"When the record of surviving
soldiers and sailors, late of the Union
Army or Navy, was first established
In the Pension Office it was decided to
make as full and complete Il ret ortI OF

obtained. Owing, however, to the
fact that the number of ex-prisoners

giving post-office address, who were
at any time prisoners of war. Upon
receipt of your list, cards prepared ex.
pressly for the purpose will be mailed

part or all of the old machine shops
and occupy them for the manufacture
of buggies, carriages, omnibusses and
trucks. A powerful engine would also
be put in and inducements offered to
bring other manufacturing enterprises
here. Some gentlemen are already
prepared, we are informed, to establish
a furniture factory here as soon az
power can be furnished them, while
encouraging correspondence has been
had with box factory firm. Here is
a move at last, which seems to US to
be in the right direction. 1t is not q
proposition to give some stranger q
bonus. 1t is proposition to 60 into
business for ourselves, with the practi.
cal certainty of reaping rich return.
For years we have advertised that we
were ready to offer generous induce
ments to any one who would come
here and occupy the machine shops.
The plan now proposed will cost US no
more money and will leave the bust
ness in bur own hands. The lola Car
rage Works have now established q
State reputation for their work and
the enlarged establishment would be
an assured success from the start.
With the machine shops enclosed and
supplied with steam power, q number
of other smaller establishments would
doubtless be soon gathered here until
the entire building would be occupied.
And when that point is reached the
future Of lola as one of the leading
cities Of southeastern Kansas is assur.
ed. We hope that meeting will be
called soon and steps taken to make
the project an assured fact. Now Is
the time to 60 to work. The money
should be raised and the preliminaries
all arranged so that work could be
commenced as soon as spring opens.
We can do 1t if we only think we can.
We hope by next week to be able to
give notice that the first steps have
been taken.

CHICAGO, Oct. GA special dispatch
from Ell Paso, Tex, says: News has been
received here which confirms what has
been feared for several weeks-that the
hostile Apaches are still out, and the cap
ture of Geronimo did not end the Apache
war. Lieutenant Britton Davis, recently of
the United States army, now manager of
CerrOlettO's ranch in the State of Chihua-
hua, says eight hostile Apaches raided the
ranch during his absence and drove away
twenty mules. He started in pursuit,
and after following the thieves for several
days. came up with them only sixty miles
from this city, in the State of Chihuahua.
He was amazed TO find that they were
Apaches, ten in number. A sharp battle
enSued, but none Of the Lieutenant's party
were seriously hurt. Lieutenant Davis
says Old Mangus VAS the leader of the
thieves. Mangus has been for twenty years
the terror of the border. lie is regarded
as a far ADLER tactician than Geronimo,
and is imbued with deeper hatred of the
whites. Mangus and Geronimo are half
brothers. Lieutenant Davis says he has
pursued MaDgus and his band to within
twenty-five miles of FL Paso, where he
abandoned the trail. Davis thinks the hos
tiles are by this time in New Mexico, and
that they intend to make raid through

LEAvENwoKTH, Kan, Oct. 5.-The
WOman'a Suffrage convention opened in
this city last night at the Congregational
Church, which was filed with an audience
composed principally of women. The plat.
form was occupied by the speakers of the
evening-Miss Susan b. Anthony and Mrs.

Tribune of Beatrice, Neb., with DR.. Ruth

her bearing the inscription, No distinction
of sex in the right to vote" hung against
the wall.
Miss Anthony was the first speaker, and
opened her discourse by comparing the diff
ferenceS between the girls of this day aud
those of forty years ago. The girls of to-
day enjoyed far greater freedom, and in
duStTles and professions were open to them.
Nineteen years ago the Kansas Legislature
debated the question whether the word
male should be stricken from the cOns;ilu-
ton, and, notwithstanding the efforts OF

Mrs Colby next took the stand, her sub

good enough TO govern woman without

How q Backwoods Squire Arrived at q

A man whom we will call Brown,
living not a hundred miles from New
Glasgow, continued 10 solicit the

! basing his claims on his inherent and
acquired qualifications as well as his
fealty to party. At length, just prior
to an election, his ambition was graft
fed and staggered under the title of
Squire Brown" and he longed for an
opportunity to display his legal acu-
men before his friends. In due time
the occasion came and the worthy
squire proceeded to make the most of
it.
A man named Fraser appeared be-
fore him in decidedly battered condi-
ton and lodged a complaint against
one Sicily. for assault and battery
with intent to do grievous bodily harm.
| The eventful court day arrived and the
exultant and over-contident representa-
tive of her Majesty took his seat on the
bench. Several witnesses swore that
no assault had been committed, where
upon Squire Brown, remembering the
battered condition of the plaintiff
when he lodged the complaint. arose
in his seat and called in stentorian
tones: Hector Brown, Hector Brown,
come in court and answer to your
name;" then, reaching for the Bible,
gravely proceeded to swear himself,
after which he asked and answered the
following questions:
"What is your name?"
Hector Brown, alias Squire Brown"
''Do you know any thing about this
case?"
Il do, sir"
Tell the court what you know about
it, combining yourself to facts?"

tarily corroborated the defendants tes-

testifies to an ocular demonstra-

laid down in Blackstone's COM
