Ed. INDEX: The reports received
here Saturday night that Gen. DeGeer
had made an attack on Fort Dobson
were confirmed in the Sunday dis
patches. The General had made up his
mind that desperate tactics must be
used for the reduction of the strong
hold of the enemy. Col. Lichlyter led
the charge. The first and second lines
of breast works were successfully taken;
the enemy rallied and the Colonel lost
his prisoners. Then he undertook ia
get away with the ammunition of the
fort. For the want of transportation
this effort was somewhat of a failure
However, enough was captured to make
two or three hundred votes in Barber
county election. The General retired
in good order, declaring that he would
fight it out on that line if it took all
winter. Fort Dobson is north of the
Cheyenne reservation and south of Bar.

Last Saturday County Attorney De
Geer put up q job on the joints OF Kio-
wa that has shaken that village from
center to circumference. Realizing the
Importance Of taking the joints by sur
prise, he went to Sharon and swore out
three search and seizure warrants be-
fore Esquire Pelton. The next thing
was to get good men to serve the writs--
men who would do the work without
fear or favor. Fred. Lichlyter, Leon
Beals, Jack Newsom and VIM. Hoyt
were deputized and did their work we'll.
They went to Kiowa, and when all was
in readiness they maze raid. They
captured two wagon loads Of liquors
and fixtures. They found much more,
but could not hire teams in Kiowa to
haul it away. They also arrested three
men, Messrs. Wright. Hagerman and
Lamont. Wright and Hsgerman es-
capped from the officers, but Lamont was
taken to Sharon, and on Monday was
tried before Esquire Pelton, without a
jury, and fined 500 and costs, the costs
amounting to $44.48. Alias warrants
have been issued for the arrest OF the
two who escaped. and they will soon be
brought In.
The constables deserve the highest
praise for their work. in the face of
nearly q hundred men who cursed them
and made all sorts OF wicked threats
against them. After they had left
town, and were on the road to Sharon,
with their prisoner and the two wagon
loads Of liquor, they saw that they were
being followed. and supposing the OBJ.
ject of the mob was to release the pris.
oner, re-capture the goods and perhaps
kill the officers. they quickly left the
main road, and concealed themselves
behind some stacks until the mob had
passed. This bit of strategy probably
saved the life of somebody. as the off,
GERS are game, and would not have sur.
rendered without fight.
The moral sentiment of the county
should not be slow to show Mr.. DeGeer
Esquire Pelton and the brave constables
that their efforts to enforce the law are
appreciated.
The contraband stuff is still III the
possession Of Constable Lichlyter.

Four years ago.. when Harrison was
elected, an enthusiastic republican de-
clared that his farm was worth so per
cent. more than it had been under Cleve-
land. He cannot sell his farm to-day
for halt the money he could have sold
for under Cleveland. WhyP Because
the money is being contracted all the
time, and while money is dearer, every
thing else is cheaper. If you want to
enrich bond-holders and impoverlsh
land-holders, the present administers
ton should be continued one more term

and favorably known in this city, has
become connected with the Kansas
Farmer, Senator PETERS paper. Mr..
Cowgirl IS well known throughout Kan
sas and the west as an able writer, a
splendid business man, and a clean and
honorable gentleman personally, and in
every respect is valuable acquisition.
He is native Of Ohio, and is now forty
six years of age. He was raised on a
farm III Iowa. and graduated at tie
Iowa State University in 1869, where he
gave special attention to science as ap-
piled to industry. He settled on claim
IN Kansas in 1871. Since coming to the
state he has had number Of years ex,
perience in newspaper work, besides
his connection with the Kansas State
Agricultural college for some time al
one of the faculty. and bis numerous
contributions Of important papers tC
reports of the State Board of Agricul
ture aud other industrial publications
well Eit him for his present work. Mr.
Cowgirl was state sugar inspector un'
der Governor Martin and has also made
special investigations and reports foI

culture during the past eight years. Ills
past experience, observation and study,

The FIRST cigars made by the Spaniards
were of tobacco loosely rolled and held
together by the silken lining of corn
shucks, and always with a straw running
through the center, to be withdrawnbe be-
fore smoking, SO as to secure good
draught These were first introduced
into England in 1857 by the son Of a
Sra ish grandee visiting London, and
from there spread through all Europe.
This is The history of the birth of the
cigar into civilization, but we must look
considerably further back to find the
first records, and the can find no origin.
but only data of its being in existonce.
Tine cigar Of the native Bornean living
in the Indian Archipelago is a BLACK roll
three inches long, tapering to eitherend
the ouslr leaf covered with network,
of gray veins like cobweb These may
be APPLY called "dude killers. They
were smoked by the old Dyaks, and the
smoke inhaled to intoxication; while at
the weddings the bride and groom held
cigars in their hands, and after their
heads were knocked together three times
each placed the cigar between the lips
of the other, and the ceremony was
ended,
When the Patagonian smokes to
really enjoy himself he gives smoking
party. All assemble in hut, seating
themselves in circle, with a bowl of
water in the center. A cigar is lighted
and passed around, each one drawing
into his lungs as much smoke as possible
and retaining il as long as he can, lying
Hut on his face, with his curious cloak
thrown over his head. AS each exbels
the smoke lie grOans and grunts, until a
perfect babel reigns Then a fresh cigar
is lit, and as it passes around quieteomes
again. After the third cigar each
smoker sits quietly for few minutes,
takes drink at the bowl, and silently
hles cut Religion is supposed to form
the basis Of this custom.
