AIRING THEIR SKELETONS.
Family squnbble That Developed Threat
TO KilI-why n Bradford Man Thought
His Wife Ought to Die-They Now Live

A Family Squnbble That Developed a Threat
TO KiII-why n Bradford Man Thought
His Wife Ought to Dic-They Now Live
Apart.
Some interesting fragments of private
family history were brought into the light
yesterday afternoon in Alderman McMss-
ters' Office, in the hearing Of Louis johnson,
who was charged by his wife with surety of
the peace. The husband and wife looked
abashed and defiant by turns, as some un-
expected language dropped from the lips of
the other and the attorneys.
Mrs. johnson alleged that she was met on
Fifth avenue on last Wednesday evening
by her husband, who, she says, declared his
intention of killing her. The couple have
been living separate for some weeks, having
made an agreement to dwell apart in that
harmeny which was a stranger to them
while living under the same roof. johnson
agreed to steer clear Of all places where his
wife might be, and as his wife did not
think his wrangle with her on the street was
in conformity with the contract between
them. she brought the suit to have him held
under bail to not molest her.
The parties are from Bradford, but Mrs.
johnson, since her separation from her late
lord. has been living in this city. Her ver-
sion of the threatened shooting was cor
roborated to the letter bv Mrs. Costello,
also of Bradford who strobe TO and from the
witness chair with an Amazonian air that
was the cause of admiration from the look
ers-on at the hearing.
Neither of the women disclosed anything
Of nature foreign to the case, but when the
husband took the stand in his own behalf.

thrown upon his wife's conduct He stated
that the only serious difference between him.
self and wife was but a weeks ago, after 10
years of welded life, when they agreed to
disagree. He testified thar what he did say
to his wife was "a woman with son like
yours, who does as you are doing, ought to
be killed" He was then held under bail
for court.
Mr.. and Mrs. johnson are we'll known in
the Bradford region, the former being
largely interested in oil transactions.

The Williamsburg postofice is to be moved

BEATING UNCLE SAM.
A New Device of the Behring Sea
Seal Pirates.
NEED OF BOATS In THE ARCTIC,
Chsrtering Fast Steamer to Take Their
Stolen Skins.
OUR BOATS DIsTAkcED By sCHoONERs

VICTORIA, June lit is just learned
here that the seal pirates in Behring Sea
have adopted a new device for circumvent-
ing revenue officers, which is even now
being put in successful operation and which
can be carried on throughout the summer,
unless the Government sends to the Arctic
swifter revenue cutters than the Bear and
the Rush. The plan of the
seal pirates is this: They have estab-
lished q rendezvous at Sand Point, about
midway of the Aleutian group of islands.
The schooners, when they have collected
100 sealskins, put in there, leave their cargo
and then resume hunting. Thus, if they
are overhauled by the American cutters,
they will have so few skins on board that
they can be thrown overheard or concealed
and all evidence of seal poachings re-
moved.
SWIFT STEAMER CHARTERED.
A swift steamer has been chartered to
cruise about Sand Point and take the skins
as the schooners come in. This vessel is so
fast that it can easily leave behind any Gov
ernment steamer now in commission. This
steamer will make trips to Victoria and un-
load skins when she gets cargo and then
return. This work, it is said, has already
been in operation one week, as the date
fixed by the poachers to begin operations
was June 1.
OUR BOATS IN OTHER WATERS
They expect to make a larger cleanup
than last year, and it is difficult to see how
our Government can make any seizures un-
less they send the cruiser Charleston or some
other swift new vessel to do patrol duty.
The Bear is now in the Arctic, and the Rush
sailed on Thursday for Behring Sea. Both
are slow for steamers and have been dis
tsnced by feet schooners, so that there is no
chance OF their overhauling a speedy
steamer. Besides the damage to legitimate
sealing it is estimated that two out of every
ten seals shot by the poachers escape and
die, while of the skins that they take large
percentage are detective"

Mr. NJ. Mclean, well-known gentleman of
Allegheny. residing at Woods Run, had suf-
fered from catarrh for many years. The mat
terry secretion that gathered in his throat was
very tenacious and hard to raise and as some OF
1t dropped down into the bronchial tubes Of
his lungs he began to cough He had pain
over his eyes. and his head would often feel
dizzy. He took cold very easily, and as his dis
ease further advanced he coughed day and
night, and worse during the night. In fact, his
cough was so severe that he would spit up
blood. After receiving a course of treatment
from the Catarrh specialists at 323 Penn
avenue, he gave the following statement for
publication, with his named signed to it, as
positive proof of his complete cure: my dis

TIE SANTA FB STILL SPREADS.

1t has been officially announced that
Mr.. Marvel. for the Santa Fe system,
has bought both the Colorado Midland
and the Colorado Western. The first
road runs out through the mountains
from Colorado Springs to Glenwood
Springs, and the second runs from the
latter place to Ogden. The purchase
gives the Santa Fe another line to San
Francisco, practically, and cuts the Rio
Grande road proper and the Rock Island
off from their western connection for
Utah.
1t looks very much like the Santa
Fe had determined upon owning a line
from the Atlantic to the Pacific as she
already owns one from Chicago to the
gulf, and that in this far reaching
scheme its management is being backed
by the Barring brothers of London, who
slipped in 10 save the road two years
ago. If this be true the Santa Fe will
become a gigantic affair, Independent of
all pools, all traffic associations and rail
way combinations. The road is now
practically 50 and in the very near future
will tell all the other Missouri river and
Chicago lines TO whistle for themselves.

KANSAS HORSES AND THE FAIR.

A few days ago the Topeka Capital
contained a very clever article on Kansas
horses and the adaptability of the state
TO the production of superior strains of
the noble animal for all purposes, from
which the following is excepted:
aside from its success in breeding 70
the track, Kansas can produce draft horses
equal TO the best breeds of France or Scot
land. Senator Plumb's recommendation
that the horse breeders of Kansas make a
speciality of producing cavaly horses for
the United States army is worthy, also, of
consideration, and will doubtless result in
the development of an important branch
of the industry. What Kansas can do in
the matter of raising cavalry chargers,
with the requisite strength, activity, spirit
and disposition, may be gathered in a de-
lightful way by reading the last chapter
in Mrs. Clusters Following the Guidon, :"
a chapter devoted TO General Clusters fa-
vorite horse, a product of central Kansas. y
4 better insight into this important
and interesting subject may be had this
week in the shape of an object lesson at
the Southwest Kansas fair in this city.
Old horsemen and competent judges tell
us that there never has been congregated
at one place such an array Of superior
horse flesh as is at this moment on exhi-
bition at the fair grounds. This is say
ing a good deal, for Kansas has been
noted for years for producing unsur-
passed horses for certain lines. The horse
show alone is well worth visit 10 the
grounds to all who appreciate mans best
friend in the brute creation.

TOO MUCH LEGISLATION

from the Seattle Journal
At the recent convention of Kansas
Republicans in favor of resubmission, a
platform was adopted, of which one
clause is as follows: 1--WE believe that
too much legislation is a curse"
The Journal would be glad if the
leaders of both parties, in every state,
could be brought to a realization of the
truth of the declaration quoted. There
is, beyond question, too much legislation
and the government is becoming entirely
too paternal.
There are laws in several of the states
against the sale of liquor. There is a
law in at least one against the use of
profane language, Nebraska legislature
of a few years ago rushing to the protec-
ton of the Deity, there is a United States
law, about to go into force, that will
prevent the successful operation of lot
teries. There are laws that protect the
rich manufacturer and Cypress the poor
consumer. There is too much class legis-
latiOn.
But among those needed there Is no
national divorce law, and no law ade-
quate to prevent and punish the adulter-
alton of food and drink. Only few
states have upon their books a provision
to regulate the practice of medicine and
to restrain Charlatanism. The people
are prevented from buying liquor, the
effects of which they know, but are
offered no protection worth mentioning
from the unknown dangers of adulter-
alton or of medical quackery.
There are many laws on every statute
book that should be repealed, and there
are few that should be enacted. What
is wanted, generally speaking, are pure
courts, with sense enough not to be
eternally tied to precedent. and a
limited number of broad principles laid
down for their guidance.

The new tariff bill restores the tariff on
fax fiber and our farmers under its pro-
lection will be able to make more out Of
the flax crop than they can possibly make
by raising corn and wheat This will also
make a demand for oil mills There is no
better land anywhere for raising flax than
that we have in Kansas.-k. c. Gazette.
That's so; but what posters us is, when
all the farmers go to raising that crop to
the exclusion of corn and wheat, where
will they find a market for it? And
where will they get their necessary sup
plies of wheat and corn? The tariff on
wheat and corn would be felt, then,
while the tariff on flax would be a dead

| problems, jumping from one side to the
other, for example, of the tariff question
and arguing both sides. But as time
passes, the distance between the genius
/ of Webster and the genius of Clay seems
to broaden, as it becomes more and more
evident that the great expounder lived
for all time. If he were representing
Kansas to-day the same question would
be asked, What has he done? and because
finger could not be put on this
little bill and that little resolu-
ton which he had introduced for
the benefit of class or an individual or
his special constituency, because his
work has been for the whole nation,
there would be narrow and frivolous
newspapers to ridicule his services.
Senator ingalls, has always been Re-
publican in the senate, ha never vacilla-
ted on party Issues or public policy and
has done number of special things for
Kansas which have been mentioned by
his friends in defense against these child
ish onslaughts, but they are not what his
claim to the commentator of the state
should be based upon. He has made
worldwide reputation as a man of intel
lect. of brilliant ability in debate and as
an orator. of a comprehensive and exact
knowledge of affairs, and of thorough
familiarity with the duties of his posi-
ton and the province of government.
He has rendered Kansas more than re
spected in national affairs. He has been
hOnored in the most conspicuous man
ner and to degree unprecedented by
the United States senate. He has been
something more than vice president of
tho United States It * foolish 10 talk
of any one in Kansas filling his place as
a national figure. and the height of folly
for Kansas Republicans, against the pro-
test of the party throughout the union,
to speak Of dismissing him.
