truth comes even with greater force when
we look upon it as play. The character OF
Cedric is SO simple and natural we are
drawn toward the simple child with a
strange infatuation. 1t is seldom that min
listers of the gospel are seen in our opera
houses. Many exceptions to this rule have
been made in the case of Fauntleroy, and
many minister has received lesson in the
cardinal virtues that has enabled him to
present to the children of his flock a pic
ture of the true child, the loving, loyal boy
not found elsewhere.
What beautiful thing it is to see in
children the many loving characteristic
found in Cedric, the little lord. When
Cedric is first made aware of the fact that
money and power are at his disposal his
first thought is for the poor and he not only
thinks but acts. A new tent for the apple

other deeds of kindness to the poor is what
endears Little Lord Fauntleroy'' to us all
and makes the world better for it. Take
your children to see this lovely play. and
when the tear dims the eye don't be
ashamed of it. 1t will soon pass away with
the many little flashes of comedy that fol-

purer and nobler for having seen Little
Lord Fauntleroy.'' 1t will be presented at

A TRIBUTE TO GENIUS.

According to the best historical data
obtainable, stockings were known to the
Romans in the days of the empire, but
they formed no part Of the ordinary
costume. A Roman in stockings would
have been guyed numerically by the
newsboys and bootblacks, and about the
only people who dared wear them in
public were the ballet girls. The art of
knitting stockings is claimed by some to
have originated in Scotland over three
centuries age. 1t reached England in
the time of Elizabeth and became quite
an important industry, and the stocking
grew to quite an important article of
wearing apparel. Elizabeth herself is
known to have worn them. In 1889
William Lee invented the stocking
frame. He was promptly McKinleyed.
The government thought the machine
made goods would drive the home made
article out Of the market and rum the
business of the grandmothers of the
period. So Lee was refused letters pat
emit. He went to France and carried on
his stocking making with great success

republican party. 1t was not until 1881

Corn is Fuel.

Senator Bentley and Ed O'Brien had
case before Esquire Mosley few
days since, in which Senator Bentley
raised new, and somewhat novel
legal point. AT least the point has never
been passed on by the supreme court
of Kansas. O'Brien client has caused
an attachment to be issued upon a
thousand bushels of the defendants
corn. Bentley put his client, who was
the defendant and a farmer, upon the
stand as a witness, and proved that he
was now, and had been burning corn,
that he used two steves, cooking and
heating stove, he swore that in his
opinion five hundred bushels would be
used by him in year. for fuel. AS
the statute of Kansas exempts to each
head of family a years fuel, Senator
Bentley moved the court to set off to
his client years fuel of corn, in
addition to years feed for his exempt
stock. After carefully considering the
matter, Esquire NIosley set off to
Bentleys client eight hundred bushels
of corn, four hundred for a years fuel,
and the same amount for the feed for
his exempt stock for one year.-Wich

r. 3. Rates Reduced.

A petition circulated by and among
the members of the farmers alliance
of Kansas, and signed by some 10000
of them has had the effect of obtaining
a reduction on freight rates on corn
that will be quite help to the farmer.
Taking effect on the Goth inst. all
Kansas roads will unite in a reduction
of the tariff rates on corn from Kansas
points to Chicago of 10 per cent. from
present figures. This, it is said will
amount to almost SO per cent. of a re-
duction in Kansas and at least an
average of 10 per cent. ON through
freight to Chicago. This will be but
small item to each individual farmer,
but taking the entire state through it
will save the farmtrs many thousands
OF dollars, and shows conclusively what
the farmers CAN accomplish if they pull
together for any desired end.
The railroad officials express the
belief that the price of corn at Chicago
will be lowered just the amount that
the farmers will gain, about % cents
on the bushel, and that the reduction
of freight rates will not benefit the
producer in the least. If that be the
case, then indeed 1T is time for
agriculture to rise up in its might and
assert its power IN no uncertain lang
uage.

Bankrupting the House.

Aside from the question of the con-
stitutionality of Mr.. Reeds course, he
is politically taking a perilous course,
for he is not following the wish of a
large majority, but taking steps to
arbitrarily increase party majority.
Not only the lawyers but the lovers of
fair play will be on his trail for break
ing the precedents of century in
order to unseat a democratic member
from West Virginia. ''Think of the
speakership of this house going into
commission!' exclaimed Mr.. Reed in
1882, when it was proposed to give the
appointing of the standing committee
to special committee selected by the
house. If the speaker carries his
present position to its logical conclusion
the whole house might as well go into
the hands of receiver.-Springfie

Again the Briber,
DIR. KLUBER.

Having failed to carry West Virginia,
and having been thwarted in their at
tempt to steal it, the republican plotters
have undertaken to buy it.
Delegate Harr of the Assembly,
charged in open Session ON Saturday
that he had been offered by A. R.
StOllings, the republican engrossing
clerk of the senate, 81 800 in money
and the Office of state inspector of
mines if he would vote for seating
Golf as governor. 1t is reported that
others members have been approached
in a similar manner.
The story is inherently probable. The
republican party, as at present man
aged, considers any means juststdble to
insure its supremacy. IT it cannot carry
states it tries to steal them. Failing
in larceny it resorts to bribery. Failing
in both it falls back upon usurpation,
as in the house of representatives.
1t is time for plain speaking. When
the president of the United States uses
federal judge and attorney to shield
from punishment corrupter of cleo
tions in bis own behalf, when the de-
partment of justice sustains partisan
jury-packers in Florida, when county
is disfranchised in Montana to reverse
the result of an honest election, when
a partisan court is invoked to coerce
the state senate in Ohio, when Bribery
is employed to seat a republican gov
ernor in West Virginia. and when the
lower house of congress is denied rules
and subjected to dictatorship in order
to compass the grand larceny of seven
teen seats, it is high time for the peo-
pie to make themselves heard in some
unusual manner.
