SUBSCRIBE For Me if you admire my Grit. By F. L. JELTZ. There is a lovely land not far away, Where bums infest the strand Night and day, On now those stinkers yell when they hear the dinner bell; But to quit it would be hill Dark, dark than day. For the benefit of those who read, EDITOR. Hew away let the chips fall all along the line. When you see it in our paper just say it is so. W. H. Klausmire, the Jackson county farmer is on trial for his life at Oskaloosa. In justice to ourselves we believe in a little more money and less blocade of business. There are some very silly people in this world. There are some who deem it necessary to be fools. With this weeks issue we make our paper seven columns and we will try and merit your favor in the future as in the past. There are moments when a man don't care to talk. Tell a man you don't care to talk and you will find an enemy over there. The police courts seem to continue to grind along with a few drunks who must let the prison officials know they must be Topeka anyhow. It has been claimed that all sensible men more or less drink whiskey; if that be true it would be hard indeed for a man not to follow the example of his fathers. We have arranged to get every thing in shape to get the paper to you as agreed. However in the past we admit we have been some what behind. "If you think it best for the safety of our lives please tell that boy who is popping that 22 out there to quit." Porter S. Cook, Sheriff Shawnee Co. 'All right you are in command.' Chief Stahl. There seems to be a lengthy story going the rounds in eastern paper about Miss Lendra Seitz of McPherson, her name is not Hattie, neither does she live in Topeka. There is no doubt a good deal of truth in the rumor that duunks don't boot leg, for heaven's sake think of nobles selling booze they like it to well themselves, The STATE LEDGER is the oldest and biggest Negro journal in Kan. by many odds. Oh excuse us we didn't mean that, for instance the PLAINDEALER is just the stuff. Now of course one will make mistakes and that is ours. We will come second anyhow. James R. Woods of Weatherford Oaklahoma, is not dead. The writer could have got a $50 bet last week from a farmer out west that he was dead but we did not have the $50 Sutherland and Mullins the pair of convicts that made Sheriff Cook and the Workchesters captives in their house near Pauline ast Sunday was captured at Bazar, Chase county Kansas and gone to their "home." Thompson the big colored man who is supposed to have let all the other convicts out of prison was caught at Council Grove. In fact Thompson might have known Council Grove was a place of bad luck. A threshing machine created quite a stir passing through the west of town the other morning' God's Historical Society State House The State Ledger. DO RIGHT--KNOW THAT YOU ARE RIGHT; FEAR NOMAN; BUT RENDER JUSTICE TO ALL. There are a pair of joshers in the State House just as you enter second floor, their business is that of a "New man" now a days called mentioner, their business also is to excite and invite attention because they are newspapermen, most people fly shy of this gang because he is caught as from a camera all the same. They have a sign on the preface of the big door thusly: "Hot Air" commissioner, They are funny fellows but we do not know their names. We understand that there will be n move on foot to have Justice Disney of Oakland reply to our last issue. We have nothing personal against Judge Disney and if he had come to us in advance of our last issue and disputed the statement we would have been compelled to have done it for him. A rumor as we understand is public property and can only be published as a rumor. Hence that is the situation. DEATH OF J. FREEMAN John E. Freeman, formerly of this city who for many years in the employ of the Santa Fe was killed on the Frisco Line in a collision last week. He was a cook for private rail-road officials. Mr. Freeman at the time of his death lived in Chicago where he has quite a family. Miss Hattie, Mrs. Jno Norman and a brother Eligah are the only children left to their aged parents. His many friends who remember the family as the writer regret the sad news. The Freemans are among the wealthiest colored families of this state, having came here as among its first settlers from the Dominion of Canada. The fact of the Freemans owning large property interest and have plenty of money, however, John Freeman Sr seems to have made it from the start as a shoemaker. They have the sympathy of this community: The title of executiener in New York has passed. It is the electrician in Auburn prison. Czelgosz slept more soundly than those who were to see him electrocuted. There is no fear in faith. Being depends on believing. Candor is not always truth. Doing his will will lead to delight in it. The true warrior does not wait to be an officer before he will fight. The best treasures of life are found in the rather than as nuggets god will take the will for the deed at times but never the deed for the will. You can afford to discount popular opinion when you have God's precious promises.-Ex: CO. SUPT. THOMAS OF PHILIPPS COUNTY Coming Young Man ForState Honors. PETER H. HON, JOHN THOMAS, Few young men in Kansas have achieved as much respect and honor as the subject of this sketch, the affable young and brilliant county superintendent of Phillips county. Mr. Thomas was educated at the Nickerson and Emporia Normal School. Having been born and reared in Phillips county makes him quite a favorite among the good people of that locality. Mr. Thomas is a pleasant young man to meet, and in a recent interview with many of the teachers of his county the unanimous verdict was that he is capable for the position he holds. The North-West Teachers Association meets in his city November 28th and 29th, and Mr. Thomas will by common consent be president of the assembly. He is 30 years of age and has lived in Phillips county; he is serving his second term as county superintendent of schools and bids fair to hold state honors if signs of the times point directly. COUNCILMAN Who Will Stand For Re-election Because He Has Done His Duty We made a short trip to Kansas City, Kansas the other day and took in a few sights of the busy city, and then we made a careful investigation among the voters and many of the city officers. We was informed that in the spring there would be a councilman to be elected in the second ward, but as Mr, George Grubel, Jr, has had only one term it is necessary to say that he will be a candidate for re election from the second ward. Mr. Grubel is well known to every voter in the second ward at Kansas City and has on many occasions did them great favor. Whenever he has had employment to let he has always employed the laboring man of the colored race and he has many of them today working in his large soda water factory and on the new department of his new building, Mr. Grubel is the colored man's friend as also his father and he has always considered them in every way possible. The many friends of Mr. Grubel may remember he wants to be re-elected when the time comes and would be best for them to cast their votes for him.

MUSBANDS PORTRATED BY WOMEN. According to Women's Novels Only Good Husbands are Dead Husbands. Judging from the women's novels of the present day, the only good husband is a dead husband. I take up one of these books and find the story of a young governess who after her marriage with a Cuban relative of her employer, discovers that she has a jealous husband. Under the many indignities heaped upon her, the injured wife at length revolts. She then learns to love another man, who returns her affection. But the lovers agree to try to forget each other, and one succeeds. I open another. This also is the story of mismated people—a somber picture of the misery following the union of two temperaments so wholly unsympathetic that there is no possibility of mutual comprehension. But why look further? I turn from these books with a groan. The day has suddenly darkened before me. I feel old and sad, and the world seems a dreary waste of woe and wickedness For the time I have been breathing in the tainted air of a room where a nightlamp is burning and the atmosphere is heavy with the odor of disinfectants. Yet outside my window the young May sun is shining as it has done for 5- 000 springs and I hear a robin chirping the same blithe song that stirred the primeval forests. A great wave of discontent, like a mighty ogre, has flooded the minds of a large class of women in all civilized countries, sweeping away former traditions. Even the German woman, who to most intellects typifies the mere housewife, is revolting under the tyranny of the kitchen pots and refuses to be confronted with her knitting. In an age which sees more women writing than ever before in the history of the world it is natural that this unrest should find its expression in many of their books. In the minds of the disaffected portion of the sex arise these questions: Why are these women discontented? What is it they protest against? What do they really want? Is it true, as one of their critics asserts, that they mistake curiosity about morbid social conditions for a desire for social reforms? But, at least, the novelist might teach the ues of a sorrowful marriage. She might teach that to bear is to conquer our fate. She might teach us that though happiness has not fallen to her heroine's lot, or ours, in this age of philanthropy and intellectual activity, there is plenty of occupation for heart and head and hand. And we will rise up and call her blessed if in future novels she will admonish the family skeletons to rattle their bones as faintly as possible, in case they cannot be absolutely silent. Let her preach to us the gospel of hope, hope for despair itself, as Dickens preached it. And may we yet meet a few good husbands in our pages, for if the husband in woman's fiction continues to go from bad to worse as rapidly as he has been doing of late years, he bids fair to soon occupy the place once held by the eighteenth century villain.—Nina R. Allen, in Modern Culture. Imperor and Barber. Emperor William of Germany has taught his barber a lesson. Very punctual himself, the emperor insists that his servants shall also be punctual, and as he noticed some time ago that his barber was almost always a few minutes late when the time came for shaving him, he presented him with a gold chronometer and urged him to make good use of it. Much to his surprise, the barber continued to be a few minutes late almost every morning, and, after waiting in vain for some signs of improvement, the emperor said to him the other day: "Have you still the chronometer which I gave you?" "Yes, your majesty; here it is," replied the barber, taking it from his pocket. "Give it to me," said the emperor. "It is evidently of no use to you and you can have this one instead." With these words he placed the handsome gold chronometer on his dressing-table and handed to the amazed barber a nickel-plated watch worth about a dollar.—New York Herald. Among the peasants of Turkey almost all the doctoring is still done by women. In Constantinople there are laws against these healers, but they flourish, of romance languages in Western Reserve University, and Professor Ladd, of Yale, will become the first incumbent of the Dr. Leonard Hanna chair in the medical school of Cleveland University. Prof. George F. Moore has resigned from the faculty of the Andover Theological Seminary. According to report he has accepted a chair at Harvard. He has been connected with the seminary for twenty years, and for the last three years has been president of the faculty Bjornstjerne Bjornson, the Norwegian poet, is idolized by all Norwegians, while Ibsen may rather be said only to be admired. The two men are opposites in personality, habits and tastes, and, indeed, have only one thing in common the unfriendliness with which they are regarded in Sweden. COPE & CO.

VOL. 9, NO39 BLOODLESS AROOSTOOK WAR. Innocent Cause of It Has Just Died in Massachusetts. John Johnson Emery, formerly a Maine farmer, politician, explorer and lemberman, and who became noted for bringing about the dispute between this country and England, which ended in the bloodless Aroostook war, died of old age at his home, 26 Bower street, Boxbury. He was born in Fairfield, Maine, on August 28, 1806. His father was Samuel Emery, the first white child born in the town. The mother's maiden name was Diadema Johnson, and John J. was one of the fifteen children of the family. As manhood came he grew into a life of local activity, and located most of the roads now existing in Fairfield and many of those in surrounding towns. He was a selectman for nine years, was county surveyor for a long time, and represented the town in the legislature of Maine. He was also an extensive farmer, and carried on a lumber business of considerable magnitude. During Mr. Emery's days as a lumberman, he and a companion made many explorations of the Maine woods. They made a chart of the ground that they covered, and published several pamphlets describing these localities, which were then little known to the hunters and the public. In 1839 Mr. Emery was the innocent cause of a war, which is now known in history as the Aroostook war, and for a time came near being serious in many respects. It came about over a boundary dispute with Canada; neither this country nor the province of the queen could decide on the proper location of the line, and it was always coming up as a bone of contention. In 1839 he was sent there to look over the ground and make a report on it, and was to take along a surveyor with him, and determine about where the line lay. He went into the woods, and while carrying out his mission was captured by British soldiers and taken as a prisoner to Canada. When the people of Maine heard of it there was great excitement, and immediately talk of war. The state troops were ordered out under the direction of the president, and they were armed and sent to the boundary to secure his release. The Canadian government released him before they came, but at the same time they assembled several regiments of troops to meet the Maine boys. Upon his return to the lines he was placed in command of his own company of troops and remained in camp with them for more than a month. President Van Buren sent General Winfield Scott to take command, and he remained until the trouble was over. It was finally settled by Daniel Webster, who conferred with the British authorities and fixed the line—Boston Globe. Change For a Quarter. "How much does it take to change a quarter?" asked the bartender. "Twenty-five cents, ch? Not on your life. It takes 70 cents to do the trick. How many ways do you suppose a quarter-dollar can be changed? Just exactly eleven. A fellow of limited means may like the jingle of coin in his clothes. In that event you can give him 25 pennies or 20 pennies and one nickel, supposing he wants to get a beer. He may like to have a little sprinkling of silver in his clothes, and you can accommodate with fifteen pennies and a dime, or ten pennies, a dime and a nickel. If he prefers to have change handy for a beer and a car fare, why fifteen pennies and two nickels will fix him up, and if he wants a cigar in addition, besides having a little stock of cash in his jeans, give him ten pennies and three nickels. That makes six ways. Now then, a fellow with a quarter can trade it off for five pennies and four nickels, two dimes and one nickel, one dime and three nickels or five nickels, just as he prefers. And to accommodate him in any way that he might select, you have to possess twenty-five pennies, two dimes and five nickels—70 cents in all."—New York Times. Gravel with a History. On the occasion of the recent meeting of the American Association of Passenger and Ticket Agents, in Asheville, N. C., H. C. Townsend, president, was given an oak gavel, to which is attached an interesting history. The wood once formed a part of Nelson's flagship, "Foudroyant," and is a relic of a name and career well known to the American and British nations. The "Foudroyant" was captured from the French in 1558, being at that time one of the largest battleships afloat. Later she carried Nelson's flag in the Mediterranean and was finally broken up by a gale at Blackpool, November 28, 1897. An American $5 gold piece of 1800 and a George III, guinea are inlaid in the gavel. Thomas Cook & Son of New York were the donors. Mrs. Stanford has returned to San Francisco after a journey to Egypt, where she purchased for the Stanford Museum a remarkable private collection of Egyptian antiquities, treasured and supplemented during thirty-five years by a wealthy foreign resident of Cairo.
