THE BANDIT GRAHAM.
New Revelations as to His Past
Career.

From the Denver Tribune we learn that
the preliminary trial of the bandit, Graham,
is in progress, ard many new and interest
ing facts in regard 10 his past life have been
developed. Instead of being "Southerner,
as he always claimed, he was native OF
New York, born and raised on Lake Cham
plain, and his father was a lake boatman.
His early life was reckless and when but
seventeen years of age he served out term
Of one years imprisonment in pemarraras
Prison, Clinton county, New York.
The next heard of the aspiring youth"
was his CONSUMPTION into the rebel army.
His escape and organization of Federal
guerilla band in North Carolina, together
with his dash and daring, followed by an
appointment az first Lieutenant in the Tenth
(colored) regular cavalry, and his rise TO a
full captaincy and brevet major are all facts
that ensued. His later cashiering and dis
grace are also well known.
Graham has wife and child in New
York city. She is supporting herself and
little one by her own hands, and Graham's
highway attempt on Major Brooks brought
her the first intelligence she had had from
heriusband for four long years.
The progress of Graham's trial viii be
watched with great interest.

The Great chill Medicine.

No other equal 10 it; it is unrivaled. DR..
Wilhoft's great anti-periodic is the poor

small doses to effect permanent and COM

1t comes nearer being specific than any
other medicine now sold, and is endorsed
by the most learned and skillfnl physicians
in the country.
1t appeals TO the common sense OF the peo.:

chilis and fever, enlarged spleen, bilious
fever and others of miasmatic origin; be-

SHOCKING ACCIDENT.
Another Coal Oil Victim.

A correspondent OF the Topeka Common
vealR, writing from Abilene under date Of
Sept. q, says:
This afternoon about three o'clock Mrs.
Patrick Cregsn (wife of the section foreman
at this place. attempted to kindle a fire by
pouring coal oil into the stove. The can
containing about one gallon of oil exploded,
scattering the burning oil through the en-
tire room and completely sa:urating her
clothing; the poor woman was burned in a
most shocking manner, and after suffering
terrible agony for three hours, death came
to her relief.
Cregan's house, together with the residence
and photograph gallery of Henry Levi, and
another uncccupied dwelling, were entirely
consumed. Mr.. Levi succeeded in saving
some of his household goods, but Mr.. Cregan
saved nothing. A trunk containing $500,
the savings of four years hard labor on the
K. p. r. Il. track was among Mr.. Cregan' 8
losses. The deceased leaves two small chill
dren, the younger of which is an infant but
FIVE weeks old.

Never before in the history OF our Agn'
cultural Society, has affairs seemed so PROF.
porous as now. The people OF the city and
country seem to unite with the officers OF the
Society in making not only little better
fair than any preceding ones but one that
shall eclipse any fair or exposition ever held
in the West.
The entries up 10 day, We find, are more
than four times those OF any former year,
and they are of character that warrant us
in saying that the eth annual fair OF the
Kansas Agricultural and Mechanical Asso-
ciation will be the "biggest thing on ice"
Parties desiring to make entries from the
city should do it this week, and we wish par
iicularly to urge upon our merchants that
they make large displays in their respective
lines. No advertising pays so well as tins,
and we trust that our folks will not be be-
hind those of our neighboring cities.

Cheerful Messages from Distant
Towns.
FAIR ITEMS.
Purses for the Speed Ring.

IA the time for the opening OF our An
nual Exposition draws rear, the public In
teres, in the preparations being made is
yisibly on the increase. Already the hotel
keeper- are ss;ir and the god time coming
iucites our merchants 10 bring out their
freshest and brightest goods. There is re-
modelling of show windows. and hustle and
-:ir which il truly refreshing. A visit to
the Office OF the Secretary of the Association
Yesterday confirmed us in the belief that
there was some hard work being done there.
Hundreds of entries await recording and
classification. The CLERKS are all busy. In.
Vulnerable letters are on file from prominent
stock breeders, making inquiries in relation
to transportation, and Offering to exhibit
herds of superior animals. Gradually
one after another of our manu-
fscturers have decided that it is neces-
sary that they should be well represented
and show the citizens of rival places what
Leavenworth is doing in the way OF home
industries. All the furniture firms will
make a magnificent display, and without
any unworthy jealousy strive for the So
premacv. The Great Western Band has
engaged for the week. The Turner'S are
practising for the special premium on gym
nastics.
Among the numerous entries made yeste'-
day, we noticed articles in every line, agri-
cultural machinery, engines, fine arts, bread,
cake and fruits; also entries for ladies' horse-
manship.
The clock taken from the cabin Of the no.
;orious Bender family will be on exhibition.
Hundreds of entries Of horses and thor
oughbred cattle have been made.
A number Of Buffalo from Southern Kan
SIS will be on the grounds.
The secretary desires that all our citizens
who intend 10 enter articles for exhibition
make their applications as soon as possible,
as Saturday and Monday will be busy days.
There will be interesting races every day
# the fair, and on Monday the circus and
balloon ascension will add to the attractions
in the CITY. An immense attendance Is pre-
dicted, and if the weather holds good the
predictlon will most asauredly be verified.
