Arrival of Father Conraty.

One OF the passengers on the Zealan-
dia was the Rev. Father Lambert Con-
rady, who is going to assist Father Da-
mien in his work IN the leper settlement
on Molokai. The San Francisco "Chron-
icle" of May 4th has the following: "By
the steamer Zealandia which sails for
Honolulu tomorrow, there will leave the
Rev. Lambert COnrady, courageous
Catholic missionary, who is to share
Father Damien's labors at Molokai,
where the lepers OF the Hawaiian King
dom are located. Rev. Conrady appre-
ciates the fact that he is leaving America
never to return, in order to live in the
leper village and administer the sacra-
ment to the Stunned and afflicted inhab-
itants. His contraction of the disease is
as certain as its existence, but this does
not deter him from following out the
course which his religious zeal has die
tated."

AT LAST.
The VandaEiaS Win a Game From, the
HUnOIuIus

The sixth game of baseball between
the Vandalias and the Honolulus took
place at the Makiki grounds on Satur-
day, and resulted in favor of the Van
dallas-the first victory for them in the
series. The feature of the game was the
splendid battery work OF Bagan and
Crane. Bagan had the heavy batters of
the Honolulus completely at his mercy,
striking out twelve men, and only al
lowing one hit off his delivery. Parker
also pitched good balls retiring the Van
dallas for four singles. But for the
ragged support from his team he would
have pitched a winning game. Whitney
and Perkins carried off the the fielding
honors for the respective teams, while
Martin did about the only batting on
either side. There was a large attend
ance, and much interest was manifested
in the game. Following is the full
score

INDEPENDENTS.

The New York Tribune, speaking
on the subject of independent voters
and their support of Mr.. Cleveland has
the following:
There is small fraction of voters
who delight to call themselves indie
pendent, and who really think them
selves more conscientious or more in
telligent than the rest of their fellow
citizens. They wonder that they are
regarded with contempt, especially by
other men who have knowledge of
public affairs, but console themselves
with the thought that a martyrs
crown demands martyrs endurance.
1t rankles little, nevertheless, when
they find themselves profoundly de-
Spised by men of undeniable intelIi-
gence, and the sad-eyed independent
attributes the fact to the binding in
tensity of party feeling. Then these
same persons, as if to show all the
world why they are despised, go out
before mankind and say that there is
no difference between parties, but they
uphold Mr.. Cleveland because he has
honestly tried to do his duty, and has
given the country a clean admins
tratiOn.'
Try, Messrs. Independents, for once
to see yourselves as others see YOU.
Ask what would be thought of a re-
publican president who had made his
administration tool in the hands of
a ring of his partiSans who We're trying
to sell stock in a telephone company: q
president who had retained an attor-
ney general whose published opinion
that the Bell patents were void had
been widely advertised as a means of
selling the stock of the ring, and who
had prOtitted by sharing the proceeds:
who had permitted that attorney gem
eral to hold large amount of stock
given to him as bride to secure the
use of his name and influence; Yho had
referred the question whether govern
ment should assume the expense of
suits on behalf of this political ring,
and should attack the validity of its
own patents, not to a disinterested
party, but to secretary of the interior
who was the close personal and politi-
cal friend of the conspiratoTs; who had
confirmed the finding of the sec

plaisance in whitewashing. by making
him justice of the supreme court,
where he might have chance to pass
upon the validity of the disputed pa
tents; who had tolerated an expenditure
of hundred thousand dollars. more
or less, of the peoples money in suits
for the benfit of this ring of plunderers,
who had seen his attorney general con.
demmed as incompetent by the adj
verse decision of a United States Judge
in Ohio, and again by an adverse de-
cision in Massachusetts, and finally by
a decision of the supreme court; and
who nevertheless kept the bribe-stained

a NEK RTART-

The Garden City Sentinel says some
excellent things, well worth needing,
in the following:
Thousands of good men, and good
business men, meet with bit of ill
luck, a backset in business. and can't
get over it without going to new
place and taking new start. "a
change of pasture makes fat calves
says the old proverb, and tens of thou
sands of men have found that by COM
ing west where property is cheap, but
constantly rising in value, they have
more than made good all former losses
and in a short time found themselves
in easy circumstances again. Some
men can do it with ease and certainty;
others might not. \ man who knows
a good thing when he sees it will al
most surely see something in Kansas
that he can catch on to and profit by.
All property is cheap here in eOmpari-
son with eastern prices. A man with a
good pair of eyes in his head, with
business brains behind them, can
soon pick up something worth coming
for. If he is farmer in the east with
high priced farm under a mortgage
he can come here and for what will
seem to him trifling amount secure a
better farm without the mortgage.
If he is "a trader doing business OH a
small capital by coming west he can al
most certainly find place where his
small capital will double in a shorter
time than it would gain ten per cent
in the midst of his old surroundings
and the close competition.
Kansas is no place for drones or dun
! derheads. She was not built that
way, and such are not wanted here.
Kansas is made up of wide-awakes,
and wants more of the same sort. To
all such she holds out great induce
ments, but if man wants to hybern.
| ate like the bear, woodchuck OF
grounding, retire into his hole and
suck his claws for q few months, at
the approach of winter, Kansas has nc

Respectfully submitted.
HOnesty the Tseet policy,

An incident has just transpired that
goes to prove that all the people in the
world are not rascals. Sam Reamer
who was for some time employed by
the Holly Water Works company in
this city is at least man whose name
ought to be handed down as guide to
the paths of rectitude. About
two months ago DIR. Lyon of the Hotel
Whitley dropped his pocket-book con-
Gaining large sum of money. He had
given up all hopes of recovering it, I'M
til few weeks ago he received an I'M
signed letter from Nashville, Tennes-
see, saying that if he had lost pocket
book to insert a description of it and
its contents in certain newspaper in
Nashville. The doctor complied with
the request and to his great surprise he
received his pocket-book with all its
contents safe by a registered letter this
morning. Judging by all that occurred
Mr.. Reamer had picked up the pocket
book before leaving here and had been
watching the papers thinking it would
be advertised, but this DIR. Lyon neg
lected to do. After some time, how
ever, the book was examined and DIR.
Lyons name was discovered written in
side, hence the letter asking for a de-
scription. 1t is safe to say that such
men as Sam Reamer are few and far
between in these DAYS.

A dispatch from Wheeling to the
Globe says that most pecu-
liar method of collecting a debt incur
red through the death of an Ohio
gentleman in that city, some months
ago, was resorted to by the leading I'M
dertaking firm of Mendell & Co.
While family was was passing
through the city last autumn their
husband sickened and died, and the
widow put the matter of the burial in
the hands of the firm above named,
and in due time the body was con-
signed to earth. Some time ago it was
determined to exhume the body and
remove it to the home of the family in
Ohio, and it was removed from the
cemetery and brought into town.
When about to be removed to the depot
for shipment, the undertaking firm at
tached the coffin and remains for the
unpaid debt, and the remains were
taken in charge by constable and
placed in cellar TO await develop
ments. The proceeding has created a
great sensation wherever known.

THE refusal of Mayor Hewitt to
allow the Irish flag to float over the
city hall in New York on st. Patrick IS
day, excites attention abroad. The
Dublin branch of the national league
condemns the action of the lord may
or of New York in refusing to allow
the Irish flag to be hoisted on the New
York city hall on st. Patrick's day, as
an insult to the Irish race all over the
world" but the London Echo says:
MIR. Hewitt. the New York mayor
who would not allow the Irish green
flag to be hoisted over the city hall at
New York on st. Patrick's day, is, with
the exception of Mayor Grace, the
strongest, most respected and most
independent man that has ruled the
American city since the Tammany ring
was broken. He says the Irish may
have home rule at home, but they shall
not run New York-a sentiment in
which he is supported by all respecta-

The friends of w. w. Scott of En-
poria would like to see him elected as a
delegate to the national convention
from this district. Our first choice was
Senator Plumb-not so much that he
deserves such recognition, but because
the republicans of Kansas deserve rec
ognition. We suppose, however, that
Mr.. Plumb viii not be candidate.
This being so, we doubt if better Sc
lection than Mr.. Scott could be made
While Scott is one of the ablest men in
the state, and is as loyal republican
as can be found anywhere, he never
pushes himself forward, and he seldom
gets in any body 5 way politically. His
modeSty is equal to his ability. and in
the latter respect he is the peer of the
whole outfit. We hope to see Scott
chosen-no more graceful thing could
be done by the republicans of this dis
trict.-Osage City Free Press.

how much the people would like to
support him, the national republican

THERE seems to be no good reason
why the bill now before the house of
representatives to authorize the mana
gers of soldiers homes to furlough
their occupants should not become a
aw. 1t does not propose or involve an
additional outlay. On the contrary
money would be saved by its operation,
as by its terms men whose mainten-
ance in the homes costs sI4.75 month

why the Inmates of soldiers homes

WHILE General Sherman has dis
dained to reply to Senator Hampton's
challenge respecting the burning OF
Columbia, he allows 1.-THE North Amer
lean Review" to publish letter which
he has received from Captain Wood of
the regular army, bearing directly up
on the controversy. The writer de-
scribes in detail the circumstances in
which the union army approached the
city on the eventful day of its capture
and destruction. He was in one of the
four Iowa regiments which headed the
advance, and was in the first boatload
of volunteers who crossed the Con-
garee while General Logan was laying
pontoons. He states that the depot
was burning when they caught their
first glimpse of the city and before a
union soldier had crossed the river.
When seventy-five men had been car
ried over the Congaree by fatboats an
advance was made to the state house.
These were the first union soldiers on
the ground, and they took possession
of the capitol two. hours before
General Logan received the may
or's surrender of the town
AS they hurried through the
streets in skirmish line they passed 2
long pile of haled cotton, which had
been set on fire in several places either
by General Hampton's soldiers or by
the residents themselves. A high vino
was blowing at the time, and the
flames rapidly communicated with the
town. Captain Wood denies most
emphatically that the union soldiers
were either responsible for the de
struetion of the town or guilty of AM
acts of vandalism. "Wade Hampton, ,
he remarks, knows as surely as ht
is a living man that his command Sc
fire to that cotton and indirectl!
burned down the city of Columbia
and his reiterations of innocence con
vince me not only of his consciousness
of guilt, but also of a personal motive
be that what it may" This is con
elusive evidence from an eye witness
that the depot and the cotton wer,
burning before the union soldiers en-
, tered the town, and that the con
ditions were favorable for a genera
