Now, it is not to be presumed that the
temperance extremists of Kansas are
not thoroughly honest in their belief that
prohibition is to be the salvation from
drink of both the present and unborn
generations, of their State; or have the
falntest shadow of suspicion, in their
earnest zeal for good results, that they
have buried the monster rum, by
interdicting his sale, even as a
necessary of life, business and
health, only to turn about and find him
hydra headed, with as many life-tena-
cious suckers and feelers as tropic-sea
aetopus. Even now, glazing them in the
face, are not only innumerable violations
of their law in their cities and county
seats, but in the remoter towns and ham,
let's, while the railways and express COM
panies are rolling in the high and low
wines ID the ratio of hundred separate
orders to one received before the law
went into effect, and the wholesalers of
Illinois and Missouri are openly announc-
ing big boom in their Kansas trade.

The Censor says that temperance
men are called extravaganza, when they
estimate that three-fourths of the
crimes of the country originate in
intoxicating drinks. Here is a holder

case brought before him which was

with intoxicating liquors.

The Week In mincIng Lane.

LONDON, July 29.-In Mincing Lane the
markets were, with few exceptions, un-
changed. Some sales were effected at
prices which favored buyers. Business in
coffee was again limited. The common
kinds generally have not quite supported
previous prices. ColOury and planta ion
Ceylon were steady. The same lack of conf
dence Is reported in other European mar
kets. Sugar was inactive. The weeks loans
were unusually small. The stock of cane
sugar 10 the chief consuming countries are
so moderate that the supply of beet is
watched with more anxiety than usual.
Even at this critical period of the season
sales OF beet are reported for delivery at
easier rates. Clyde refined was easy on
Thursday. Further supplies of the new sea
sons tea have arrived. Fine cargoes
are firm, and the finest somewhat
higher. Indian imports of fine meet with
strong competition. Rice is quiet. Spice is
slow. Saltpetre maintains its advance, ow-
Ing to the smallness of the stocks.

at the opening of which President
Calderon presided. The Presidential
message is brief document, aud

Slain by the Bedside of Her Chi d
The BFutes Caught One Con-
fesses - Speedy Vengeance De-
manded.

'BATNBRIDGE, July 29-Last Sunday
night, the 24th inst, Mrs. Martha A. Brock
cit, VINO lives eleven miles from this town,
was bTutally asssssinated, her body being
filed with buckshot. She lived in a double
pen log house, and was lying on a pallet
beside her little boy when the assassin fired,
one buckshot hitting the boy in the face,
inhIcting slight wound.
Mrs. BrOckett was in town on Saturday
and asked for a peace warrant to protect
her from Walter T. Williams, who, she al
legged, had threatened her life. Williams
was arrested last year on charge of steal
ing money from a Mr.. Donaldson, and Mrs.
Brockett's testimony in that case secured his
discharge from custody. Recently Williams
had Mrs. Brockett arrested on a charge of
killing one Of HIS cows, and during her
arrest she effirmed that she had sworn
falsely in the Donaldson case to keep VIII
liams out of the penitentiarY. 1t was fOF
this that he threatened her life. She re-
turned 10 her home on Saturday evening,
and on Sunday night at 9 O'Clock she was
assassinated.
A COrODer's jury was summoned on Mon
ud1, anu MdlLer L. Williams MS DrOLueF
John and Robert Durham, who were also
suspected, were arrested. After a session
OF two days a verdict was rendered, that
the woman came to her death at the hands
OF unknown parties, and the suspected men
were discharged. The excitement among
the people was intense, and yesterday after
noon, some new evidence coming to light,
B. Russell, Mayor of the city and editor
OF the Democrat, sWore out a warrant before
Judge G. g Campbell for the arrest of
Walter T. and John Williams and Robert
Durham.
The Sheriff at once summoned a posse
aud arrested the parties. Upon Durham's
arrest he confessed that Walter T. VIII
liams gave him fifty dollars to kill Mrs.
Brockett, and his brother John twenty five
dollars TO see it well done. He alleges that
John Williams loaded the gun, and was
present at the killing. Public opinion is
outraged, and a universal demand for
speedy justice is heard on every hand. 1t is
thought that the punishment provided by
law will be sufficient without having re
course to desperate measures.
