Enumerated Four Times.

Mr.. /. L, Hallock Is very numerous
ly enumerated man. During the month
Of June he was travelling In the west
and south. At Salt Lake City he was
interviewed, and although he stated
that his home was In Iowa he was
made to count one for that growing
city. At Salida, Colo. he told the CEN
sus man that he lived In the Hawkeye
state and had already been counted for
Utah. But the bland gentleman pro-
pounded the usual questions, and Mr..
IIallock remembering the penalties for
failure to reply again told his story.
Down in New Mexico another Official
inquisitor tackled him. In vain did
AIr iiallock plead the two former
counts and non.residencc, and was
d. ia compelled to recite his history
and present situation. At home in
0akHeid Mr3. Hallock was not unmind-
tui VI her absent spouse, and when the
enumerator called she made him count
one for Audubon county. IL may be-
remarked that Mr.. IIallock temporarily
feels pretty numerous, but is trying to
gather himself together, and is resolved
to remain stationary during the next
epidemic of census fever.

A very peculiar accident occurred last
Tuesday evening at Gray, and it APP
pears almost as a miracle that it did
not prove most sad fatality. J. w.
Lancelots boy two and a half years old
while playing upon the well platform
was suddenly and without warning
plunged to the bottom of a well 80
feet deep, which contained 8 feet of
water, by the platform suddenly giving
way. The most strange feature of all
is that the boy was rescued alive and
without scratch Of physical injury af-
ter remaining in the well from twenty
to thirty minutes. The mother heard
the childs cries and after long search
approached the well and looking down
beheld her child with arms clasped
around the pump stalk with head and
body above water and feet resting up
on the rim of the valve cylinder some
ways below water. A man quickly
slid down the pump stalk, grasped the
boy and held him safely until perma-
nent relief came from above, to rescue
both from the well. Fortunately the
well was about three feet In diameter,
giving opportunity to apply relief. 1t
is certainly most wonderful fete for u
child of that age and beyond explana-
ticn or account how 1t failed to prove
natal.
Last Monday afternoon J. G. Wolfe
Z, NJ. Peek went south west TO start
oUe &c their grain meters and while
Gt ling the brow Of the hill by the
John Norris school house they saw "a
man approaching to meet them in u
tr' with very unruly bronco, which
manifested IN evident desire to monop-
ollie the entire sixty foot road. The
bays pulled their livery rig well out to
the side Of the road to let the runaway
pass md thought they were all right
until just as the wild brute came along
side their rig he suddenly whrled in
with lunge running one of his shafts
between Wolfe's arm and breast
through their buggy top, thus turning
over their rig and throwing the inmates
several feet in the air before dashing
them on the ground In very uncere-
monious and unbecoming manner.
The boys gathered themselves up good
naturally and looking round saw their
own team lying from them ut full
speed down the lane while the wrecking
brute that did the mischief remained
quietly on the spot, serenely viewing
the situation and safely tangled in his
own meshes while his driver In throes
of agony loudly and dolefully lamented
the loss of one leg (of his pants) and re.
fused to be comforted until the other
boys, Samaritan like, had released tho
british bronco, setting the cart again
In order and hurried away In pursuit Of
their own runaway team, which they
found In q barn yard about two and
one half miles away uninjured, but
the top buggy sadly demoralized. They
rugged up with rail and ropes and re-
turned to town In buggy with three
wheels riding on rail. No one was
seriously injured In the melee, while
some one must foot the bill of Chas.
Benton,s wrecked buggy. Moral, be-
ware OF runaway broncos.

rHE CONVENTION.

From the talk that has been float
ing around from various quarters for
the past six months, one might have
been led to believe that the Repub-
lean party of Allen county was a
mere tradition, something which
had once existed but would never
again materialize. All winter, and
along through the spring the old
party has been buffeted about, tram
pied upon and behaved until 1t
seemed to some, whose wish was
father to the hope, that it could never
more breathe the breath of life.
1t is still alive.
Nobody doubts it who attended the
convention last Tuesday. Delegates
from every township in the county,
young men, taking their first step In
political life, old wheel-horses who,
after bearing the burden and heat of
the day, are still as eager and en-
thusiastic as ever,-the very best and
foremost citizens of every neighbor-
hood-were all there as proud of tho
"grand old party" and as confident
of victory as ever they were. Talk
about "killing" party made up of
such men!
And the most enthusiastic Funston
men you ever saw! No other kind
there at all. Cheered every time his
name was mentioned. Instructed the
delegation to vote for him at Wyan-
dotte as long as there was a button on
his coat, and not satisfied with that
made every delegate give an indi-
vidual pledge to stand by the instruc-
tions before they would elect him.
Talk of Allen county going back on
Funston!
The platform was what might have
been expected from such convention,
straight, clean-cut, emphatic, de-
handing what the people say is right,
prohibiting what the people say is
wrong. 1t touched, very properly,
only matters of national interest. The
State affairs will be.looked after later.
1t was a great convention, made up
of bright, strong men, knowing what
it wanted to do and doing it without
a jar or a bobble. 1t demonstrated
clearly, that, SO far from being dead,
the Republican party of Allen county
is the Invest thing in these parts.

AT LAWRENCE ON Tuesday night,
under the guise of an address on the
political issues of the day, Geo. T.
Anthony made a bitter and vltupera-
tive attack on Hon. +. H. Funston,
declaring that he had "disgraced''
the district and made it the "laugh-
ing stock of the nation" and
appealing to the people to prevent his
denomination. Kansas politics has
seen some queer things. But we ven.
ture to say that it has never before
witnessed the spectacle of a man who
holds the most lucrative Office In the
gift of Republican State administra.
ton making public attack upon a
reputable Republican who was an hon.
orable candidate before the people.
1t, was an unprecedented outrage,
without possible justification or excuse,
and one which we trust the Republi-
cans of Douglas county will have man.
hood enough to rebuke as 1t deserves.
