Americans Being Bled in Paris.
 New York Truth.

There is but one cry from the Amer jeans who are in Paris-extortion l They are bled at every step; bled mercilessly. Strawberries are $2 50 a plate and you can't get a ride in a cab unless you buy the coachman a new suit of clothes and another horse. Hotel bills are stependous; everything is just five times as much as in ordi- nary times, and the result is American visitors are not spending cent more than they are absolutely obliged to- Unfortunately, l am told that this spirit of extortion has spread to that colorado of moderate prices, London. One gentleman who turned yearning face towards America week before last, and galloped across the ocean in the "City of Paris" tells me that he was robbed just as unmercifully in London as in Paris. It is great mistake, and in the end l have no doubt the tradespeople of London and Paris will find it out.

A Romance of Courage.
New York Press.

college town Of Hanover, N. H., there is a farm- house that was once the scene of midnight fracas, in which pretty girl was the heroine, and & set of Dart mouth college boys a most amazed crowd. As it happens, the girl is now married to the ringleader in that escapade and they live very happily ir & great city near the Atlantic coast, SC the young woman must be called Jen- nie Smith merely to indicate that that was not her name.
 It was in the autumn of lSS- that the Dartmouth college sophomores having got over being freshmen, de- cided that the new freshmen were ris- ing above their places in a way that was intolerable, and that a concerted system of hazing must be inaugurated to even things up. One of their chiei objects of sophomoric wrath was Gil- bert Smith, big, good natured fel- low, who calmly refused to recognize in sophomore anything superhuman This Smith lived in the large farm house on the road to Lyme. A few of the more daring sophs got together and voted to raid the farmhouse and instruct Smith little.
 It was & black, chilly night when the band of regulators crept up the Lyme road toward the Smith farm house. It was dark in the house, ex- cept one window, from which light gleamed, as if to welcome friends in- stead of enemies. With no particular compunctions, however, the sopho- mores, after drawing over their head masks made of shirt sleeves, stamped up the porch, and, without knocking filed into the sitting room where Jen- nie Smith sat reading alone. Anyone who has ever seen & shirt-sleeve mask will understand that the fiendish sight made the girls pretty eyes fill with terror. But while asking what they wanted in as steady a tone as she could command, she knew what the answer would be.
 "Where's your brother Gil?" was the gruff chorus.
 "What do you want him for?"
 "To teach him better manners, 2 came the sepulchral reply.
 "He is very sick in the next room,' 2 said the girl, pleadingly. "You would not touch sick man, would you?"
 Had the expletive "Rats !" then been invented the students would have used it unanimously. As it was, they iu various other ways expressed their conviction that the sickness was sr invention to shield the big freshman and they proceeded toward the cham Der door with evident intention oi opening it.
 The young girl, with blazing cheeks and flashing eyes, went over to the door and stood there to bar the way
 "Stop" she commanded, with botf arms uplifted as if to ward of the whole world from the sick mar within.
 The students, still disbelieving the story of illness, though thoroughly admired her bravery, pressed little nearer, and one made as if to open the door. Quick as a flash the girl caught 6 big cavalry saber from the wal where it hung and lunged savagely al the masked figures. This time they fell back, but not before the cloth over the face of the foremost was dyed with blood from cut in the cheek This ended the hazing, for the boys valiantly begged her pardon and marched back to Hanover lost in ad. miration.
 The husband of Jennie Smith, who was not Jennie Smith, wears 6 saber mark on his cheek to-day,

| Oklahoma will prove to be. In fact. the
section of country referred to In the
| above description is Oklahoma proper.
| In view of the facts, there is no occasion
| for surprise at the desire to settle in Ok
| lahoma, as evidenced by Incomers from
all sections of the country.
Purcell is already full of would be Ok
lahoma settlers. who are anxiously
awaiting the fate of the Springer bill,
while some are going in and taking
claims and getting ready TO farm.
Everybody here with the possible excep-
ton of some of the merchants is inn
patient for the opening of the territory.
In my opinion the latter make mis-
take in not urging the opening of Okla
homa for the settlement and develop
ment of tins fertile country-just across
the Canadian-can only increase their
business, although other towns may be
built from territory which is now trib-
utary or beneficial to no place whatever.
Then too, the opening of Oklahoma
simply hastens the day, when the de
mands of the members of the five civil
lied tribes will render it necessary for
them to acquire their lands in seyeralty,
and the consequent settlement of their
own portions of the Indian Territory.
Purcell and her business men will then
lind themselves surrounded, on all sides
too, by producing territory, instead of
the present condition. which finds to the
north. an utter absence of production,
and to the south. poor apology for it.
IL Purcell can, with such inadequately
utilized territory, become good town of
say | 200 people, can she not be improved
by acquiring more territory: In fact
can not other good towns spring up all
over Oklahoma at proper intervals, with
out interfering one with another, espe-
Cially when the country is settled as
thoroughly as Oklahoma surely will be
in very few years.
Now, 1t Is not my intention or my de-
sire. to get into a controversy with any
people or newspapers of southern Kan
sas, or any other section of the country,
as to the character of the Oklahoma Ter
ritory (as contemplated by the Springer
bilD but must say after having seen near
~ every portion of it, that anyone who
will be disappointed with the country,
shall find they will indeed have had very
exalted anticipations of the same
The moral to be drawn from the facts
presented in the foregoing, is simply
this. Wichita has at her very thresh-
hold an immense territory TO feed her as
she grows. One whose resources have
never been tested or even i'm
agined, but whose area will
ere long be laced and mterlaced by rail
roads. centering at Wichita, as the spokes
of a mighty wheel (as is even now the

which will spring up the busy towns OF
torrT IF tN Io .IoI
wants of agricultural communities
whose transformation of the fertile re-
gion shall revoluhonize the climatic CON
ditions of the rest of Wichita's vast ter
ritory.
And all of this for Wichita and other
good towns along the border of Oklaho-
ma, in a ratio commensurate with the
capabilities and opportunities of each re-
spective city, but with Wichita as the
hub of this busy wheel of commerce.

TWO CONSPICUOUS EXAMPLES.

The actions of the governors of Ten
nessee and West Virginia in connection
with the results of the late election in
their respective states have been so anti
| podical as to cause universal remark. In
one OF the congressional districts of Ten
nessee, the Third, the contest was very
close, and in order to make sure of the
success of their candidate certain Demo
Gratis of the district perpetrated frauds
upon the ballots. The governor after
acquainting himself with all the facts of
! the case, decided that the Republican
candidate had been fairly elected and re-
fused to sign the certificate of election
that was prepared for the Democrat and
endorsed by other memb ers of the state
| board. And there the matter stands;
neither candidate has certificate of
election, and it will probably be left for
congress to determine which shall have
| the seat in that body.
The case in West Virginia, though SINH
lar in character, is exactly opposite in
the principal details, particularly as to
the action Of the governor. As in Ten
nessee, the election in one of the districts
was very close, though the face of the
returns showed the election of the Re
publican candidate. Official announce
ment of the result was withheld from
the public, however, for sufficient
length of time to enable the returns to
be so altered as to show a small MAORI
t. for the Democrat, and upon this the
governor issued certificate OF election.
OF course congress will pass upon this
case and right the wrong attempted to
be done
But the two principal characters in
these transactions are the governors
mentioned. The governor Of Tennessee
simply did his duty as an honest man;
but he honored the position he occupies
and enjoys the respect and confidence Of
all honest people The governor of
West Virginia, on the contrary, disre-
gartled his plain duty and instead Of re-
buking those engaged in a great wrong,
a harmful crime, he lends himself a
party thereto. in consequence of which
act he merits and should receive public
eXecration It is to be regretted that
the laws Of that state, severe as they
may be and adequate as they probably
are in ordinary cases, are not sufficient
to mete out full justice i'll this eXtraordi-
nary case. Public sentiment alone can
reach it and it is to be hoped that it will
find full exercise in its condemnation
of this act of treachery, for it is nothing
else,
