals, all the fowls, swine, every living thing under one roof, besides the fuel, the grain and hay and winter's full supply of nourish ment. The odors are not particularly in keeping with American ideas of com fort, but I am almost convinced that the Swiss as a nation have lost the fifth sense or they could not tolerate tha smells they have. Speaking of the small farmers in the high Alps, however, I have visited many of these chalets, and they bespeak the greatest simplicity and what seems to me poverty. Scarce an article of furniture that ia not made with their own hands, and these arti cles are as limited in number as the exigencies of the case may warrant. In one chalet I visited I found a father, mother, grandmother, twin infants per haps 8 months old and five small chil dren, the eldest under 10 years of age, aud yet he had the face of a grantlfa ther. Such old faces these children have, and their clothes are a miniature repro duction of the father's. In this especial chalet, which consisted of two rooms besides the basement, where were kept the animalu, and the attic, where the hay and grain were stored, I found the complete furnishings included two beds, a table, a long bench, two three legged Etools and a row of shelves and a seat under the wiudow. The five children all sat in a row on the bench at my ap proach, the twins occupied a prominent position oa the floor, and the grand inother, who was too old to work, was seated on one of the stools. The father and mother were harvesting the hay. They never allow grass to grow up as high as we do in America before cut ting, but tiike it as a sort of rowen, G to 8 inches high, while it is tender. I wonder why it doesn't mold or mildew, and perhaps it does both. But I see it banked agpinst the. chalet under tho projecting eaves curing on drizzly days, and perhaps the fire inside the house helps to dry it. The peasant's kitchen is a room that interests me. There may bo one small wiudow in it, and there may be 110 window at all. The stove, or hearth, or fireplace, whichever it may be, is built as tho occasion may warrant, either cf a pile of stones in the center or at best of a store, with brick backing, but there is no stovor;pe or chimney flue. Tho smoke pours, out in the room and curl ing upward goes out at the roof. I was for a time at a loss to account for tho wooden chimneys and why they did not burn up the houses. But the fact is tho kitchen roof runs up like the roof of a hop kiln to an apex, and crowning this is the chimney. It is unnecessary to 6uy these kitchens are black, dingy, unin viting looking places, and I am still un able to sco w hy they should not have a wiudow to light them. In the poorer places the fire is built in a stone pile, much as one arranges in the camping out season, hanging the kettle over it, but wood that sends sparks far does not seem to bo sed. Swiss j are chrcnic whittlers, and already they have commenced various objects more; or less elaborate that wrll occupy their winter time aud be put on sale at the magazines in Intcrlaken and the large towns. Switzerland is undoubtedly growing rich, aud that fast, as will reaaiiy ap pear when we consider the millions that each year aro brought there by tourists and theu realize that the Swiss spend scarcely a cent out of their own country. The food we are forced to eat at the very best hotels ia almost entirely tha product of the country. To be sure, tea and coffee, spices and sugar thev must import, but their grains and vegetables, meat and fruits are all home grown. Even the furnishings of their buildings arc wholly Swiss. They do not do as the Americans and English do tap the uttermost parts of the world for various things that finally turn from lururies to necessities. And, furthermore, they in sist, when you are with them, of mak ing you conform to their .ways. While there is great scholastic abili ty in the nation, among the poorer class es there is not that bright, intellectual quality that we find among the poor and squalid in America. I saw a man and woman plowing re cently. The plow was not unlike a har row. Tho woman drew it with a strap about her shoulders, while the man guided it and pushed aud hatcheled it up and down. Later I saw the sanis man spading an adjacent piece of ground. Women are truly helpmeets to men in this country. In fact, they seem to do the bulk of the work inside and outside, and while the men ure in the army of course they do it all. I cannot understand how these women who work in the field and whose bauds are hard and coarse can make all the lovely laces they do, and yet one sees them doing it the very fame women and they weave their own fiax aud hemp a good deal. In fact, in these higher Alp3 they seem to be able from the products of the eoil, either in animal, vegetable or min eral form, to make all the belongings cf their menage and supply all physical demands, aud I doubt if there is any other nation at this time, at the very dawn of the twentieth century, who are so wholly self reliant and able to de pend entirely on themselves as these vary Swiss. Geohqe E. Cook. AT ODD TIMES. Kora Scotia Trains Which Start at Twenly three o'clock. Special Correspondence. Halifax, Nov. 16. They are talking about arranging the hours on the deci mal plan in Paris of barring out 1 1 and 12 o'clock and making each hour one-fifth longer than it now is. Here in Nova Scotia they have something quite as interesting to the traveler from "the States" a 2-1 hour day, which knows no "a. m. or "p. m.," a day in which the numbered hours rnn right up to 21 and in whioh 24 o'clock is midnight. This designation of the hours you will find here and there in the United States, but never seriously adopted, I think. A shopkeeper, to attract atten tion, may put a clock of 24 divisions in his window, but it is regarded simply as a freak. Here the 24 hour time table is the only ono used by the railroads, and a3 the clocks keep on registering and reregistering to 12 o'clock every traintime after noon must be coupled with a mental calculation. It is amus ing at first and theu a little awkward. Eighteen o'clock is 6 p. m., and 20 o'clock is 8 p. m. It seems simple enough at first sight. Its novelty makes it interesting, but it grows annoying after a time, especially if you are study ing a long time card, making a selec tion from many trains. And when you have picked out yonr train and determined that it goes at 6 o'clock p. m. you find that it doesn't go at that hour at all. Why? Because the trains are all run on Boston time, which is an hour earlier than Halifax time. So your 0 o'clock train will go at 7 o'clock local time. And when you board the Boston steamer at the Plant line wharf, with a sharp edgo on your appetite, you will find that the 8 o'clock breakfast is served on Boston time, so that it is 9 o'clock Halifax time before the welcome triangle calls you to the dining room. It is a good breakfast when you get it, but that doesn't atone to you at the moment for the hour's do lay. American railroads we of the Unit ed States mean United States railroads, of course, when we say that have a change of time for each time division. Our trains start from New York on east ern time and arrive in Chicago on cen tral time, and these are the local times in both places. The railroads of these provinces have a uniform time from one end of the line to the other. Howard Weir. To Study Bird Flight. ttbpeciii.1 Correspondence. Bosto!, Nov. 16. A very interesting photographic competition, which was to have closed Oct. 1 of this year, has been reopened for another 12 months. Ayear ago the Boston Camera club, represent ing a gentleman of high standing in matters pertaining to aerial navigation, sent out circulars offering the following prizes for instantaneous rjhotographs of large soaring birds: A prize of $100 for the best instanta neous photograph of a large bird in tha act of soaring, an additional prize of $50 for the greatest number of instanta neous photographs offered by one pho tographer of largo birds iu the act of soaring. By soaring was meant the attitude of the bird in the air when no wing mo tion is apparent. The purpose) for which the photo graphs were desired the study of wing angles and a possible movement inap preciable to the eye of the observer necessitated that the figure of the bird should be at least half an inch long on the print. If the figure were small, but clearly defined iu detail, enlargements were to be submitted instead of contact prints, to be judged of equal merit with direct prints. It was provided expressly that if 100 different photographs had not been sub mitted by Oct. 1 the limit of time would ba extended. When Oct. 1 arrived, only three com petitors had entered for the prizes. It was decided, therefore, to postpone the competition for another year. A great deal of interest has been aroused among amatenrs, and it is believed that they will make particular efforts next sum mer to obtain photographs to euter for the ptizsi Ebwaki FisHEa.

Foreign Exporters Will Try to Get Exports in Before a New TarifE (Copyrighted. lMi, by Associated Press.) London. Nov. 2S. Representatives of The Associated Press have been making inquiries in various Hritish anil continental trade centres as to the ef fects upon trade already traceable to the result of the presidential election. These inquiries have been made among the leading export houses, at the Amer ican consulates and of the large for warding agents. In England 1 he increase in the num ger of invoices presented for authenti cation at all the consulates in the first we.-k after tlie election of MeKinley v.'as nit ire marked than during the sec ond and third weeks. But. the increase for the second and third weeks over the same period in October was at many consulates over 60 per cent. Among forwarding agents there is the general belief in good times abroad, many of them having since November made contracts for large amounts of cubic space. Exporters and large com mission houses i pert greatly increased activity, which they expect to continue for some time. American stocks of dry goods, etc., having been allowed to fall vi ry low The winter buyers, due shortly, are expected to order heavily. In iJc.blin, the election of MeKinley has been very cordially received by the exporters. There is ever where notice able a general expectation of improved trade during iv.7. In Paris the increase in the shipments to the United Staes lias been marked and considerable since the election. The itidicati'Mis in trade circh-s are that the exports during the next few months will be heavier than for a long time pa-t. This arises partly from the fact that many orders for meichandise have been given by American importers con ditional i)j.n the election of Mr. MeKin ley. and that a good many others had been withheld until the result was known. Another cause assigned for the actual and prospective increase in French trade with the United States is tiiat there is a widespread ant ieipation in France of an increase in the tariff and it is thought wise to anticipate such an event by large shipments of French g-nods to the United States while the existing- schedules remain in force. So far as can be judged by the expres sions of the exporters doing business through the Unitt d States consulate at Paris, the satisfaction at McKinley's election, whi h arises from his position on the currency question, is somewhat tempered by the fear that it will result in the tariff ehangi-S prejudicial to the interests of French manufacturers and fin iducers. In C-rmany, more particularly in Frankfort, the defeat of the free silver coinage proposition hs also been re ceived with satisfaction. This is per haps the more natural at Frankfort wh-n it is r-membercd how largely American national railway and indus trial securities are held by all classes. MA 11 LIJOHO I (J li OfTEXSI YE.

The bears continued to have their own way within certain limits and appeared to select Reading as their particular stock. There is no relaxation of the pressure against St. Paul and the objective point of the bears, now that the stock has broken below 75, is said to be 70. The bears chuckle over the probability that a larger percentage of operating expenses is likely to be shown by St. Paul for some time. It may be well to remind speculators that every additional ex penditure of the St. Paul company which increases its percentage of op erating expenses is of no less perman nent value. There is no reasonable doubt that the company will earn its 4 per cent dividend in the year ending June 30. 1M7. If business is left without new legis lation it will revive rapidly among the industrial companies. Sugar stock con tinues to show a steadiness which is not encouraging to those speculators who have been looking for a pre-con-gress break to par. American Spirits stocks are held in such strong hanils that the impression is daily strength ened that some important operation in connection with the company is con templated. In the higher circles of finance there is a firm feeling that pes simists will be disappointed in any forecasts which they may make of President Cleveland's message. In London there is decidedly easier feel ing with regard to the monetary situ ation in that center, owing to the sup ply of funds which has been furnish- d from this market by recent extensive operations in foreign exchange.

It is not. 3t may be storiped warded off at almost ii."y staiTe. But if the sufferer neglects to t-ike the proper remedy in the proper way, ec-ath is swift and certain. Consumption like almost all manner of disease has its inception in a trio of all etnbracingr disorders. They are imper fect digestion,'' l'irrejrular bowels," and "impure blood." They are triplets. One is dependent for existence upon the other. Cure one, cure all. Ir. Pierce's Golden Tdedical DiscoveTy is the best of all known remedies for this disorder. It corrects dis ordered difcrestioTi. invicorates the liver, Teerulates tiie bowels, makes the blood pure. Had the nerves strong. It is the sreat biood jmaker and tlcshobuilder. It makes the muscles firm and springy. It soothes and iav;orates the nerves. It tones up body and brain. It cures ninety-eight per cent. :i all cases of consumption. Mrs. Rebecca F.

DIVORCE LAViS TOO LAX Judge Ferry Says Tliis Ac counts For Wife Desertions In 31 any Instances That Come Under His Observation As Police Judge, Where He Sees Much of the Humbler Classes Where Desertion is most Frequent AlonzoWar dall Makes a Novel Suggestion. Police Judtre Ferry has been interest ed in the discussion of the desertion of w ives which is going on in The Journal, lie lias thought a little along the line of marriage and divorce and he says. "It must be admitted that the great trouble iiLs in hasty marriages, marri ages' without, a proper consideration for the importance of the marriage con tract or the sanctity of the marriage ows. l'eopie rusn in thoughtlessly. I'ar ents and ehiluren alike should be taught the folic of this. Thre is ready net en-Ligh education on the su.oj jet. It should he proach'-d evei y whei e.i'ar ents should preach it to their children tiie pia-achei's in th pulpit. ministers of the gospel should preach it to the chil dren and tie' parents. I doll t Consider that a minister is doing his whole duty if h- do,-s not do tiiis. "Til.- sanctity of the marriage rela tion shouid be impressed en tiie young people .as soon as tt:ey are old enougn to receive it and it shouid continue to be impressed as long as tla-re is any X'L-ssibiiity of a marriage for thc-au. "l'aniits should thoroughly discour age youthful marriage and so shouid pre aeiu-rs. "1 have noticed too that in about one third of tiie cases th.it get into tiie di vorce courts one or both of the parties involved have been marrud Pel ore. "This proves to me that our divorce laws are too lax. People actually rush into marriage with the f xpeotath ,n that the divorce laws will help them out of it as soon as they get tired of the con tract. K, me of them do ibis three or four times in a lifetime. "I would like to have a hand in a re vision of tiie divorce laws. I think I could make some suggestions that would not only mak,- divorces much harder but that would in c--nseq u, nee make people- do a great deal more thinking I than they do bef. -re they married at all. "in the hrst place I would increase the time for a second marriag from six I months, as it now stands on the statute j books, to a t least months and per i haps two years. It is a fact that peo pie get divorces now having in si0dit another marriage- when they do it. i "I would have further a legal defini 1 tion of what constitutes "extreme cruel ty.' There is no legal definition now and if a woman wants a divorce she is at liberty to give as evidence of ex t treme cruelty the fact that her husband swore at her. "If divorce laws were made more I string-nt I feel sure that while there j might be fe wer marriag. -s of the kind j we don't want, tile ones we would have would lie better ones and there would be fewer separations legal or olher i wise. I "And the subject of separations and i divorce is another question that proaoh ers ought to preach 011. A careful read I ini? of the Itible will show any person I that there is nothing there to encourage divorces or separations." Among the many women in Topeka j who think frii social and political proh I lems is Mrs. J-llizabcth Wardall who I with her husband, Alonzo Wardall, is a liberal thinker. Today she tiis'-tissfvl the question of I the wholesale desertion of wives by their husbands and said: j -With M rs. Green and others who j have express,,! th.-mselves I have no I ootibt that the cause of very many of tn desertions and separations in mar ried life are th- direct result of a mis I mated marriage, people do not st-n to marry with a corrt-ct idea of the re sponsibilities attendant upon married life. "I doubt not, however, that povertv has a. great effect noon all conditions of lite and tins as well as oth- s. "It is largely a matter of education. People must be educated in these as well as other matters. When peonle become SU the let 1 V d, Veloped thev will exercise th- wisdom that must be exer cised if vv- are to insure happv mar riages. Put until that time- we must expect failures. We must wait. "If we are to have happv marriages. marriiiL-es that will riot be dissolved bv any party or any condition, humanit'v must advance and marriage must be brought to a high, r plan-. "It is a fact to be r.-gr, tte-d. butt it is a fact still that under the present code marriage is a lottery. It lias been said ebfoie but it is true. And it is all be cause t.h.-re Is not enr.i-gh of sober in-f-llic-nt thought Riven to it. Marriage is s.mply the outcome of an affection that is thought by the persons feeling it to be iove and custom lias taug:t thean that the proper thing- to do under pf-ssure of this affection is to tnarrv. Th.-y marry and the only thought th-'v b.ave is for the affection thev feel until storn-r exi8-m-i.-s arise- that dull the af.-i-tion ami open their eyes. "I agree witii Dr. blames that the only thing to d, is to educate. I:eg-n with tie- children that th.-y may go into manhood and woma n iioeal with their ey, s open and avoid the pitfalls that widen in ihe path of the over-affectie-n-ate and tie- u 11 er-sen-able. "hi!. Iron skouM L taught on this finest i.-n. The time will come wle-n it wiil be a most important part of the e-d-ueation of a child as r-aeiing and wriiiag are today. M-ri and woni-n grow up today o-rfectly ignoiant of the functions of their being. "People marry too young or too ig norant. It is true. I believe, that peo ple do not marry as young ne w as tie. -v used to a half or even a quarter e.f a century ago but they may marry just as h-rnorant. Pamoate in this. I say." Mr. Wardall also bad'a few ideas on the subject. "At best there are two grat causes of the desertion of women by the hus bands." lie saiel. "In the hrst place no man should be permit.-.! to marry u:i b ss lie is at least 2.1 and no woman un less she is at least 21 years of as;-. And again no man should" be pe rmii ted to marry unless he- has a home tiiat he cannot be turned out of and an ineom sufficient to support family. 1 f. safe in saving that very few men wouhl 1,-ave rleir families jf they had a com fortable home in which tf live with them. i "There is a municipal wav to eafere this. They are ele.ing it in Pur.-i.e. Some municipalities in Purope compel I men to live in homes of their own and then put them in such a condition that they cannot only not be taken awav but that it is absolutely impossible for the man or his family to dispose of tha' h- -me. j "Tiie muni-tpality can help all men j to do this. Kit her they can build the home fe-r him and let him ay for it on the plan e.f the building and loan asso- ciations or they can build torn a mn-h I better home than the average man has than his hovel now costs him. "This plan has be-en tried in Liver- pool aneJ with great success. There s.-me years age the municipality took a lower part of the city that was inbab-ite-el by beeggars In cellars and hovels and tearing out the unhealthy districts built it up again with an immense apartment building, really a palace and house the same people there at less ex pense than they had been used to in their former miserable quarters. "And tiie city is making money out of it. It is estimated that this immense building which cost the city half a mil lion dollars will be ail paid for in 27, years anel will thereafter be practical ly rent free. No man there need be so poor that he must bt without a home anil he cannot make poverty an excuse for leaving his family. "Topeka and other American cities could do this thing with as much suc cess but the trouble is that we are nut ret up to it. "In a word," concluded Mr. Wardall. "all that ails the ieople of today and stands between them and happiness ia marriage and all other things is ignor ance." ONE MOKE WAXUEUEH. A Helpless Woman and Child With a Curious Story. A woman with a 2-year-old child was put off the eastbouriel pessonger here Wednesday morning because she hail no money to pay her fare, and her ticket expired at this point. She went to the Kussell House, where she told a pitiful tale. She said she had been without food for forty-eight hours, and was served with a meal by Panlord Patterson. The length of time she re mained at the table substantiated her story. She claimed that her husband deserted her in Oklahoma. The v were burned out there, she said, and when the house took lire she- jumped frcun a second story window with her child, injuring the chil i's spine permanently and crippling herself temp irarily. After the tire her husband sold the land, poe-keti-fl the proceeds and deserted lie-r. She then went to New Mexico to see if the curative po. ers of certain springs would not restore lu-r health and that of her child. After awhile she became penniless and started out to reaedi Topeka, where she says her father's relatives live, and has been de pending on the charity of the towns en route. She gave the name of Mrs. Rinehart. and looks as if Mexican blood coursed through her veins quite freely. Her age is apparently between I th and. ;;et years. On Friday morning trustee Pester paid her fare as far as Kllswort h. 1 lussell Journal. A woman thoroughly answering this description reached Topeka yesterday and was sent to Kansas City by Poor Commissioner Hale and Police Matron Thorpe. Here the woman said her child had been hurt by a fall, that her name was Ivyi Penton. that her rela tives lived in Missouri, that her hus band left there, to go to the Cherokee Strip two years ago. and that as she had not heard from him she believed him dead, anel that she had gone to California to find her parents and that they had disowned her. She was on her way back to Missouri, she said, from California to her eastern rela tives, anel had only when she reach ed Topeka. Mrs. Thorpe thought she was a half-breed Indian. It is possible someoody has been worked. SUNDAY AT Til E CIIIIUTIES Salvation Army, Captain and Mrs. Hawk in charge. Hall, corner Past Fourth and Monroe1 streets.

Tn response to inquiries as to what will be done in the case of Cuba at this session of congress the Journal has replies from many sen ators. Senator Peffer replied as fol lows I have no information, but I pnsume the president favors keeping affairs in statu quo. No doubt the administration would avail itself of any sort of oppor tunity to resent undue Spanish aggres sions.
