william Blakeney,. misfortune.

William Blakeney was a shuttle maker
by trade, but pilgrim by profession. He
dressed for the part with long hair, long
gown and bare feet. He loitered about in
places where men resorted-taverns and
such-and there entertained all corners
with travellers tales. He had been every
where, this pious and adventurous pill
grim. He had seen Seville, city of sacred
relics; Rome, the abode of his holiness the
pope; he had even seen the pope himself
de had been to the Holy Land and stood
within the very sepulcher of our Lord.
And what with the strange creatures he
had met with in those far off lands, and
the men and women among whom he had
soJourned, and the things he could tell
you, and the things which he postponed
till the next time, the story would fill vol
umes. For six years he lived in great
comfort, eating and drinking of the best,
always at the expense of his hearers. This
man must have been an unequaled story
teller. Six years of invention ever fresh
and new! Then be was found out-he had
never made pilgrimage in his life. He
had never been out of sight of the London
walls.
So he stood in pillory-this poor novelist,
who would in these days have commanded
SO much respect and such solid rewards
he stood in pillory, with a milestone round
his neck, as if he had been a common liar!
And then be had TO go back to the dull
monotony of shuttle making, and that in
silence, with nobody to believe him any
more. Well, he shortly afterward died, !
am convinced, of suppressed fiction.-Wal-

Huge Amounts of Grain and Provisions to
BE Marketed This Year.
TOPEKA, Kan, Aug. Maj. X.
Hurst, of Howard City, a member of
the state live stock commission, has
prepared statement showing the prob
able corn yield and the revenue which
the state will derive within year from
corn, cattle and other sources.
81 think it is a conservative esti-
mate" he said, ''to say that the people
of Kansas will sell within the next
wear 500. 900, 600 worth of stock and
other farm products raised this
wear. l mean that that much of
Kansas grain and stock will go
outside of the state, not counting what
we use ourselves. We estimate the total
crop of the state this year at no less
than go, 900, 900 bushels The acreage
is less than two years ago, because a
good deal more wheat was raised this
year, particularly in the western half Of
the state. In some of the western coun-
ties very little corn was planted. l find
that the poorest corn is in the northeast
ern part of the state, particularly be-
tween here and Emporia. Down in the
Arkansas valley, in Cowley, Sumner,
Harper, Sedgwici, Reno and Kingman
counties, the corn is simply immense. l
never saw such corn anywhere. A
large share of our corn must be sent to
Eastern markets because we have not
enough hogs There are fewer hogs in
the state this year than last because
the farmers got rid of everything they
could last year to save paying high
prices FOR feed, but what hogs we have
are very goe6, They average larger
this year than usual, s9ad on account of
the abundance of corn will be sspt to
market in fine condition"
Maj. Hurst is of the opinion that
more grain Eill be sent across the
water this year than ever before.

KENTUCKY ELECTION.

Democrats and Alliance Men Get Every
thing-The New Constitution Adopted.
LOUISVILLE, Ky, Aug. with a
quiet election Kentucky yesterday
elected a full state ticket, adopted a
constitution and chose a legislature to
enforce it. The state officers elected:
Governor, John Young Brown, of Hen
derson; acknowledgements, NJ. c. AL
ford, of LeXington; Encouragement,
w. J. Hendrick. of Flemingsburg; an
auditor, treasurer, superintendent of
public instruction, register of the land
Office and clerk of the court of appeals
All are democrats and go in by ma
jorities from 20, 900 to 10000. The re-
publican party has not had in a. T.
Wood, of Mount Sterling, so aggressive
and popular a candidate as Bradley was
four years ago, and the democratic ma
jority will probab y show an increase.
Returns are now in, however, from
only fifty out OF 100 counties, and re-
turns are not full from these
The new constitution has carried
with a sweep, and the majority for it is
placed at anything from so, 600 to 1O0,-

The prohibition party had a full
ticket in the field, but polled a very
light vote.
The legislature is largely composed

REFORM ENCAMPMENT.

Mrs. ellen Jiougar Belabnr, Democrats,
Republicans and People, Especi Hy the
Latter.
SPHNGFIELD, ILL.,, Aug. THE re-
firm encampment now in session at
Oak Ridge park is attracting a great
deal of attention. The attendance has
not been large owing t. bad weather.
Mrs. Helen Cougar, of Indiana, spoke
yesterday on prohibition and woman
suffrage. She denounced the demo-
cratic. republican and peoples parties.
She referred to Secretary Schilling. of
the peoples party as the hired tool of
the liquor interest. Mr.. Taubeneck,
according to Mrs. Cougar, is a small
and insignificant stool pigeon for Mr..
Schilling. The hand of the rum power,
Mrs Cougar declared, might be seen in
every movement of the peoples
party. She referred to the party
as the child which had been born at
Cincinnati blind, without arms, with a
dollar mark for one leg and beer keg
for the other. Mrs. Cougar then turned
her batteries in another direction and
declared that the supreme court would
decide the school suffrage act uncon-
stitutional, since that body of men was
composed of persons who had not
breadth of mind enough to read the
Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments
Alright and see that women were al
ready entitled to vote. She gave Gov.
Fifer back handed slap by declaring
that he would have vetoed the bill had
he not been afraid of the consequences.
Other speakers were Rev. Henrietta
Moore and NJ. J. Tanning. The en-
campment will continue during the
yyAair

CAUGHT MAPPING.

The Absence of Gov. Thayer and Lieut.
Gov. Majors Affords an Opportunity to
the Nebraska Alliance.
LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. Gov. Thayer,
of Nebraska, is in Detroit at the G. A.
r. encampment and Lieut-Gov. Majors
whereabouts are not known. He is not
in Lincoln and is supposed to be in De-
troit also, or out of the state at least
Under the constitution President of the
Senate Poynter is acting governor in
that case.
Poynter, who is a strong alliance
Han, slipped down to Lincoln yester-
day afternoon and announced his in
tention of ascertaining whether Majors
was in the state. If he found that he
was not he said he would assume the
duties OF governor and run things until
Majors or FhsyeF should turn up. He
said that he would probably call
special session of the legislature to
pass a maximum freight bill
The republican officers at Lincoln are
panic stricken and the wires are kept
hot calling on Thayer and Majors to
return and save the state from alliance
Usurpation.
