Rattiesnakes I'm Kansas-A Great
Snake Hunt.

We met yesterday, Mr.. VIM. Bcedle, formerly a
resident of Kansas City, and well known to orr
older citizens a gentleman of the most ungrcs-
toned character, now u farmer. who lives some
seventeen miles south of this city, just west of
the Missouri State line, on the head waters of
Indian creek, and he states in substance the follow
ing story: During this summer great number
of cattle have been bitten by rattlesnakes, which
abound in great numbers i'm the rocks in that
neighborhoOd. Some few days since Mr.. Joseph
Ward, who is supervisor of roads in that town.
ship, ordered three men TO the bluff for stone to
fill bad places in the road. While InarYying rock
they killed twenty-five large yellow rattesnakes.
1t was then decided among the farmers i'll that
locality to have regular snake hunt, which was
gotten up and the preacher of that district head
ed the party, and the hunt commenced, each
man carrying double barreled shotgun. Upon
approaching the rocks, the leader of the party of
five a large four foot aud half spotted snake,
which he killed Mt the first shot. No sooner had
the sound of the shot died away than a hundred
heads raised in the grass around them, to-
gether with kissing and rattlng, which made
every mans hair stand on end. After this demon
stration on the part of the snakes, several were
killed before they reached the rocks. The quarry
ing process then brought to bear, and
hundred and fOrty-three snakes were killed, the
least in length measuring two feet and half, and
the largest four feet and half. There is another
place not far from this, where a great many have
been seen since the great massacre. 1t is said
these serpents are more bold than ever, and VEN
ture a mile more from their dens. A large par
ty is now being organized to make grand snake
hunt which will come off soon.-KaRsds City Jour-
nal, 26th.

Editorial Convention.

An editorial and publishers convention has
been called to assemble at Lawrence, on the 24th
of October next. Heretofoye these conventions
have met at Topeka, during the session of the
Legislature, and have been little practical worth
almost every member having some AK or little
hatchet, to sharpen the legislative grindstOne.
1t is to he hoped that the change means busi-
ness, and that the members will see what can be
done to advance the interests of the profession
and craft. 1t would not he bad idea for sug-
gestions to be thrown ont in advance for cOnsid-
Grafton. For our part We present the following
query:
W0uld it not he well to call national conven-
tiOn of publishers, to what can be done toward
securing greater uniformity in the sizes of type,
cases, etc. Type of the same nominal size from
different fountlres seldom justifies. Indeed, diff
ferent fonts from the same foundry often vary,
and different parts Of the same font-the leaders,
for instance-are often larger than the quads.
If national publishers association should
adopt standard, and appoint an inspector of mat
rixes to examine those in use, OF that shall here
after be made, with the understanding that its
influence is to be thrown against all foundres
that do not present their matrixes for examina-
tion, it would not be long before one great cause
of waste would be removed.
Cases likewise vary from one-sixtcenth to one
half an inch in length, requiring different racks,
and frequently leading to the pieing of an entire
font of type.
There are numerous other reforms-such as
trallsposing the caps and small caps, and putting
the in the present X box, (running thence to
the right and upwarl,) which wOnld put the cap
itals mostly used where they would he the most
quickly reached.
1t needs no argument to convince printers of
the advantage Of having type and cases uniform
in size The question is, how to secure it. Most
of the foundrics wonld object at first, but il the
publishers are determined they can carry their
point. The question is, Shall Kansas lead of in
some such practical measure at the coming con-
vention f-.ManhattdR Nationalist.

AFemale Odd Fellow.

An old man GO years of age, named Geo. Stats,
who was the janitOr of the Odd Fellows hall ut
indianapolis, and had charge of the private books
and work rs well as the keys, for some time past
has been under the domination of woman named
Pillbean who acquired fearful influence over him,
and prevailed upon him to let her witness three in
itiations in Odd Fellowship while she was con-
cealed from view. There is room adjoining the
main hall of the building, designed for the recep-
ton of an organ, pending which it was curtained
off, having been in this condition for some time.
Entrance to this room can only be obtained from
the outside, and thereto Mrs. Pillbean was admit
tedby the jantOr upon several different nights, and
witnessed three if not five limitations. She was
supplied with the private books and work of the
order, keys of the room, and one of the stools of
the encampment. These articles were taken from
her a day or two since by the chief of police. 1t
is said that the janitor instructed the woman in
three degrees of Masonry. She makes her boast
that she is an Odd Fellow and Free Mason, and
has given evidence that she knows more than she
ought to about Odd Fellowship.
Now for the reason for her seeking that which
heretofore has been q sealed book to woman.
For some time past, the janitor has paid Sl2 per
month for the rent of the wOman's house. She
wanted more money, and demanded 81 ,0O0 This
was refused, when she asked for $500 and m6rte-
gage on one Of the janitors houses This was also
refused, when she told what she had seen and
learned.
On Friday night the janitOr was tried before a
committee Of Odd Fellows and expelled from the
order. He was defended by Hon. Vim. Wallace.
He is now reported = Okeeping closely to his house.

"Brick Pomeroy has many friends in the DEM
| ocratic party, who believe in his sincerity and
/ honesty; and for this reason, also, he has many
enemies, chief among whom are the Tammany
| leaders POmeroy has this advantage over them,
| however, that he is in no way connected with
their robberies, and is too outspoken to withhold
| his conviction of their rascalities Here is what
| he saws of the Tammany thefts:
| If the head sachems of Tammany can manage
| to secure the nomination of their man " for the
Presidency, and then see him elected there will be
inangurated the grandest administration of theft,

| this country ever witnessed
| The ring of swindlers now holding treacherous
power in New York city, under the name of De-
| mocracy, are doing more to weaken the cause of
Democracy in the country at large than the entire
vote of the city can atone for
This is Tammany!
This is the so called Democratic authority gov
erning New York!
This is the devils combination of thieves now
ruling New York city, not for the good of the
many but for the enrichment of the few.
This is the monopoly of the corruptionists now
proposing to buy the nomination of the next DEM
ocratic candidate for the Presidency, that WASH
inrtop may be included-that some of the leading
| thieves of our New York officials may be trans
planted to newer fields, but under the same man.
| agement!
It is for the Democracy of the country to look
to ths-to send to the national convention of 1872
men who dare to he honest to taxpayers and to
principles or there will be such defeat and such
disruption and scattering of the Democracy as no
power on earth will ever rally.
Honest men will not always endorse corruption.
New York, the pig-pen of Tammany, may sub
init to what its people have not pluck enough to
help, but the Democracy of the country will not
submit to such dictation.
Look to New York!
One hundred and one million dollars in debt.
And what have the people to show for it
A steam yacht!
An American clubhouse!
race track!
Supreme Court owned by the Erie Railway,
with Hon. George Barnard for toll-keepcr!
palace for lying, slippery Dick Connolly, the
Comptroller, who went into Office so poor that he
could not qualify in 81 ,OOO-who is now million
aire!
A fortune of s1O,OO0,OO0 for Peter Bismarck

ed City Chamberlain!
A palace for Hon. William NJ. Tweed, the like

600 ont of the city by honesty and economy, in
ten years.
A fortune of 100000 for A. Oakley Hall, the
popinjay Mayor, who squawks when his masters
pull the strings, and pockets his per centage of
the plumber, while angling for the nomination for
Governor.
Six thousand harlots and 800 dens Of infamy

THE PRESIDENT AND THE NEW YORK RIOT.-
The New York correspondent of Cincinnati pa
per says:
II is reported that when General Grant heard
vest. r,lay that mob law was anticipated here, and
that the rights Of citizens to be suppressed,
he tclegraphed to General Mcdowell, the COM
mander of this department, to preserve order by
taking command of the State militia at his option,
and to inform Governor Hoffman of his purpose.
When Mcdowell telegraphed these instructions
to Hoffman, at Albany, the latter got thoroughly
alarmed, rushed to the city, issnet1 his proclama-
ticn, and himself gave orders for calling ont the
militia and the preservation Of order. 1t is said
that President Grant took this action under au-
thority conferred upon him by the KIN Klux bill.
Whether this report he in all respects correct,
an, not yet positive: but there is no doubt that
General Mcdowell received special instructions
for his conduct in certain emergencies. If the
port be true the Presidents action would receive
the support of a large majority of the people.
The same correspondent also states that it was
not until after this action by the President was
made known. that Governor Hoffman counter
manded the Kelso order. II is now well known
that Governor Hoffman was in New York on Mon
day previous to the riot, and knew of the danger
and of Kelsos order. 1t is pretty certain that he
was forced to countermand the order made by the
police authorities, either by the course of the
President, or by the fear of public opinion or per-
haps both causes had this effect ON him.

Reports from reliable sources Indicate that the
corn crop has been seriously damaged in South
ern Illinois, Indiana, Western Ohio, and parts of
Kentucky and Missouri. Shrewd Spectators are
now out buying selections from the growing crops
Of corn, and negotiating for all the hogs they can
find. Now, if this report be true, and it comes
from such an excellent source that we bolieve it
so to be, farmers had better hold ON to their
crop and stock, ere selling out cheap. Corn will
be high, and 80 will pork, and our people should
reap the benefit. At all events don't sell before
you gather the crop, as by that time we will be
enabled to positively inform yca upon the subject.
