THE AMERICAN CITIZEN.
Mr Alex Cunning ex clerk of the Disc court, we have been informed is a candidate for the office of sheriff of this county, Mr. Gunning has made a record as an official which places him in the situation of the people second most, as a gentleman and a officer, he has been urgently requested to make the case for sheriff by his many friends, they believing that in nominating and electing that this county would have a she, if the people could look upon with such pride. The time has and now is when taxpayers and citizens should every effort to place good and compartment in those important and applicable positions, those who have required and urged upon Mr. Gunning to take the race have certainly made no mistake, for he is in every particular roughly qualified.

The employment of women in the running of elevators is making some headway in certian cities. But it ought not to gain a foot hold generally. It is not a sort of occupation in which one sex should come in competition with the other, at least in this country. In varieous parts of the Old World female drudges are yoked on farms with the beasts of the field. America would regard such a degradation of womanhood with unbounded scora and loathing; and in the guidance of elevators women are out of place.

A Royal Scientist.
The Prince of Monaco, who was prevented by a motor cycle accident from delivering his lecture at the Royal Institution of London, is perhaps the first of living oceanographers. When the British Association last met in Edinburgh the royal scientist drew large audiences to hear his accounts of his experiments upon the routes followed by the waters of oceans themselves, as distinguished from the voyagers upon them. The gambler at Monte Carlo would thus seem to serve science.
Priest to Study at Yale.
Rev. Francis D. McShane, one of the Dominican fathers connected with the St. Mary's church in New Haven, has just completed arrangements with the officials of Yale university by which he is to become a member of the senior academy class for 1904. He will begin his studies with the seniors next fall for the degree of bachelor of arts. This is the first instance of a Catholic priest with a parish appointment entering Yale for a degree or for study of any kind.
V. S. Gilbert's Correction.
W. S. Gilbert, formerly of Gilbert and Sullivan comic opera fame, wrote as follows to a London newspaper recently: "There is a line in your issue of May 15 that must have sent a thrill of joy through many a worthy home. I refer to the line in an article headed 'A Naval Battle,' in which I am referred to as the 'late W. S. Gilbert.' I am always sorry to spoil sport, but common cander compels me to admit (reluctantly) that I am still alive."
Shadow of the Poorhouse.
J. Pierpoint Morgan says he has no personal property to pay taxes on, as his debts exceed his assets. This is sad. We had always supposed that Mr. Morgan was comfortably fixed by this time.

All races of mankind are beginning to value a man for what he is in himself and not for what his family may be or may have been. And that is the only way that true merit can be recognized With some John is only John in spite of all his accomplishments. The Negro is getting some very helpful object lessons from other races and here is one he stands very greatly in need of.
It looks very much like that in the future the Negro in the South must set the fast growing Negro problem in the north.

AN ABSENT MINDED ARTIST.
Remarkable Act of Aberration Credited to Edward L. Henry.
Edward L. Henry, the Academician, is considerably over sixty years old, but his youthful smooth face, aside from his gray hair, has deceived many persons. He is an inverteate joker, and also exceedingly absent minded. This is an actual experience he had at the Century club not long ago. It was a reception, and Mr. Henry was very busy talking to a fellow artist, when something irritated his ankle. He stooped down, lifted the edge of the bottom of one of the other man's trouser legs, calmly scratched the other man's ankle just above the patent leather tie, and replacing the garment, went on talking, wholly oblivious of his action and apparently perfectly satisfied.
Time of Stopping a Train.
At a recent convention of airbrake men an interesting report was presented showing how the distance required for the stopping of trains had been reduced by the new high-speed brake. A train running eighty miles an hour was stopped in 2,240 feet by the high-speed brake at 110 pounds, where ordinary pressure of seventy pounds took exactly half a mile to bring it to a stand. Other train speeds and reductions in stopping distances were these: Fifty miles an hour, from 840 to 700 feet; fifty-five miles, 1,030 feet; sixty-five miles, 1,635 to 1,300 feet; seventy miles, 2,010 to 1,530 feet; seventy-five miles, 2,295 to 1,840 feet.

About twenty-five years ago government angieers decided to pave Pennsylvania aviaries in Washington with asphalt. That was the beginning of the general use of the scientific mystery for street pavements. To-day over 830,000,000 square feet of street pavements in the United States and Canada are covered with asphalt. This asphalt pavement would make a bottle and twenty-six feet wide over 1,750 miles long and would reach from New York to New Orleans, and then have several miles for side streets.

Grave Opened by Tree.
Grave Opened by Tree.
In the Gartenkirchhof, Hanover, is a grave covered by a mighty stone, on which an inscription appears to the effect that the grave should never be opened by human hands. The seed of a birch fell through a crack in the house, and, developing to a large tree, opened the grave in its upward growth. The tree has now withered and decayed. When it is removed the grave will again be closed.

A Boy's victo. v.
Crossroads, Tenn., Sept. 14th - Orra Young, the ten-year-old son of Leslie Young of this place, is a bright boy, and one who is very well liked by all who know him.
For some years Orbra has suffered a great deal with a form of Kidney Trouble which was very annoying, and which made him miserable all the time. He had to get up three or four times every night, almost all his life. His father heard of a remedy called Dodd's kidney Pills, and bought some for the little fellow with the result that he is now completely cured of the old trouble. He says:
"Dodd's Kidney Pills soon gave me great relief, and now I can sleep all night without having to get up. We will always praise Dodd's Kidney Pills."
There are many children suffering from Kidney and Urinary troubles. These disorders should be promptly corrected. Dodd's Kidney Pills is a safe and sure remedy for all such dearrangements. Master Orbra Young conquered his troubles and made a well boy of himself by using Dodd's Kidney Pills, and every one may do the same by the same means. Parents should see to it that their children are given a fair chance in life and there is nothing that can undermine the health of a growing child as much as Kidney and Urinary arrangements.

Taxation and legislative extravagance will not be "issues" in Kansas next year—in the same sense that booole will not be an issue over in Missouri.
The determination of the Populist conference to avoid fusion in the future is made easier to enforce by the fact that nobody is trying to fuse with them.
The decision of the Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor to enter politics in Topeka is a token that the Epworth league and the Y. M. C. A. are no longer to have things all their own way.

According to the board of agriculture's census, Kansas has 102,955 dogs. Ellis county leads, with 4,676; Wyandotte county has only two. Evidently prairie dogs were not included in the count.
Attorney General Coleman holds that notaries public have no authority in law to perform the marriage service, but that a knot tied by them is valid and binding. This appears to be all the "contracting parties" could ask, and it satisfactory to the notary.

Gomer Davies finds himself hand-capped in the task of preparing a suitable reply to Morton Albaugh by the fact that there are only 350,000 words in the English language.
Both Topeka and Hutchinson are holding "state fairs," this week, but the weather is so "crimpy" that the management think they made a mistake in not advertising a winter circus instead.
The Wlchita Eagle tells of an observing man who watched the prairie dogs frolic. He noticed that one of the dogs had coal dust on its tail, which gave the observing man an idea. He dug a hole and found coal in paying quantities.
Bent Murdock thinks Kansas should quit jeering at Arkansas until this wrong is corrected: Women school teachers in Kansas receive an average of $2 a month less than women teachers in Arkansas. But, of course, teachers are needed much more in Arkansas than in Kansas.
Rush county makes the claim that it raised more wheat in proportion to its population than any county in the state. It raised nearly 4 million bushels, and the county has 6,500 nhabitants. The "per capiter" is 615 bushels.

New York Milk Regulations.
In order to secure certification of his milk by the milk commission of New York city, the dairyman must have a clean cement floor stable, with whitewashed walls and abundant windows. Cows must be sponged and their tails scrubbed before each milking. White suits must be worn by attendants, bottles and utensils scaled and filled bottles kept on ice and shipped only in refrigerator cars.

Chicago Boomers.
Don't tell a Chicago man that his city has less than three million population unless you are prepared to fight. Boomers of the Lake City have reorganized their Two Million Club, rechristened it the Three Million Club, donned their aggressive club buttons and promised allegiance to the club constitution, which provides that each member must claim at all times that Chicago has at least three million people.
A Real "Empire Builder."
The story that a Rochester father of three children has eloped with the wife of a neighbor who has seventeen children, taking the whole twenty with them, seems incredible. Some people have thought that there is a relation between the growing frequency of divorce and the prevalence of "race suicide." But this report does not tend to support the theory.
Saved by a Quick Mail.
People generally do not appreciate the advantage of prompt mail delivery. In New York the other day a man wrote a letter to his brother saying, "When you get this I will be dead." The brother got the letter in time to reach the home of the intended suicide before the gas which he had turned on had time to do its deadly work. The letter carriers may save more lives than the doctors.

On Sept. 2, M. K. & T.

The line opens up a magnificent agricultural country of surprising possibilities—a country bound to be the homeseekers' Mecca for several years. By October 1st the line will be completed through to Bartlesville, Indian Territory, giving the M. K. & T. Ry a direct line between Oklahoma City and Kansas City, St. Louis and all important points north and east.
You can't always tell by how ripe a woman's lips are how much a man would like to see if any of it will come off.
To the housewife who has not yet become acquainted with the new things of everyday use in the market and who is reasonably satisfied with the old, we would suggest that a trial of Defiance Cold Water Starch be made at once. Not alone because it is guaranteed by the manufacturers to be superior to any other brand, but because each 10c package contains 16 ozs., while all the other kinds contain but 12 ozs. It is safe to say that the lady who once uses Defiance Starch will use no other. Quality and quantity must win.
Married people should take some consolation from the fact that they might have done worse.

President Dicz.
Outside of Mexico there is a general impression that because President Diaz is now seventy-three years old he must be failing and that at best he can last but a little time longer. "On the contrary," says a man who has just returned from a business trip to the sister republic, "half a minute's talk with the general will dispel any such motion. He is of Oaxaca Indian blood, a tribe noted for longevity and physical prowess."
Strenuous Times In Prospect.
Otto Fallmetzger, a schoolmaster of Schwerin, Germany, was run down the other day by a motor car. He was badly bruised, but was well enough to beat the driver into insensibility. Next he seized an axe and smashed the car. The driver is now suing for damages for assault, the owner of the motor car is suing him for damages and the schoolmaster counterclaims for the loss of a suit of clothes.
About Telegraph Poles
If the trees to replace the telegraph and telephone poles now in use were growing and forty could be obtained from each acre, it would require 370,000 acres to supply the poles for one renewal. Where the seed only just sown and started into growth, it would be A. D. 2050 before the trees would be of sufficient size to use for first-class telegraph poles.
Tax Extraordinary
A tax on marriage is still imposed by the proprietor of a leading Bombay hotel. In a revised tariff of prices the daily charge for a single lady or gentleman is set down as five rupees, but if the lady or gentleman be married the charge will be seven rupees each. No explanation of this singular regulation is given.
Steam Rooms at Seashore.
Seashore bathing establishments that have added steam rooms to their equipment have found that the outlay has been more than repaid by the increased patronage. In the places that have installed steam rooms all the comforts of a Turkish bath are added to the surf bathing.

THEY WILL NOT GIVE HER ANY HELP
Bulgaria Will Not Wait Much Longer,
However—if Quarages In Mace-
donia Do Not Cease, Bulgaria Will
Undertake to Stop Them—Servia
Je Invited to Take a Hand,
‘SOFIA.—(Special.) Although no for-
‘mal replies have been received to the
Bulgarian government's note, it Is
stated that the representatives of
three great powers have repeated
their counsels to Bulgaria to remain
quiet, as in the event of war with
Turkey, Bulgaria need not expect any
help in foreign quarters. It is further
Teported that the same diplomatists
visited General Petroff and endeavored
to persuade him to postpone the
mobilization of Bulgarian forces, but
the premier deciined.
One of the ministerial organs, in
an editorial on the government's note,
says it hopes it will be the last time
that the Bulgarian government will
issue a note. If the powers do not
intervene to restore order in Mace-
donia, Bulgaria will undertaake with
the feeble forces she possesses to do
what is expected of her and give Eu-
rope the pleasure of witnessing a
bloody drama in Macedonia.
LONDON.—(Special.) The efforts of
the powers, according to the latest
telegrams are directed both at Con-
stantinople and Sofia toward an en-
deavor to avert war. It is stated that
all the ambassadors at Constantinople
have drawn the porte’s attention to
the danger of permitting a continua-
tion of the excesses in Macedonia by
the Turkish troops and irregulars.
‘The Daily Chronicle says it under-
stands that Great Britain has decided
on a still stronger step in the dispatch
of'a British squadron in support of her
diplomatic endeavors at Constantinople
to put an end to the massacres. It is
impossible, however, to confirm or
deny the Daily Chronicle's statement.
Most of the special correspondents
in the near East consider war inevit-
able, but think {t may yet be delayed,
neither the Bulgarians nor the Turks
being really prepared for it. The for-
mer are not sufficiently armed, while
Turkey does not feel safe until her
lines of communication are less at the
merey of Bulgarian insurgent bands.
A Vienna paper asserts that Prince
Ferdinand of Bulgaria has sent a
trusted agent to King Peter inviting
Servian co-operation against Turkey.
‘The correspondent of the Daily Tel-
egraph at Sofia says Bulgaria's reply
to the porte’s protest against the con-
‘tinual crossing of the frontier by bands
and the smuggling of arms and am-
munition from Bulgaria was couched
in most uncompromising language,
leaving no prospect whatever of’ an
amicable arrangement.
A dispatch to the Daily Mail from
Sofia says Prince Ferdinand will
grant an audience to Jonn B. Jack-
son, the United States agent at Sofia.
‘The Sofia correspondent of the
‘Times says the decision of the Bulgar-
fan government to practically mobilize
the army is universally approved. It
is urged that the troops will be ex-
clusively designed to close the fron-
tler against the passage of insurgent
bands and that the step was resorted
to in obedience to the dictates of the
great powers. The decision therefore
should not offend Turkey's suscepti-
Dilities. It is estimated that 8,000
raiders are preparing to start into
‘Macedonia or already assembled at the
the frontier districts of Kostendil and
Dubnitza.

MUTINY DURING StoRM.
Steamship Stokers Forced to Work at
Point of Revolver.
NORFOLK, VA.—(Special.) _ The
Old Dominion liner Princess Anne,
Captain Tapley, from New York for
Norfolk, with a passenger list of 100,
steamed slowly into harbor Wednes-
day night with her cargo badly listed,
ten hours behind time. The Princess
Anne left New York without the
slightest intimation of the fierce wind
blowing up the coast to meet her.
Consequently, when at 1 o'clock
Wednesday morning, off Fenwick isi-
and, the full strength of the gale
struck the ship, the captain and crew
were taken completely unawares.
‘The shock of the first sea awakened
all the passengers, who rushed half-
clothed, weeping, praying and scream-
ing from their staterooms in an effort
to reach the decks and boats. Every
door and window was closely fastened,
the hatches battened and orders is-
sued that no one save the crew be
allowed upon the decks, already waist
deep in water.
According to the report of passen-
gers the force of stokers refused to
work. Captain Tapley drew a re
volver and pointing it at the crowd,
ordered them back to work. They
obeyed. At the time of the mutiny the
ship was in only sixteen fathoms of
water and drifting nearer shore. The
report of the mutiny cannot be con-
firmed from the ship's officers, Six-
teen passengers, it is said, were more
or less seriously injured.
‘The steamer Guyandotte of the Old
Dominion line, which left New York
three hours after the Princess Anne,
had not been reported from Cape
Henry at midnight Wednesday.

HE CHIEF OF POLICE AND
TWO OTHERS AT EVANSVILLE.
FINISHED IT UP WITH KILLING HIMSELF
Shooting Occurred In a Tent at the
Fair Grounds—Old Feud Thought
to Have Been at the Bottom of the
Tragedy—Victims Fired Upon Ab-
solutely Without Warning.
EVANSVILLE, IND.—(Special.) Af-
ter shooting and probably fatally
wounding Chief of Police Fred Heucke
and Captain Brennecke, of the police
department, and seriously injuring
‘Frank Lutz, a councilman of Boonville,
‘Ind., Detective Thomas Hutchens shot
and killed himself in this city Friday
‘night. The tragedy was the result of
‘a long existing quarrel between Bren-
nnecke and Hutchens. ‘The cause is not
‘known. The shooting occurred in a
tent at the Tri-State fair grounds in
the presence of at least 100 people.
Neither Chief Heucke nor Captain
Brennecke had opportunity to defend
themselves.
Five minutes before the shooting,
Detective Hutchens, in conversation
with Patrolman Crow and Fireman
Heberer, made the remark, with an
oath, that there were two men he in-
tended to “get even with.” Patrol-
man Crow was sitting at a table near
the entrance of the German village
with Hutchens when Chie Heucke
and Captain Brennecke entered, Crow
jumped to his feet and started for the
detective as soon as the first shot was
fired. He did not reach him, how-
ever, until both the chief and the cap-
tain had been struck. Hutchens then
threw the revolver over his shoulder
and fired the shot that struck Lutz.
Whether he intended the shot for
Heucke or Patrolman Crow is not
known. Both men were in the line
of fire and it is probable he intended
to kill Crow for attempting to inter-
fere. After he had fired four shota,
Hutchens walked outside the tents,
saying, “No man will ever live to see
me tried,” and placing the revolver
to his right temple, sent his last bullet
into his brain,
‘The hundred or more people in the
tent had rushed from the place before
the last shot was fired. In the panic
they broke through the side walls or
took refuge behind the bar.
Six years ago Hutchens shot at Bren-
necke in a saloon, but the bullet lodged
in the ceiling. It is believed that the
conviction Friday afternoon of Will-

velt stepped out to the porch. Less
than one hundred feet away in a
buggy stood Henry Wellbrenner, a
young farmer of Syossett, L. I, with a
revolver aimed directly at the presi-
dent as he stood silhouetted by the
light trom his Ubrary. Within a trac-
tion of a second a bullet would have
been sped on its way had not the
maniac’s revolver been knocked from
his hands by a secret service agent.
jam Trimble, one of the men who
took part in the riots of July 5 and 6,
had something to do with hastening
the tragedy. Captain Brennecke has
been one of the most active workers
for the state, and it is said that his
activity against the rioters increased
‘Hutchens’ animosity.
Captain Brennecke is still uncon:
scious. Frank Lutz is believed to be
fatally hurt.

severely injured and another man

For Infirm Indian Women.
CHICKASHA, I. T.—(Special.) The
Chickasha citizens have forwarded a
petition to the tribal legislature now
in session, asking them to make pro-
vision for their old, infirm and desti-
tute Indian women.
‘They specified that Bloomfield seni-
inary, near Stonewall, I. T., with 640
acres of ground, be set aside as a
home for these women, where they
may be cared for in the future, There
is a large percentage of the Indian, wo-
men who, after they reach middle age,
are totally unable to care for them-
selves, The measure for their relief
will undoubtedly pass, as the petition
bears the signature of nearly every
Chickasha: citizen.

caped and climbed the fire escape to
the roof and began pelting the pass-
ing crowds. When they were chased
in an endeavor to capture them they
ran over adjoining roofs and entered
a private residence, where they
hurled a flower pot through a plate
glass window. Before they were cap-
tured they had broken several win-
dows @nd a skylight of the opera
house. Thousands of spectators en-
joyed the performance.
Platt May Win a Bride.
NEW YORK.—Spectal.) In advance
of Senator Platt’s return from the
White mountains comes a story that
the senator is about to be married.
The story came from two sources and

riage was noc far off, and that Mr.

fore he went to the White mountains.
If the story be true Senator Platt
is to marry a widow well known in
New York society and at Manhatten
Beach. At the present time she is
