The new hanson cab, which began operations
yesterday, are certainly destined to effect COM
plete revolution in our cab and carriage system,
as the prices at which they can be had are so
moderate that their constant employment is an
assured fact. Elegantly constructed. and hand
somely equipped with weli-fed horses and neatly
uniformed drivers, they are to be regarded not
only as great public conveniences, but almost
blessings.

AnAmorons old Tar.

On board of the western bound emil
grant train that reached Emporia Sat
urday, was an old man from Balti-
more. who, judging from his appearance
had done much service on salt water.
Before the train reached this city, prob
ably while in Kansas City, the old ma n
secured bountiful supply of whisky
to which he did ample justice, and
which resulted in making him boiling
drunk. On the same train were several
women, and to some of these he made
such ardent overtures, that the conduc
tors assistance was brought into
requisition, and the aged Lothariro was
locked up. Before reaching here the
conductor telegraphed Marshal Bell and
upon arriving at Emporia the hoary of
fender was turned over TO him. He
was promptly placed in the cooler
and il is hoped will become sober by
morning, when he viii probably be al
lowed to depart He had on his person
$500 in money and two emigraut tick
cts TO San Francisco. He looks like an
old and rather tough tar.

SERIOUS ROW Ar srRoNo c1rr.
The OutErowth of whisky and an Old
Feud, Resulting Fatally 70
Gzoopua ERaI,I,

We learn from H. r. Fleetwood, who
was one of a large number that went
from this city II Cottonwood Falls last
evening TO attend the dedication of the
colored Masonic lodge al that place,
that disgraceful and serious row oc-
CURED, in which G. o. Babb, a stone
mason, was fatally shot. 1t seems that
there is and has been an i'll feeling for a
long time between those living in
Strong City and the Falls Last night
after the lodge exercises proper were
over, the crowd dispersed and went
ov,r 10 Strong City, where public in
stallaIion of officers was had, which was
followed by a dance in the hall.
About eleven O'Clock the trouble
began, induced, no doubt by
the rather free indulgence in
whisky, which fired the passions and
renewed thoughts of the existing bad
feelings between the two towns. AS
near as We have been able to get at the
facts, Que of the Falls boys tried to gain
admittance to the dance without paying
the requisite dollar. After the passing
of few harsh words with the door
keeper, he was slapped in the face by
the latter This was promptly resented, ,
and general melee occurred, in which
five persons received wounds. Word
was dispatched for the sheriff, and in
response Jabe johnson hurried in
Al nf h. n. -
way there he received u shot
in the hand, from party he
ordered TO halt as he was on his way
from the hall. 1t so happened that a
construction train, with u large force of
men was at Strong City, and they also
mingled in the ARRAY, pulling out for
the west as soon as the affair was over.
They are being pursued by Deputy
Sheriff Johnson and posse of citizens.
Early this morning Deputy Sheriff Cra-
mer, of this city, received telegram
from Deputy Sheriff johnson requesting
him 10 arrest II certain party here,
negro who has been working
for w. F. Ewing, under sew
eral Gliases-Ben Ray being his
real name. Cramer sought his man, ar
rested and placed him in Jail to await
the course OF events. The man arrested
here by Cramer acknowledges having
been in the row, and narrowly
escaped serious injury, stray
ball having p, ssed through his
pants leg. A small boy of Strong
City received a bullet wound i" the
neck, but We learn none of the wounded
five are badly injured. Excitement
runs high at Cottonwood Falls, and it
is not at all improbable that much
trouble will result from last nights
alrray. The authorities think it unsafe
for Ray to he taken away from this city
| for fear of mob violence. A large num-
Der of warrants have been issued, and
several arrests will be made in the
vicinity of the Falls.

Their Father and Mother Arrive from

of Them.
Our readers will remember an item
that appeared in THE NEWS about the
first of last February in relation to three
small wanderers who had turned up IN
Emporia and who were, according to
their story, intent upon taking up gov
eminent land. but whose joint capital
amounted TO but $1.15, which was
hardly sufficient to carry out their
scheme. Being poorly clad and hun
CRY, they were placed in charge of Mr..
Eph Brown at the poor farm. and have
been sent TO school, clothed and other
wise kindly cared for ever since.
Yesterday Mayor Eastman received q
telegram from the governors private
secretary, dated at Topeka, stating that
Abraham Bogard was in that city, and
stated he wanted his three children, who
were supposed to be at the Lyon county
poor farm. In compliance with the
above Mr.. Eastman went to the farm and
made arrangements for the children to
be sent to the capital to-day. Last even
ing, however, we are informed by the
ticket agent at the depot, Mr.. and Mrs.
Bogard and one child arrived in the city,
and are now probably with the
three other children, as MIR.
Eph. Brown did not come in today
as agreed with Mayor Eastman. The
parents are represented as having the
appearance of people in very straighten-
ed circumstances, and If such is the case,
it will be a pity to remove from kind
care and good home these three chill
dren, upon whom fortune in the past
has not been over lavish with her
