PETERS whiskers have given him far
greater notoriety than his brain; but
Kansas is not the only state that can
boast of such notoriety. Gen. A. B..
Norton, editor of the Dallas Tex.) Intel

shaved nor had his locks trimmed since
Henry Clay was defeated for the prsesi-

They say that President Balmaceda Of
Chill is a splendid specimen Of masculln-
ity, fully six feet in height, well built and
as miId-mannered a man as ever scuttled
a ship or cut an adversary's throat. 1t
is but fair to say, however, that circum-
stances have a good deal TO do toward
bringing out such characteristics as the
last mentioned in the Chile president.

Wade Hampton has been chosen to
deliver the address at the unwilling of
Stonwall Jackson monument at Lexing-
ton, Va. Hampton was chosen, doubt
less, because of his intimate association
with jackson in the latter's noted cam
paigns; though if it had been desired to
have the address delivered by one who
more nearly represented the great Con-
federate leader in point of genius and
strategic ability, Gen. John B. Gordon,
of Georgia, would have been chosen.

A crowd of prisoners locked the jailor
in a cell at Mcpherson Thursday night
and left town. The county attorney
says: ''This thing of letting SO many
prisoners escape is becoming monot-
onus." The officer who was Overpow-
cred and placed in the cell no doubt
thought so before he was released from
his confinement, despite the thrilling
novelty of the situation.

Better Than Growing Alliances

From the Hiswatha Journal
Alfalfa is destined to revolutionize
farming in Kansas, because it will pro-
duce three tons of feed for stock where
one is now grown. \ field of alfalfa
commences to grow two months before
our native grass, and continues two
months longer. When cut and curled
for hay 1t retains its superior fine quail
ity which is relished by the stock. 1t
produces three times as much feed 10 the
acre as our native grass, and twice as
much Is clover.

The Same Old Crowd.
From the salina Republican.

There is a great deal of this pleasantly
INDUCED in at present by the Republican
papers of the state about the ''oid

earnest work comes, Kansas Republicans
may be depended upon to work together,
and in this respect they will show Kan
sas that it is the same old crowd.

There was a family of five persons in the
sitting room of the Erie depot the other
day. and the husband and father had CONS
to sleep and was snoring in way TO at
tract general attention 10 seemed bit
curious that the wife and children sat
there looking at him and did not attempt
to arouse him, but they even hitched away
little and whispered among themselves
Presently young man with a great deal
of collar and very little mustache walked
over TO them and said:
'He ought to be reused up, you know.
Palate has fallen down and shut of his
wind"
Eyes," replied the wife, moving along
another foot.
eyes, we want some one to wake pop
up" added the oldest boy as he hitched
the other way.
"Cawn't say that should fancy sleeping
in the next room to him at the Windsor"
continued the youth. Comes mighty
near being a fog horn, you know"
"Yes," replied the wife. as she sat little
farther away.

added the boy, as he changed benches.

Old chappie awoke with a sniff, and a
snort, and yell, and the first thing he did
was to seize that callow youth and rufiie
him all up like an old rag and pitch him
over two benches. Then the wife screamed
"Henry" ut the top of her voice, the boy
shouted Pap! Papr' and the man with
the bazoo came out Of his sleep and looked
around on the crowd and said
Good lands! but was a dreamin' that
one of the cows had pitched into me in the
barnyaTdp'
And later on the family surrounded that
mistaken youth and pinned up the back of
his coat, and found his collar under bench.
and lent him piece Of string and darn
! ing needle, and sent him limping forth into
the cold world with the information that
pap always woke up fighting cows or
