KANSAS methods are unique. The
city council.of Kansas City, Kan. voted
to purchase the plant OF an electric
light company for $4,000, The citi-
zens regarded the deal as job, +" and
called an indignation meeting, which
was attended by thousands. Several
iniammatory speeches were made, and
the crowd got SO excited that when
some called out Lynch them" the
mob started with rush for the council
chamber with that purpose in mind.
The aldermen had got wind of it, how
ever, and cleared out in time. Lynch
ing a whole city council would be pecu-
iiarly d Kansas job.

Peop1e Who Eave Had New Hair.

Some cases reported of persons of great
age, where the hair has returned to the
normal color, are very remarkable. BY an
inscription on a tombstone at Breslau it
appears that one John Montanus, who was
dean there, recovered three times the
color of his hair. \ Mr.. Marazella, OF
Vienna, died in 1174, aged one hundred and
five. "a few months before his death, &C.
cording to the account, ''he had several
new teeth, and his hair, grown gray by age,
became black, its original color"
John Weeks, Of New London, Conn, at
the age of one hundred and six married
girl of sixteen, at which time "his gray
hairs had fallen off, which were renewed
by dark head of hair" He died eight
years later. Susan Edmunds, of Winter
bourne, Hants, at the age of ninety nine,
five years before her death, acquired new
hair of a fine brown color" She died in

WAKING HIM UP.
An Experiment That Was Losing In
vestment to One Young Man.

There was family of five persons in the
sitting room of the Erie depot the other
day, and the husband and father had gone
to sleep and was snoring in way to at
tract general attention. 1t seemed a bit
curious that the wife and children sat
there locking at him and did not attempt
to arouse him, but they even hitched away
a little and whispered among themselves.
Presently young man with 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 off his
wind"
Yes" replied the wife, moving along
another foot.
YES, 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 fog horn, you know"
Yes" replied the wife. as she sat little
farther away.
Yes. We want him woke right up"
added the boy, as he changed benches.

say, old chappiel Come, wake now. Out
O. thisl Come, wake the merry, merry
dewdrop. old mani That bazoo of yours
is"-
Old chappie awoke with 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 at the top Of her voice, the boy
shouted "Papl Papp and the man with
the bazoo came out of his sleep and looked
around on the crowd and said:
Good landsi but was a dreamin' that
one of the COWS had pitched into me in the
barnyardi'
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 Hmping forth into
the cold world with the information that
pap always woke up fighting COWS OF
snakes or mad dogs, and that they were
ever so much obliged to him for his kind
ness to strange family in strange town.

The Louisiana Lottery Gases.


The DISPATCH has always refused to
print the advertisements Of the Louisiana
lottery. We have had no sympathy with
1t or its agents and promoters. We have,
on the contrary, been unable to under
stand how good men could conscien-
tiously be eng sged in such business, if
business it may be called. Neverthe-
less, the men who run that lottery have
rights which our lawmakers and our
courts must be made to respect.
1t CRATES upon our feelings to
read in the papers that citizens OF
the State OF Louisiana have been
indicted In South Dakota for violating in
Louisiana the United States laws in re-
gard to the transmission of lottery ad-
vertisements through the mails. 1t re-
minds one Of the Russian Government,
which sends its criminals to Siberia 1t
is in direct violation OF the Constitution
of the United States, which unambigu-
ously provides that sin all criminal
prosecutions the accused shall enjoy the
right to speedy and public trial by an
impartial jury Of the State and district
wherein the crime shall have been COM
mitted, which district shall have been
previously ascertained by law" To as-
certain district is to fix its boundaries
beforehand-to render certain the limits
of it. OF what value to persons charged
with crime is that provision Of the
Federal Constitution if a citizen of
Louisiana can be indicted in South
Dakota for an offence committed in the
former State P-or citizen Of South
Carolina indicted in Massachusetts for
On offense committed in South Caro-
lima? We cannot for one moment con-
cede that to deposit in box in New
Orleans letters addressed to persons in
South Dakota is violation of law which
can be punished in the latter State. If
it is, then, as We have limited, BEAST
BUTLER and THAD. STEVENS might
have had JEFFERSON DAVIS tried in
Maine for secession, and would pro-
badly have experienced no difficulty in
securing his conviction for that offence.
Let all lotteries be suppressed, say we.
But let us not allow our zeal in behalf OF
the punishment of crime to lead us into
committing such wrong as the one We
have herein called attention to.
Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1891-10-27

The New Phase OF the Florida Case.
The Florida contested election case
will not "down." Once in every few
days the country has another feature OF
II presented for consideration. The tele-
gram in Sundays paper concerning 1t
may be thought 10 be unimportant,
though the persons who favor the curial
proceedings therein referred to consider,
no doubt, that those proceedings are IN
teresting. To some persons it may seem
that both Mr.. DAVIDSON and Mr.. CALL
are attaching undue Importance to GER
tifcates of election, since the Federal
Constitution provides in express terms
that the Senate shall be the sole
Judge Of the elections, qualifications,
and returns of its own members A
statute OF the United States provides how
lists OF the members Of the House OF Rep
resentatives shall be made up during the
recess OF Congress, or. rather. before any
given Congress assemblies. But the
Senate is o continuing body. Whenever
it assemblies il assemblies as Senate,
whereas, at the beginning OF each Con-
gress the members Of the House OF Repre-
sentatives assemble and organize new
House. 1t is, therefore, important Tor
q contestant for seat in the House OF
Representatives TO secure place on the
Clerks roll, whilst it would not aid a
senatorial contestant to have his name
placed upon the Senate's roll. Indeed,
our impression is that this cannot be
done by the Clerk at all, the custom
under the law being for each senator's
credentials TO be presented in open ses'
sion, and, il objected to, referred
to the proper committee. 1t is GER
tain, at any rate, that no GER
tifcates OF election or credentials eau
tic the hands of the United States Sem
ate in this matter. These credentials
must be brought before the Senate it.
self before any use can be.made OF them.
We repeat that this is not the case in
the House OF Representatives whose
Clerk is authorized by law to enter upon
his roll the contestant producing what
seem to him to be the necessary creden-
tails. We have sided with Governor
FLEMING and Mr.. DAVIDSON, but we
must, Notwithstanding, be permitted to
say that their last proceedings have not
seemed to us to be calculated to
strengthen their case very much. How
ever, they have. we think, followed the
example set them by Mr.. CALL and his
supporters. These proceedings may
have the effect, if no other. of attracting
the attention OF the members OF the
Senate to the important principles I'M
DERIVING this case, and cause the discus
sions of those principles by that body to
be more thoroughly exhaustive than
they would otherwise be.

Tha Fair.

Let us hail the opening day OF the
Fair. and turn aside from business and
politics, as far as may be convenient, to
welcome our visiting friends to the city.
With such weather as that which we
had yesterday, the Fair will be great
success, for the people will not be able
to resist the temptation to go out to the
grounds and mix with the multitudes.
All accounts concur that the exhibit
ton is q good one-good in quantity
and variety, and the arrangement OF the
displays is very fine.
President BUFoRD and his associates
in this enterprise deserve our gratitude.
They have had an abundance of work
let them have also an abundance OF
thanks. Richmond badly needed some
great series OF entertainments and they
have provided them for us. So now lei
us make ready to enjoy them and to give
to all the friends and strangers within
our gates the right hand OF hospitality

Chesapeake ana Ohio Mails.

The existing schedules OF mail trains
on the Chesapeake and Ohio railway are
nearly all in favor .of northern and
western patrons and against us.
That it is an unfair discrimination
must appear to every thoughtful person
who takes the trouble to make CON-
parison OF the timetables, so far as they
refer to Richmond and Washington on
the one hand and to Richmond and
Cincinnati on the other We do not
charge that this was the design, but we
are forced TO lament that it is the prac-
teal effect.
Ali other great communities DEEPEN
dent upon the Chesapeake and Ohio
railway have better facilities than Rich
mond, but Richmond is not the only
sufferer. All OF that portion OF Virginia
between Richmond and Staunton, and
all the sections of country supplied
with Richmond mails at Gordonsvllie'
Charlottesville, and Basic City are also
injured by the discrimination. They
are cut of and are being alienated from
us and we from them.
Each community thus injured should
Join Richmond in demand for re-
form. The special need is for mail
train TO leave here about o'clock in the
morning. II the company will put on q
train the Post-Office department will,
no doubt, provide the postal-car and the
postal clerk. Indeed, the department,
upon proper representations being made
TO it, would no doubt insist that the train
should be provided. At present the
mail is not delivered with reasonable
dispatch, and the government, therefore,
is not doing for us what it is doing for
other cities.
It is quite possible that the train will
not pay at the beginning. Very few
new enterprises pay from the start, but
the company took just such risk as
this when it began to court northern
business Uia Washington, and we Judge
that the result has been satisfactory. In
our opinion, if the company would put
this morning train on and give it fair
trial, it would find such favor with the
public that there would never be sug-
gestion from any quarter that it should
be withdrawn.
We cannot afford to let this matter
rest We are in duty bound to protest
and appeal until the wrong is righted.
The Chamber OF Commerce is preparing
to move in the matter, and it should
have the sympathy and cooperation OF
the merchants, farmers, and people gen.
orally, who are subjected to inconve-
nience, and In many instances to actual
loss, by the present late train.
