The KirWin correspondent or the
Logan Enterprise has this to say of
a revival of business at Kirwin: In
speaking of the great revival at Kir-
win, the writer does not wish to con-
vey the idea that there is a revival of
religion; going on in KirWin, but a re-
Vival of the Olden times of 10 and 80,
when business was brisk in and
around the saloons; when men disc
beyed the command "LoOk not up
on the wine when it is red" You
know that Kirwin's business men are
an ambitious set of fellows. To some
of them st. John and prohibition has
ever been a thorn in their crows and
a stumbling block to their success,
and to conceive of some plan whereby
the whisky vender could sell his
wares to his ever thirsty customers,
and at the same time prevent them
from turning states evidence against
them in the courts Justice, has occu-
pied the massive intellect of these
busine men for two years, until at
last this problem is solved. The first
step is to start first-class grocery
store in the by 8 lean-tO of the sa-
loon; said grocery contains a few
packages of Arbuckle'S coffee, some
soap, starch, and few nutmegs-
whether wooden or not L cannot say.
The number of customers on Saturday
was simply immense, attracted there
| by the Arbuckle's coffee which was
placed in front for bait; and those
of their customers who belong to Gid
cons band of the finally faithful and
wore the badge of the order of the

power. The rim of this wheel pro

by some the wheel of fortune; and

w. w. 0UTHERIE's REMOVAL.

Interview With Him Concerning 1t.
The removal of Gen. w. W. Guthrie
from his position as one of the Trustees
of the State Penitentiary, by Gov.
Click excited considerable interest in
town yesterday, and in order to ascer
tain the Cenerals's version of the rea-
sons which prompted the Governor 60
take this step our reporter called at his
off 3e, and interviewed him in regard to
it
In response to an inquiry as to what
led to his removal, General Guthrie
said that Governor Click had expressed
to him a most decided antipathy to
Methodists, stating that he was against
that church, and if any Of Its ministers
were appointed 20 Office, he should do
his best to have them removed. The
General was in favor Of the appointment
of Elder Wake, whom he had known
for long time, aud whom he believed
to be entirely worthy of the position OF
Chaplain of the Penitentiary. He saw
no reason why the Governor should ap
point Dr. Krohn to one position, and
make fight against prominent Meth
odist when appointed to another.
Hense the General did what he could to
secure Elder Wakes appointment, and
the Board OF Trustees appointed him
Thcreupon Governor Click determined
to have the Generals scalp and he got
| it.
General Gutherie says that the true
reason for his removal is found In the
fact that Governor Click is determined
that nobody but renegade Republicans
and Democrats shall hold Office in the
p enitentiary, and has made pot house
of that institution for the Leaveuwortl
Democracy, with Tom Moonlight, rem
egade Republican, as chief cook. 1t i
equally notorious, the General alleges
that Governor Click and his kitcheI
cabinet have agreed to make the follow
ing appointments in the penitentiary
Mr.. Pussy, of Topeka, clerk Ton
Gable, Of Leavenworth, deputy warden
Rev. Hotchkiss, OF Holton, chaplain
and G. f. Weeley, engineer. As tn
Governor was we'll aware that he (Gen
eral Guthrie would object to these ap
pointments, it was determined to get ri
of him, and hence his removal ''for
cause" The General says, further, the
he Is Republican. and would not con
sent to hold the Office under CoVerno
| Click or any other Democrat, exceE
upon honorable and fair terms, an
when a minister like Elder Wake, eve
though Methodist, sought publ
position which he was in every wa
qualified to Gil, he was for giving it t
him, and under similar circumstance
would do it again.-Champion.

A NEW-FANGLED CONTRIBUTION
BOX

The latest thing originated By
churches to call the wandering sinner
home from the land of dreams, as the
contribution box is being passed, is an
electric attachment to the bottom of the
box. The sexton goes around with the
box, and if sinner is asleep, or looking
the other way, the box is placed against
his hand or ear, nose or bald head, or
anywhere that the flesh can be touched.
You know what tiugling sensation is
given when you touch an electric bat
terry Well, this is the same, only more
SO, and when man is onced touched
with it he remembers where he is for
ever after. They tried it in a Boston
Church last Sunday, and touched a
sleeping deacon ON the nose. He threw
his head back, struck woman who was
standing back of him taking off hel
cloak, aud then the man struch the sex
ton, and the woman's escort struck the
man whose head hit his wife, and there
was a terrible time but after it was ex
planned the man put half dollar in the
box.-P eck's Sun.
