PRIEST VS.. JUDGE.

EMroRIA. Kan. March 2.-This city is
much stirred up over a sensational affair
which happened at the church of the
Sacred Heart yesterday afternoon. 1t was
during the funeral of John W. Hamilton,
a member of the Brotherhood of Locomot-
i've Engineers, and also of the Grand Army
of the Republic Father Leonard. the Off.
ciating priest, had finished and retired to
an ante-room, when Judge Fletcher, by
request, arose and announced that an op-
portunity would now be given to the com
rades and brothers of the deceased to view
the remains While he was speaking. he
was rudely interrupted by Father Leonard,
who, thrusting his head through the door,
exclaimed: ''No one is allowed to do any
talking in this church except myself. You
are doing wrong. If you wish to view the
remains, take them to the door" The
judge begged his pardon, butwent on with
his announcement. The remains were
then taken to the hallway, where they
were viewed by the members of both
orders. Much comment is being made on
the action of the priest, and many of the
prominent members of the church are
loud in denu citation of the action

TAETRANSMISSOuRL

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, March 2.-The
Transmis souri, Passenger association,
present part of the Western association,
met mere today The object of the meet
ing was to dissolve the old association and
reorganize under the new agreement. All
the members were present, excepting the
Great Northern, the Elkhorn, Union
Pacific and the Burlington and Missouri
River. On account of these lines being
absent, and because all action in the
dissolution of the old association and the
formation of the new must be unanimous,
no executive action was taken, and the
meeting was entirely of a dellberatlve
character A number of changes were
proposed in the agreement as outlined at
the recent meeting in Chicago and they
will be acted upon tomorrow, when all OF
the roads in the territory will be repre-
Sented.
The Kansas City, Fort Scott and Mem
phis railway, which heretofore has held
aloof from passenger agreements was rep
resented at todays meeting, and will
probably become member of the new
association, unless rules particularly OBJ
noXious to it are inserted in the agree
ment. 1t is also announced that. the Mis-
souri,, Kansas ana Texas will join the new
association.
The trans-Missouri committee of the
western passenger association met to con-
slider the question of mileage tickets. 1t
was agreed that these tickets were dis
turbing elements in passenger business,
and it was ordered that tickets which sell
for cents per mile per thousand miles
and 2l[ cents per mile for two thousand
miles shall hereafter sell for 215 and 3
cents respectively.

MORE LUNAOY.
An Alliance Scheme to Control the Grain
and Live Stock Markets.

TOPEKA, Kan, March "A new Alliance
movement coutemplates the formation or
huge grain and live stock trust, luclud-
ing Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri and Iowa.
Frank McGraEh, president If the Farmers
Alliance, says that the project is one of
the results of the failure of the Alliance
legislatures to pass certain bills LegIs-
lation he says, is too slow for an achieve
ment of the Alliances objects. Mr. Nc
Grath says that district Alliances are being
formed in every congressional DIS
trict, and provisions are being made
for building cold storage and
grain deposits. Each district Alliance
will be made up of delegates from sub-Al-
liances. In this way constant communi-
cation from individual members of the AL
lance is to be had.
I'VE will know ow manv cattle each
individual member of the Alliance has on
hand" said Mr. McGrath, land he can
hold them without selling for need Of
ready cash. A record of these facts will
be kept. No individual member will sell
his grain to option men or bankers, but.
when he is obliged to sell, the grain will
be taken by the Alliance. The same thing
will follow with cattle. We will have
agents in Kansas City, Chicago and st.
Louis, who will keep the district Alliances
posted as to the market and the demand.
Upon this information the demand will be
Supplietl, dui no more, dC a uAeu pIlCS dS-
termined by the Aliionce.
No option wheat will be on the market.
and there will be no speculating on grain
before harvest The four states in this
trust will practically control the wheat
and cattle markets of the United States
The commission men each day will wire
farmers to send liz a certain amount of
wheat or cattle, rs the case may be, calling
on the ones who are the hardest pressed
for cash The amount demanded to sup
ply the market that day will be appor-
toned among the districts equally, and,
in turn, apportioned by the district Alll-
ance. No farmer who is a member will
sell his products till called upon. BY this
plan fluctuations in prices will be avoided.
Other state Alliances are expected TO join
the movement. The hardest thing we
have to deal with is fixing the price. We
mean to ascertain the exact cost of the
product and add Il reasonable profit to 1t.
This will give us standard price that can
be easily maintained.
The new scheme is modelled in detail
after the whiskey trust. Of course you
will say that our principles will not admit
of it: but we have decided that we must
fight the devil with fire-that is, we must
fight combinations and trusts with com bl-
nations and trusts. While this scheme
will reverse matters by putting the stock
men and grain men at our mercy, we do
not think any injury will result. The
scheme looks visionary, perhaps, but VIII

It ia quite likely that no country boy
needs TO be told about the life of boy on
a farm, but he may more truly realize his
own Importance by reading what Charles
Dudley Warner says about him.
1T Is my impression" says Mr. Warner,
"that q farm without boy would soon
come to grief What boy does is the life
of the farm. He is the fsctotaun, always
thousand and one things that nobody else
viii do. Upon him fall the odds and ends,
the most difficult things. After everybody
else is through he is to finish up. His
work is like woman's-perpetualiy wait
ing on others. Everybody knows how
much easier it is to cook a good dinner
than to wash the dishes fterward.
Consider what a boy on a farm is ne
quired to do-things that must be done. OF
life would actually stop. 1t is understood
in the first place that he is to do all the er-
rands, to go to the store, to the postofice
and to carry all sorts of messages. If he
had as many legs as the centipede they
would tire before night.
He is the one who spreads the grass as
the men cut it; he slows it away in the
barn; he rides the horse to cultivate the
corn up and down the hot, weary rows; he
brings wood and water and splits kindling
he gets up the horse and turns out the
horse Whether he is in the house or out
of the house there is always something tt
do. Just before school in the winter ht
shovels paths, and in the summer he turn:
the grindstone.
"And yet, with his mind full of schemes
of what he would like to do, and his hand:
full of occupation, he is an idle boy wht
has nothing to busy himself with but
schools and chores He would gladly d.
all the work if somebody else would do al
the chores, he thinks, and yet l doubt i
any boy ever amounted to anything in th'
world or was of much use as a man whit
did not enjoy the advantages of liberia
education in the way of chores"

How q Clever Housekeeper May Manage
the Table Linen for . Small Family.
In a family where there are few children,
and where ordinary care is observed, Har-
per's Bazaar considers it quite practicable,
barring accidents, to get along easily with
but one white tablecloth week. In this
case, of course, colored cloth must be used
for breakfast and lunch or for breakfast
and tea. If the bare table is used at lunch
the housekeeper may manage to make
shift with one breakfast cloth, with the ac-
companying dozen napkins. If she can
possibly afford it, however, she should buy
two colored cloths and two dozen colored
napkins.
For dinner use she must provide two
white cloths, with the napkins to match.
These cloths may be about two and quar-
ter or two and a half yards long. Besides
these she should have one handsomer white
cloth, a, little longer, to use when she wishes
TO entertain several guests. With the pro-
vision of table linen described above and a
set of fruit napkins the housekeeper will
be able to manage very easily. OF course
she will desire tray cloths. sideboard covers,
center pieces, doilies and the like, but these
may be made Dy her own fingers.
