A WIND BOOM.

Ii is hard 10 believe Kansas City
will rest under the humiliating con-
fession that when the paltry sum Of
$4,000 is required 10 secure a railroad
connection which will convert great
system now diveriing trade 10 ST
Lonis into feeder, only $4,000 car
be raised. There is not a respectable
country town in Kansas that cannot
do better than thst.-kansas City
Times.
That is true. There is not a county
seal in western or central X snsss that
would not do better. and without any
of the fuss and feathers exhibited by
Kansas City Ii is just as the EAGLE
has claimed, all along, of the wind.

A HUGE JOKE.


Mr.. Gould has proposed to remedy
this unnatural state of things by build
ing a direct connection and moreover
to make Kantas City the headquar-
tiers for his system on condition $50
coo is subscribed, and Kansas City re-
spends with the fearful admission that
only $4,000 can be raised. Kansas
City Times.
The idea that in this day any paper
should assert that Gould, for the pitt
full sum of $4,000, had proposed TO
subordinate the entire system of roads
of thousands of miles in length and
millions of dollars in annual traffic,
would be an insult if we were not left
to suppose it only a huge joke. lfit
was to the interest of Gould systems
he would spend millions-would run a
line from Paola to Kansas City though
the entire distance had to be cut
through rocks and hills. Gould is no
fool, but he would look like one should
he refuse the gift of a road or of even
$50. 900.

During the session Of 1881 Ae (then
governor) made the most strenuous
efforts to create county from the east
half Of sully county which should be
known as Ordway county. His son and
his private secretary lobbied the bill
persistently and out wicked desire for
little fun the house held it in commit
tee and gaveit encouragement until
near the end of theSsession, when they
killed it in cold blood by striking out
the enacting clause. The old schemer
concealed his modification by asserting
that the "boys" were pushing the bill

distorted forms scattered about the

the glass aud other fragile articles in the

crushed through the floor ct the spot
where the dynamite was placed.
Directly overhead similar hole
was blown through the roof.
The woodwork was set on fire
by the explosion, but before any serious
damage had been done by the flames
they were extinguished.
Popular indignation ran 80 high and
the clamor of the crowd for someone
upon whom to wreck vengence was so
great that persons arrested on suspicion
narrowly escaped lynching when set at
liberty. Wherever men congregated at
clubs, coffee.houses, hotels or on the
street, at home, everywhere. the one
topic of conversation throughout the

some of the perpetrators of the outrage,

used in the council relating to the town

privileges secured by doubtful methode.

requesting that the name be changed,
preferring to leave that sort of self
glori6cstion to ambitious members of
the legislature. I received reply that
the labor and expense OF changing the
time tables and maps which the road
had sent out would not permit OF q
change. In view Of these facts, and
that certain men desire little cheap
capital, to crafty the desire of my per.
sonal enemies, I have to suggest that
lehe name Of the town be changed, sub.
ject to the approval of the voters Of the
town, and if iit be changed to Independ.

Chattanooga special: Mr.. Pierre
Lorillard has been travelling through the
south in the beautiful Mann boudoir car,
the Adelina Patti, which he leases for
500 per day. His wife and party of
friends accompany him. Last night, in
coming up the Alabama Great Southern
railroad, he had his car attached to the
engine, to escape tho smoke. As the
train neared sharp curve in the road,
going at the rate of twenty miles an
hour, two little boys were seen on the
track frantically waving their hats. The
engineer succeeded in stopping the train
at the edge of q gap, the bridge over
which had been foated off by swollen
stream. The boys had stood there for
four hours in the cold. A collection was
taken up for the little heroes, and the
millionarire Lorillard passed out five
dollars.
