NOT sUFrrcrENT POPULATION

1--WE have not sufficient popula-
ton for q State-Congress viii not
admit us with our meagre popula-
TONS one Of the arguments OF
the opponents Of the constitution
for Statehood. Let MS see how ut
terly fallacious is this position.
Illinois became q State with less
than $4,000 population. Illinois
found no trouble since in gaining
and maintaining the position of Q
splendid State. Colorodo came In
with 1900. And hasn't Colorado
had q brilliant career9 Oregon,
this magnificent great State upon
our border, had but 10000 people
when she asked for admission, and
was freely granted II. Alabama,
Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi,
and Missouri, had about $4,000
each when admitted to the Union.
Idaho has q population in the
neighborhood Of 10000. And yet
there are men who tell us that we
have not sufficient population. Ii
IL not so much numbers, an Cover
nor Stewart remarked in his very
sensible speech last summer, as
pluck and energy, the physical and
mental qualities which sustain and
adorn a State. that Congress will
be looking after. Thank heaven,
Idaho has both qualifications: She
has the indomitable energy and the
courageous pluck, and the popu-
lation also.-Boise Statesman.

Would il not be advisable for the
Democratic and Republican County
Central Committees Of Elmore to
arrange for public speaking by able
orators between now and the cleo
ton, TO set forth in plain words the
advantages to be derived from
Statehood. Let this be done, by all
means.

Rejoicing az Richmond.

RICHMOND, Va, May 9.-There is
much enjoyment here over the wreck Of
the train carrying a portion of Libby
prison to Chicago and the fact that relic
hunters have carried away many Of the
bricks. etc, The opposition to the re-
moval is as deep now as when it was first
suggested, and the brag is now made that
the building put up In Chicago will not
be a complete representation Of the old
building, as missing bricks must be re-
placed by new ones. The larger portion
Of the building stands here yet. The
negro hack drivers have been much sgi-
tated over the contemplated removal in
view of the fact that many strangers de
sire to be driven to Libby prison. They
have reached the conclusion, however,
that they can still work the site of the
building. "We got de place whar it did
stand and de river. Dey cayarn't take
EN- to Chicago observed an old darby
driver, and that seems TO be the senti-
ment among them all.

FIRE IN A GALE or WIND.


LOUISVILLE, Ky, May Items OF
thousands Of men and women are Jour
neying toward the Churchill Downs this
morning. The twenty eighth annual
meeting Of the Louisville Jockey club
will be inaugurated this afternoon with
the great Kentucky derby; and notwith-
standing the antagonism of the book
making fraternity and the withdrawal of
certain stables as a result Of the handicap
blunder, the probabilities are that the
meeting will be one or the greatest in the
history of the Kentucky turf. The finest
horses OF the western country are here
today, 500 of them, giants from Cali
fornia, the flowers Of Kentucky and the
seasoned veterans Of the sunny south.
Proctor Knott, Of course, is the leading
~favorite for the derby. He is in fine
form, and within a few days has devel-
oped his old time speed. Come
to-Taw, however, will push him
close; and SO will Spokane. Other
starters will include Cassius and Cast
away ii; Lee Christy and Casella; Hin
doocraft, Moxie, Robin Hood, Sports
man; Long Dance, Once Again ano
Ganymede. Spokane is speedy and
game and has added to his reputation by
his creditable performance in the Pea
body hotel stakes at Memphis.

Walsh Ia "A Witness.

LONDON, May 9.-Archbishop Walsh
resumed his testimony before the Parnell
commission He said facts which had
come to his knowledge proved that the
influence of the National league tended
TO diminish crime in Ireland. Witness
was aware the league had advised ten
ants no. to enter their complaints in the
land courts after the parliamentary
act of 1881 was passed.
Subsequent events justified this
advice. Witness said he knew of
only one instance in which the league
was indiscreet. That was when one Of
the branches of the league passed
a resolution TO publish a list OF all
persons in the district who were not
members Of the league. Witness pro.
tested and the plan was abandoned.
Throughout the witness diocese cases Of
boy cot,ing were few, and anything like
intimidation was considered reprehensi-
bic. Members Of the league held that
boycotting kept the country free from
outraCes.

Cyclone.

Or Clothing.
Traversed by a Cyclone.

HUTCHINSON, Kan, May 9.-The wind
storm that has been raging for the last
three days eliminated in a cyclone in the
northern part OF Pratt county yesterday,
extending over the eastern portion Of
Stafford and up into Rice county. The
district over which it passed was spar5eiy
settled and but for hat fact the loss of
life and property would have been ter.
rible. The cyclone first struck a spot
about five miles southeast of Stafford and
for miles in a northeasterly direction left
nothing but a barren waste strewn with
wrecks Of houses II barns, trees
and fences, and here and there
with the bodies of dead and crippled
stock. The only person killed outright
was VIM. Crawford. whose neck was
broken by the lying timbcrs of g house
which was totally demolished. Nine
other people were fatally injured, and
about twenty or thirty were more or less
injured. Ply sicians were summoned
and the people Of the whole county
turned out 10 render every assistance
possible. AS soon as the news of the
cyclone reached 5 afford a mass meeting
was held and committees organized to
carry on the work OF relieving the dis
tress in a sy SYSTEMATIC manner. More than
100 people are left homeless and without
food or clothing. Reports from other
towns throughout the southwestern part
Of the state indicate heavy winds for
three days past, but nothing in the nature
of a tornado.

The chicken roost was invaded by the
animals. Mrs. G. jumped out Of bed and
went to the rescue with an ak. On en-

wildcat, which sprang at her, catching
one Of its claws in her left arm and LAGER

at her, seizing the calf of her leg and

corner, then sprang upon the little
woman, getting its teeth %entangled in her

A novel sight was witnessed in Col
umbus recently. There is a colony Of
gray squirrels in q tree in the state house
yard, and il q neighboring tree on
Broad street there are a number Of
fox squirrels. A motherly gray squirrel,
concluding her frisky neighbors as not
the right sort of associates for her young,
removed her children to another tree
farther away. The removal was effected
with zone Of the modern improvements
in travel. She simply took the little fel.
lows by the nape Of the neck with her
mouth and carried them from one end of
the lawn to the other. 1t was tiresome
business. She would travel about fifty
feet with one Of the half. grown fellows
in her mouth and then stop to rest.
Finally. arriving at the favorite tree,
she would painfully climb it until she
arrived at the box in the fork. Then
she would stick the babies heads In the
hole and give them a push. This was
kept Up until three "shy things had
been transferred to their new home. and
the mother then considered herself en-
titled to a little vacation on the lawn.
She, therefore, frisked around awhile
and gathered up some of the grass which
the lawn mower of the day before had
shaved of the turf.

The pigs in pigs in clover are the
ordinary marbles with which the festive
small boy doth disport himself in the
springtime, an9 thereby hangs a tale.
There are nearly 80, 600 of these puzzles
manufactured daily, and as here are
four pigs for each one, 115, 600 marbles
are used daily in making up the pig
driving outfit. This phenomenal de-
mand for little jokers consequent upon
the advent of the new puzzle has caused
the dealers in marbles to become avari-
cious, and the price has doubled already
and is still rising, and efforts are being
made to corner the market.
