Police Court.

There were only two cases in the
police court this morning. Jonah
Thornhill, charged with having been
blind drunk, admitted the
charge. He explained the affair by
saying that he lost his wife about two
years ago and he felt so badly about
il that he sought to drown his SORROWS
in the flowing bowl. His tale was 80
touching and pathetic that it almost
caused the court to weep. The pris.
oner promised to leave town forever
if the court would permit him. His
prayer was granted. He was given
one hour to bid his friends adieu.
I. j. Ovens came into the city last
night on the blind end of the baggage
car on the Missouri Pacific. He
satisfied the court that he was sober
railroad man in hard luck, on his way
home from Texas, and his fine of IS
was stayed to enable him to resume
his journey.

and the Golden Eagles were about to
leave the field when by reference to
the rules it was shown that the um-

A Remarkable Cat.

Levi Gibson is the most successful
squirrel hunter in Missouri. He has
q cat named Thomas who is supposed
to be the best trained cat in America.
Levi takes Thomas, the cat, under his
arm and mounts his fast mare Lucin-
ds, and goes into the woods and as
soon as he sees squirrel he shows it
to the cat and says scat. Thomas
runs after the squirrel until it takes a
tree then right after it goes Thomas
up to the very top and the squirrel is
forced to jump cut. Then comes LIE
Wis opportunity, for by this time he
hiss open a sack which he always car
ries with him and holds it so as to
catch the squirrel as it falls. He has
been known to catch as many as 33 in
one day. This fine living is the cause
of Levi being so active and as you no.

THE FINEST CLIMATE.
Mr.. Leslie Marmaduke Compares
Missouri Weather With That
of the Lake Region.

Mr.. Leslie Marmaduke, who has
been identified with Sweet Springs for
some years and given considerable
thought to the subject of resorts, in
speaking of the recent developments
iu that direction at Excelsior. Reed i,
Pertle, Electric and other new i'm
provement, yesterday said: 81 am
glad to see capitalists turning their at
tention to the development of
health and pleasure resorts in
this section and believe that in
many essential particulars no country
is naturally more favored. With
in 100 miles of Kansas City a variety
of the very best medicinal springs is
to be found than anywhere in the
same radius in the world. They are
in the garden spot of a fast increasing
population, and when a few of the
more meritorious are extensively i'm

ern tourists, who contribute so largely
to the summer resort business, could
also be attracted here and, in the
matter of health, much to their ad-
vantage over the lake region of the

Speaking of the lake region l
think it is,o rather was, greatly over
rated as q resort section. The rail-
roads, by a free use of printers ink,
kept cool Minnesota and Wisconsin
before the public eye, and tens of
thousands focked into that country
annually to be eaten up by the mos
quitoes and to find no better summer
climate than they left at home. Of
course the lake country is picturesque
and large expenditures have made
many resorts attractive, but it is just
as warm during a few weeks in mid
summer as in Missouri, and mosqui-

tains, or else 60 north to the British
possessions, above the corn belt. But
wherever Indian corn grows, heat is a
necessity, and in Minnesota and Wis.
consin this heat is concentrated into a
very short season, but it is just the
season that the summer visitor is there.
1t is rare to experience a night here
that one can't sleep comfortably, for as
soon as the sun is down the trees and
grass emit cooling moisture 80 rapidly
that it il not oppressive by bed time,
sven though no breeze is blowing, and
usually we have such delightful even
ings and refreshing mornings that one
rather pities his neighbor who has
gone to the Rocky mountains and is
forced in doors after sunset by the
chill air, to say nothing of the I'M
favorable effect upon delicate people
in this excessive change in tempera-
ture from day to night.
"No, Missoari is hard to beat from
almost any standpoint. The authors
of the early biographies uttered a SER
ious libel in denominating our winters
as long and severely cold and the
summers as dry and intensely hot. ,
Many persons accept this as a fact
without giving it consideration or
comparing it fairly with localities
thought to be more favored"

Is the Size of a Herd EncOun'
tered by Col. DOniphan's
Cavalry.
While on Their March Through
Kansas to the Seat of the
Mexican War July,
1916.

The regiment of Missouri cavalry
under command of Col. Doniphsn in
the Mexican war had thrilling con-
test with an enormous herd of buffalo
while marching across Kansas Terri
tory en- route to the seat of war. The
account lie taken from the diary of Pri-
vste John Sheridan. volunteer from
Saline county.
Wednesday, July S-When our reg
imeHt was within two or three miles OF
Pawnee Rock We perceived the dis
lance literally black with buffalo.
The hunters detailed yesterday were
now sent out with instructions to kill
a number and bring the choicest
pieces into camp at Ash Greek
which we expected to reach by
evening. We had nearly reached
Ash Greek when an immense gang of
buffalo holly pursued by the hunters
;stampeded toward our ranks. We
opened fire upon them and dozens
bit the dust, but they clsmbered over
the dead bodies and ON they came.
Seeing that We could not stop them
or turn their course We attempted to
open our ranks to get out of their
way. Some of our horses became un-
manageable and for a moment it
looked as if We would all be crowded
down and trampled to death by the
herd. The soldiers directly in the way
seeing their only chance for escape
was by flight, put their spurs to their
horses sides and galloped ahead of the
moving mass. By riding in oblique
directions they succeeded in getting
out of the way. About dozen of the
boys rode IL miles before they es-
capped. / never learned how many
buffalo were killed but it could not
nave been less than a hundred. Capt.
Reid estimated the herd at 100000.
but am sure it numbered a million. "
