A curious story comes from Salina,
Kansas, to-day. \ respectable farmer
named Sellnan was arrested at Salina
a few days since, charged with rape
and murder committed i'm Ohio some
twenty years ago. The man who
caused his arrest gave his name as
Crainer, and said lie was q detective
from Cincinnati. He took an affidavit
to these facts, but before the prelimin.
AIRY trial took place he skipped out,
and the neighbors and friends of the
accused man secured the country for
him. They found him somewhere
near Hays City, and 1t required the
greatest vigilance on the part Of the
authorities to prevent his being lynch.

The destruction Of public records by

warning to counties which have not
provided their officers with safes or

county In certain respects. While the
Register Of Deeds, County Clerk and
Treasurer each have vaults, the Pro-
bate Judge. Clerk Of the District Court,
County Superintendent and others
have no safe place for their records
and papers. 1t would be . great blow
indeed 10 the county to have the
records Of the Probate Judge and Clerk
ofthe Court destroyed. No amount of
money could replace them. We believe
the Taxpayers of the county In . mass
would very readily authorize the
County Commissioner to proceed at
once to protect this valuable property.
And to get the necessary room for

The child is in a fretful mood, and has
been crying for long time. The cat
endures the annoyance tor some time,
though evidently displeased. But even
feline patience has its limits So pussy
uncoiled herself, walked up to the child
and gave her a box on the ear with her
closed paw, and then lay down again be-
fore the fire. The child, taken complete
ly aback, cried louder than ever. Again
pussy tried to endure it. Again her pa
tience became exhausted, and she deliv-
cred second box upon the ear, which
nearly knocked the child off her stool.
1t was now the little girls turn to be en-

dragged it round the room by the tail.
The story rests on the authority of the
child's mother, who was witness of the

Wilde and Miss Morris,

Before he left New York, Mr. Wilde
had an opportunity of meeting Miss
Clara Morris. The event took place at
the house of fashionable New York
lady, Mrs. Croly during a reception
The interview between the celebrated
actress and Mr.. Wilde was viewed with
much curiosity by Mrs. Croly's assembled
guests. Clara, aIrayed in white, glist>
ening i'll Jewels, awaited the appearance
of ''the youth to whom is given so much
or earth, so much of heavenr' with mix
ed emotions. Oscar, rejoicing in the
most extraordinary composure ever
VOuchsafed to mortal man, repeatedly
besOught her not to run away" saying
that he could scarcely hope TO convey
to her how much this meeting meant to
him. Il am nobody," he remarked.
',but Mile. Sarah Bernhardt is an author
ity; she has told me how greatly she ad-
mired your acting, all reports to the con-
trary Notwithstanding There are So
many things | should like to say toyou."
An opportunity was found later III the
evening, after Oscar had been duly i'll
troduced to others present who, he like
wise modestly remarked TO Miss Morris,
were not there to see him, but ''because
they love and honor" her. After seeing
her in the ''New Magdalen," Mr.. Wilde
said many complimentary things, One
speech was: is it possible that you are
guilty of an affection? For it is one to
persist in your refusal to act in London"
