telegram TO THE HERALD. William H.
Claggett. the senatorial contestant from
Idaho. is in the city. He arrived On
Wednesday last He is staying at VII
tard's. He has been much sought after oy
the newspaper correspondents, but he has
thus far managed cleverly TO escape them.
if the Senate committee on elections de-
cides that Mr.. Claggett has claim, the de-
velopment OF tbs contest VIII be followed
with very general interest. Dubois says
they will not if that be so the affair Will
be speedily disposed Of Clagett says they
cannot ignore him and in that case there
viii be some fun. 1t is Republican lam
ily row and il is expected that during It's
progress any amount of soiled political
linen will be washed in the public through
committee rooms and Senate chamber.
That it viii generate any amount OF bad
blood is equally certain. What the enect
will be upon the party prospects IN ldaho
next autumn can only be conlectured
Dubois saws il will not be perceptlble.
ClaEgett isn't saying anything now, nut
last spring he was more communicative.
Then he predicted that if he was not seated
THE PARTY WOULD GO TO THE DOGS
and that Idaho's electoral vote in 'G2 would
be given to the Democrats. But willie be
seated? Claggett says that he will. After
making this statement he usually qualities
it by adding that he will be if the Senate
follows the law and the facts in the case.
ClagRett is very much In earnest. he
may be deceiving himself and his legal ad-
visers may be deceiving him; but that he
is in earnest-terribly in earnest-no one
who talks with him can doubt for a mo-
ment l chatted with him few minutes
at Wizards this morning. He had been
having long conference with his attor
neys. Messrs. Shellsberger and Wilson.
The conference must have been crafty
ing one, for he was
RADIANT WITH HOPE.
They had assured him, he said, that there
wasn't e flaw in his case. More than this
ne had consulted number of other gen
tlemen, learned in the intricacies of the law
and each had assured him that if justice
were done he would be given his seat
These conclusions, he says, are simply 1
confederation of his own Judgment, which
he does not, by any means, lightly esteem.
The impression here is that he is not, IL
the vernacular of the streets, 'in it.
Everybody l have talked with believes
that he viii be turned down, but he doe
not. If he is not given his seat his disap
pointment will be deep and lasting one

The Burglar Stole a Kiss.

The house of Thomas Owens, a we'll to
do farmer at Valley station, was entered
Friday night by a masked burglar, who
secured about thirty dollars in money
and several articles of clothing. The
door of the family bedroom had not been
locked, and the burglar entered without
difficulty. He carried a dark lantern.
In leaving the room he looked at the
sleeping ones, and saw the innocent face
of Mr.. Owens little daughter. He sud
denly bent over and kissed her on the
cheek. She awoke and uttered a loud
scream. This aroused her father, who,
springing up, spied the burglar. He was
not quick enough, however, and was
knocked senseless by a powerful blow on
the head with the lantern the burglar
carried. -Louisville Commercial.

ARE WOMEN EVER MEAN7
An instance Which Shows That There
Are Some Who Are Very Cruel.

An instance Which Shows That There
Are Some Who Are Very Cruel.
"Meanr' exclaimed Sparkins, as he
lighted the last cigarette in the fourth
bunch since morning. "Why, the mean
ness of women toward each other is CO.
lossal."
It was generally conceded at the club
that young Sparkins was an authority
on the female question.
"You chaps may not know" said he,
that a woman is always worried that
something may be wrong with the back
of her dress. Well, that's feminine char
acteristic, just as the habit of sitting on
the floor when they put on their stock
ings is. A woman on the streets is never
perfectly at peace in regard to her ap-
pearance from the rear. She can look
up and down the front all right, but un-
less she has a girl friend to advise her
she is never sure about her back.
"Now, you a imagine how easy 1t
would be to upset the peace of mind Of a
~nervously constructed woman by max
ing her fancy that some displacement OF
attire at her back is attracting the atten-
ton of people to her. Well, now, what
do you suppose | have found out? Why,
that there's an organized band of young
female fiends who devote themselves at
odd times to the business Of breaking
women up on the street by conveying to
them the impression that their garments
are making guys Of them. The plan is
to look straight at a certain point of the
victims skirt just as she is passing, and
then to turn and cast up the eyes to the
victims face with a look in which pity
and ridicule are equally blended.
"What do these imps do but go out on
to the avenue of an afternoon, distribute
themselves at equal distances in pairs
and proceed systematically to frighten
every we'll dressed woman that comes
along by their staring. And they gloat
over the discontinue they produce when
they get together afterward. They were
delighted the other. day when they drove
a lady back to her house, about ten
blocks away, after convincing her that
her white underskirt was in full view.
Now, what are you going to do with a
sex that's so mean as all that:"
Nothing" replied n of the listening
group. "What are you going to do"
"Well, I've got to take a couple of 'em
out to supper tonight" said young
Sparkins.
CATER the theater": some one asked.
"Oh, of course" he replied. "These
are theater ladies. New York Letter.

Kilkenny Cats.

During the rebellion which occurred
in Ireland in 1893, or it may be in 1903,
Kilkenny was garrisoned by a troop of
Hessian soldiers, who amused themselves
in barracks by tying two cats together
by their tails and throwing them across
a clothes line to fight. The officers,
hearing of this cruel practice, resolved
to stop it. AS he entered the room one
of the troopers, Selling a sword, cut the
tails in two as the animals hung across
the line, The two cats escaped, minus
their tails, through the open window,
and when the officer inquired the mean
ing of the two bleeding tails being left
in the room, he was c6blly told that two
cats had been fighting, and had devoured
each other all but the tails.-Notes and

OUR TOWN,

Mankato Free Press:--It is q common
occurrence TO have citizens Of western
towns complain that they are often called
upon to contribute money for the public
good. They are asked TO share in the ex-
peAse of advertising their city, obtaining
new industry, or accomplishing some
other result aiming at the common good
rather than their own personal benefit,
There are times when this Is felt as a bur-
den, and when even patriotic citizens turn
their faces in aversion from a man with u
subscription paper.
No pubic spirited citizen should allow
himself to be possessed by such feeling
and in a western town all citizens should
be public spirited. Next to a ns"a'S fam
lily and business, nothing should stand
nearer to his heart than the town in which
he lives. 1t is his home. II is the place
where he wins his competence and edu-
Gates his children. He wants to make il
as populous, as thrifty and as widely
known az possible. He cannot afford TO
be Indifferent to ANYTHING which will fur
ther these ends.
There is no wife like our wife, There
is no Ichildren like our children. There
should be no town like our town--the
town where We lived the town whose
streets our baby's footsteps tread, the
town where we shall some day sleep. II
such town is worth anything, 1t is worth
all We can do for it. 1t is worth the full
measure of our devotion, whether We re-
ceive an immediate dividend in dollars
and cents. or whether We merely take our
share of the common benefits accruiug to
the community.

SAM JONES' LITTLE SAY.

Speaking of monopolies the excentric
speaker has this to say:
"I impugn the motives or integrity of
no man or set Of men, but the best men
with the best motives can do much harm
in honestly trying to do much good. i
am sure this is true Of this unceasing
warfare on railroads and corporations
generally. I enjoy a rabbit hunt, hut
when there is danger OF running the last
rabbit out of the country, and when Se
have fifty dogs to each rabbit, prefer to
90 dog hunting awhile. This cry about
monopolies, trusts, ETC., Is popular but
silly. The Standard OIL company and
the Pullman Car company, with the sugar
trust, give to the world the cheapest oil.
the greatest comfort to the weary trav-
elers, and the cheapest sugar the world
ever saw. The Vanderbilt and Pennsyl-
vania railroads combine a network Of
railroads stretching almost over half the
United States, give the best equipped
lines, the fastest trains, the most reasoua-
| Ole ThteS OI duI fhiuodNb III 'ho WoiA''
What the south needs is not the dismem-
berment Of railroads and the bankruptcy
OF her corporations but such friendly con-
sideration and wise legislation as will con-
serve their interests and develop their re-
sources until the southern states shall
have as magnificent railroads as New
York. Pennsylvania, Ohio. etc.
The greatest prosperity l have seen in
America is along the line of the prosper
ous and we'll managed railroads. The two
are interdependent. II YOU will show me
one prospering without the other then
you will show me sight / have not
looked upon In my peregrinations. L
know IL is unwise to push this battle
further against the railroads, and IL those
in authority shall think and act different
