FANNY JANAusCHEK.

Emporia is fortunate in having two
entertainments by this lady this week.
She is one of the most distinguished
actresses of her time, and is supported
by the best company that ever visited
the west. She is on her return from the
Pacific, where she has been greeted with
. large and delighted audiences. In Den
yer over $500 worth of tickets were sold
before the arrival of the company.
The American cyclopedia says of
Janauschek:
Fanny Janauschck, u Bohemian tragic
actress, born in Prague, July 20, 1880
Her talent was developed Under the di-
rection OF BenediX at Colongne, and from
1913 to 1860 she was n favorite at the
Frankfort theater. Subsequently, she APP
peared in Dresden aud in other German
cities, From 1867 to1S1I she performed
in the United States in German, and af
ter visit to Germany reappearcd in this
country in 1873, performing successfully
in English, and winning great applause
by her tragic genius. In 1874 she went
again 10 Germany. She is now on her
farewell tour in this country
To show in what favor she is held in
the old countries where her genius has
made her reputation unequeled in the
annals of the drama, il is but necessary
10 name the presents she has received
from the various crowned heads before
whom she has appeared, she being
able 10 play not only in the English and
German tongues but also in French and
Russian. 1t is said she owns the most
costly diamonds on the stage. In one
act IN Mary, Queen of Scots, she wears
$4,000 worth of these bright jewels.
The present Emperor Nicholas.of Rus
STA, presented her with cross, set with
diamonds, valued at $4,000. The late
Napoleon III. presented her with his
portrait in locket set with diamonds
valued at $4,000. The Queen of HoL
land gave her pair of solitaire ear
rings, valued at $4,000. The Grand
Duke of Austria, paid his respects TO her
with a $4,000 solitaire diamond ring.
The total valuation put upon her jewelry
by Tiffany. is 100000. OF this enor-
nous amount, she only bought $4,000
worth. The city Of Frankfort on the Main,
voted her the last hundred gold coins
struck in the mint. The same city had
her portrait painted and hang in the
city hall.
No wonder the announcement that
this lady was TO VISIT Emporia caused
such ilutter among patrons of the
drama. A large number Of seats have
already been sold, and we shall expect
! TO see the hall crowded to its utmost ca
pacity.

John Tor Ala for Kansas Sufferers, and
TeIegraped to Draw on Him for any
Amount, 100000 II Necessary.
Kansas City Daily Journal
The readers Of the journal will re-
member that last summer when there
was great suffering in the yellow fever
district of ~the south. jaw Gould contri-
buted very literally to the relief of the
sufferers. He has shown his generosity
again. From a gentleman from Topeka
we learn the particulars of this last case
of liberality on the part of the railroad
king. It appears that out on the frontier
counties along the line of the Kansas
Pacific, there are some fam
lilies, not many, who are
suffering through lack Of food and fuel
The fault is principally their own. In
the majority of the cases the sufferers
went TO the frontier seemingly without
any thought of what the real situation
there must be. They had no money
ard no provisions ahead, and soon found
themselves destitute in Il country where
their neighborS were poor, too, and un
able to give them employment. There
were about sixty families reported to
Gov. st. John as in need Of help to get
through the winter. Such relief as
could be obtained was furnished and a
trusty agent was sent out to investigate
further and see that the supplies reached
the right parties.
The governor then sat down and wrote
letter TO Jay Gould, which was convey
ed to that gentleman by Mr.. Keeney, Of
Wa Keeney, Kansas. The governor
claimed that hunger and cold were quite
as dreadful sources of suffering as the
yellow fever. and appealed to Mr.. GoulG
to give what he could to help the suffer
ers on the frontier. AS soon as Mr.
Gould had made little inquiry as to the
manner of dispensing this charity, he tel
egraphed to governor ST. John to draw
on him for that purpose, to any amour
$4,000 if necessary. 1t is though
that 5000 will afford all needed relief
as the distress is confined to few.

In one of his talks with John Russell
Young, Gen. Grant drew faithful

Mr.. Young quotes him rs saying:
"The most troublesome men in public
life" said the general. "are those over
righteous people who see no motive in
other peoples actions but evil motives.
who believe all public men are corrupt,
and nothing is well done unless they do il
themselves. They are narrow-headed
men, their two eyes so close together that
they can look out of the same gimlet.

something must be done to help the
Greenback party at the spring elections
Yes, by all means 1t don't make any
difference about the country-what be
comes of that-so the Greenback party is
saved-so the Greenback party makes
political capital. 1t strikes us that pro
gress in that direction is now being made
backwards by the Maine Greenbackers
The thing the Greenbacll party now
wants more than anything else is to be
saved from its friends.

BELoIT, Kas., Jan. 16.-Special agent
Brewster Cameron, of the postoffice de

county, for selling large number of
postage Stamps al less than their face
value. Wilsted was taken before United
States commissioner Tucker, at Cawker
City, and bound over to appear at the
next term of the United States district
court, at Topeka. This habit of post
masters selling stamps at less than face
value, at places where their salaries de-
pend upon the number of stamps sold,
is one that the postoffiee department is
trying to break up, as il has already
caused loss TO the department nf over 4

Just such step as Gov.
Smith and Piilsbury had hoped
would be taken. There has been a sirohg
possibility before that senator Strickland,
who is lawyer, and has lawyers respect
for the opinion of the supreme court,
would go into the Republican legislature
this week. But such was his feeling ut

BosgoN, Jan. 20.-The Herald's Au-
gusta special says the debate in the Flu
sion senate this forenoon over an order
10 submit the question on the legality of
the two senatorial organizations TO the
supreme court, was very grave. 1t was
participated in by nearly every member
present and it seemed to be the opinion
of the majority that the supreme court
would refuse 10 stultify itself by the de-
cision conflicting in any way with that
under which the Republican legislature
was organized. This latter decision
several of the Fusion senators said they
regarded as final, and they looked to the
court for no comfort or relief. The gen
eral sentiment seemed to be opposed TO
an application TO congress, which, as
senator Ellis said, would be in total vio-
lation of the doctrine of the state rights,
that all Democrats regarded as sacred.
Several senators expressed themselves to
the effect that had it not been for the in
dignity TO which they were subjected
yesterday, the solution of the problem
might much more easily have been at
tanned.
