A NATURAL BAROMETER,

TOPEKA, Kan, June president Mob
Ter, OF the state department OF agriculture,
has just returned from trip to Winona,
Logan county, where he went to investi-
gate well owned by r. l. Smith, q
farmer living one mile south of Winona
which he says is better than any barome-
ter yet invented 1t is 135 feet deep, and
sends out strong current of air which,
as it escapes through the apertures about
the pump-stock, whistles in loud, flute
like tone that is distinctly audible to
every citizen in the township, and
more penetrating than the noise of any
fog horn. It is rather melodious, and,
heard at a distance, its varying notes re-
semble those of an Eolian harp.
This weird music may be heard for from
six to twelve hours preceding storm of
wind or rain or the approach of blizzard.
and when the tempest strikes it plays all
the louder until it has passed by, drawing
in the air with a queer, juggling sound.
In Logan county there are great many
wind storms, and whenever the people
hear Mr.. Smiths we'll whistling they
strike out at once for the cyclone caves.
Hundreds of people have investigated it,
but no attempt is made to explain the
mystery.

counties Of Harper. Barber and Meade, In
which there were no contests
Russell Virgins, of Attica, was then
nominated and elected temporary chair
man and L. NJ. Axline, of the Medicine
Lodge Crescent, as secretary.
What became of the report of the caucus
of the senatorial committee does not ap-
pear.
A recess was then taken till O'Clock, at
which time the convention reassembled.
On motion the committee on credentials
were irs5 called on for their report. 1t
contained the names of the regularly
elected delegates from each county. The
committee consisted of E. Sample of
Medicine Lodge. l. A. Love of Anthony.
and r. N. Painter of Meade. R. NJ. Paint
er submitted minority report and
recommended that both delegations
from Comanche he entitled to seat
with half vote each From o'clock till
II this motion was argued pro and con,
revealing the fact that several political
mudscows had been scuttled at their own
docks and that the work of the senatorial
committee had been in direct violation of
all precedent and custom. Many unpleas-
ant personalities were INDUCED in by both
sides.
The vote was finally adopted as read
without amendment. The committee on
organization recommended that Virgins
be elected chairman and Axline secretary,
which was adopted. After the report of
the other committees the balloting began,
the nominating speeches being dispensed
with owing to the lateness of the hour. 1t
was evident that only a combination Of
the Meade and Harper votes would defeat
Long.
A TIE ON THE START.
On the first ballot Harper announced II
votes for Finch Barber votes for Long,
Clark votes for Emerson, Meade
votes for Finch, boiling
their own candidate. Clark then
asked to change her vote and give for
Finch. The cheer went to the skies for
Finch, but loi The chairman of the Harper
delegation jumped to his feet and an
nouuced that Harper changed her vote and
gave 6 votes for Long and 5 votes for
Finch, which would have nominated Long |
Oy vote of 10 to Is. This brought down |
jhe house for Long, but poll Of the vote
was called for and two delegates from |
Harper weakened and cast Z for Finch and |
for Long, which made the vote stand II |
20 II.
TWENTY-SEvEN ALL ALIKE.
The balloting then proceeded regularly, |
z to II, until the twenty-eighth ballot,
when Emerson threw the votes of Meade |
or Long, which settled the nomination. |
The widest enthusiasm prevailed. Finch |
md Emerson both accepted their defeat |
lobly and pledged their support to the
Winning candidate.
A new senatorial committee was then
elected consisting of Russell Virgins, of
Harper; ). l.. Overstreet, of Barber: ;. NJ.
Jackson, of Comanche: J. n, Thomas, Of
lark, and George w. Wiley, of Meade.

PROCEEDINGS AGAINST A WIDOW.


MEMPHIS Tenn. June "A bill was filed
in chancery here today that gives rise to
considerable scandal on account of the ma
ture of the suit and the prominence of
the persons concerned. The COMPLAIN
ant is II. Clay King, a lawyer in good
standing and man of wealth, and the
defendant Mrs. Mary Z. Pillow, The
widow of General Gideon j. Pillow. of
Mexican war fame. She is a woman of
education and considerable personal
attraction, and has always been noted for
a disposition to rule the roost" before
and since the generals death. The bill,
written by King himself states that he
first became acquainted with Mrs. Pillow
in the spring Of 1888, since which time she
has cost him 5000 and all the property
he possessed 1t seems that their rela-
tions within the next two years passed the
limit of propriety entirely, for the e of
that period found them living in the same
house on Kings plantation, in Lee county,
Ark. During her stay there, so the
bill states, Mrs. Pillow persuaded
him to give her deed Of bargain and
sale to all his property in Arkansas and
deed of gift to his possessions in Memphis.
the condition being that she was not TO
claim the gift until after his death. The
deeds were put away in bureau drawer.
there to remain until Mrs. Pillow would
be entitled to have them recorded. Not
long afterward negro servant told King
that Mrs. Pillow had said she intended TO
take the deeds and have them recorded
and TO prevent this he destroyed them.
Then there was a scene. in which
Mrs. Pillow played the lead
ing heavy business" and finally she
so wrought upon Kings tender heart that
he wrote up other deeds of the same tenor
and they were put away in the same
bureau.
Everything went on smoothly until
Christmas. 1851, when Mrs. Pillows mar
ried daughter, who lives in Birmin CHAM.
Ala, came down to spend the holidays
She persuaded her mother 10 put a stop 10
the gossip created By her living in the
house with King. and IN February
Mrs Pillow went TO Birmingham
TO live with her daughter On
leaving the plantation, however, she got
hold of the deeds and had them recorded.
the one in the Lee county court and the
other at Memphis. In the summer OF
1885 she went to Chicago. where King met
her while he was arranging for the publi-
cation OF his Digest OF the Laws of Tenn

sprung up between them, for in October
following Mrs Pillow returned 10
the Lee county plantation and
took full possession, laying hold
even OF Kings favorite shotgun and at
thoroughbred bull-pup which he loved
She has held the fort ever since. and now
King comes with this bill in chSncerv.

LOOKING BETTER FOR KENNA.
Probability that He will be Renomi-

Special Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
CHARLEsTowS, W. Va, Jan. 25-All the bal
lots cast for United States Senator amount to
nothing and will amount to nothing until
wrangling over the adoption of rules to govern
the joint assembly ceases and the question is
finally settled. Nor does the balloting indicate
what the result will be. Another meeting of
the democratic caucus held last night shows
that Kenna will probably be the caucus nomi-
nee. He lacked one vote only under the two
thirds rule Of getting the nomination last
night and it is said that he would get the sup
port at the next caucus, called for Monday
night of one who was absent last evening. and
that Harr, who would not go into the caucus
will support him on joint ballot The union
labor men practically hold the key to the stu
alton. An attempt is being made it is said, to
induce them to support Golf for Senator in
order that Carr, one of their number, nigh,
thus by law become governor. This arrange
ment, however, will hardly be effected
The senate has got down to work. and among
the bills introduced was one to provide for the
listing of the male citizens of the state of West
virginia who are entitled to vote under the
constitution of the state, and to provide for
suitable punishment for persons voting or
attempting to vote who are not qualified voters
OF the state; for exercising or attempting to
exercise undue influence over voters and for
officers of election for malfeasance in Office.
A bill was also introduced for constitu-
tional amendment creating the Office of lieut.
enant-governor.
Next Tuesday will be the second Tuesday
after the organization of the senate, and.
therefore, no question can be raised after that
date as to the legality of a senatorial election,
and t is believed en- election will be had then
or the day following
