Officers Scott and Rice last night, at a
late hour. arrested two men, W. c. Alex
ander and j. H. Rutledge, claiming to be
from Sulphur Springs, Tex, who
acted queerly in that they at
tempted to have various checks and
drafts cashed at different places
in the lower part of the city. and succeeded
in getting draft dra Il by the Bank of
Commerce, Commerce, Tex. on an Eastern
bank for $40, cashed by Dan Andrews, and
another for $50 cashed by man named
Gregg. Both parties became suspicious
later on that the drafts were
not genuine, and hunted the men
up and had their money re-
funded. Alexander and Rutledge later on
were in the saloon corner Main and
Eleventh, and attempted to have some
paper cashed when the police, who had been
spotting them for a number of hours, closed
in on them and locked them up for the
right. When searched the officers found
over $500 on them, besides three checks or
drafts On different banks. They will have
an opportunity to explain matters today

Women as Voters.

At the Kansas elections held or
the fth inst, woman participated
as they have right to do under the
Kansas laws:--
At Topeka the registration lists
were augmented by about 400 new
names of women.
At the Wichita the increase was
about 800; at Leavenworth $50; and
at Atchison, 200.
At Kansas City, Kansas, 1,245 wo-
men were registered; at Leayenworth,
2,74S; in Topeka, 2740; in Wichita
$500, and in Atchi.on, about 1900.
The number of negresses that vo!-
ed in Kansas City, Kansas, was not
able. The marched to the polls with
AZ much, if not more pride, than
their white sisters and exercised
their night Of sufferags with salts
faction peculiar to then race.
Dispatches from other Of the larg-
er cities of Kansas, indicate that the
vote of the women compared to the
registration was proportionate to the
male vote. Most of the women had
their tickets prepared st homo or at
places of meeting, and their pres
ence at the polls was only enough to
permit them TO deposit their ballots.
Only a few female candidates ap-
peared on any of the tickets, and
these few were up for election for no
offices higher than membership on
tho school board.

Reason for Office Seeking.

From the Franklin Repository of
April S:-Nine good Democrats have
announced Themselves as candidates
for the nomination for Associate
Judge by the Democratic convention
Of Fulton County. In the publish
ed cards soma queer reasons are al
legged why they should be given rthe
position One says he sis unable to
work, from the affects of a fall from
a bridge, and therefore solicts the
support of the delegates" A second
says that he is no longer able to fol
low the occupation of farming, on
account of being somewhat crippled.
A third announces that "as l am get
ting up in years this is the last re
quest l shall ever make of my party. "
Our neighbors over the mountain
certainly have some strange reason
to give in support of their candidacy
for Judicial position.

A Democrat Converted.

Read over his own name, the
statement of prominent Rhode Is
land Democrat of his convention
from Democratic Free Trade ton
dsncy to republican tariff or protsc
ton as represented by the Mckinley
bill.-Mr. Martin is Mckinley con
vert:
PAwTUcxEr, r. /. Mar. 26th, 1891.
To Mr.. CHARLES E. SEXTON, Secre-
tary of the Democratic City Com
mittee:
DEAR SIR Permit me, through
you, to present my resignation as a
member of the Democratic City Com
mittee. The undersigned is tariff
reformer. The Republican and Dem
ocratic parties are both tariff reform
ers. The distinction between both
on the question, is one Of method.
The Republican method is by pre-
lection, supplemented by its natural
end logical complement, reciprocity
The writer had the honor aud the
privilege to hear Dir. Mckinley at
the Young Mems Republican Club,
of Providence. That political lineal
descendent of Hamilton. Clay and
Webster made the most mastery
speech upon the tariff question that
Rhode Island has ever beard. The
presentation of the topic from the
standpoint of protection was COM
plete. In matter form and delivery
it WIS all bGt perfect Its force,
weight and argument are lnc0ntest-
able and upanswerab,e. 1t has left
no doubt i'll the writer's mind that
protection is the life line along which
the United States with least Injury
to itself must follow in its march te-
ward ultimate free trade with all the
nations. Coming to such a conclu-
sion upon the national question which
has been and is the chief ground cf
political contention between the two
great parties, he feels that he could
not honestly and consistently contin-
us a member of your organization,
since organically you represent in
measure the Democratic policy on
this great question. He does your
organization tho cIedit to believe
that you had rather have .an honest
and out-spoken opponent whom you
respect than dishonest associate to
be despised and suspected. In clos
ing permit me to offer to the Demo
cratic city committee my thanks for
the uniform courtesy and good feel
ing the organization has collectively
and individually shown me during
my short term of membership:
Respectfully,

Deeds of Crazy People.

NEwBURG, n. Y, April Q.
Seven small children were more or
less wounded to day by man who
is thought to be insane and who shot
at them with double -barreled gun.
1t was about half past 10 o'clock this
morning when a group of children,
none of them over twelve years of
age, were playing on Gidney avenue,
a short distance from st. Mary's Par
ochial School which they attended.
Just at that time James FL. Fergu
son passed with u double barreled
shot gun over his shoulder.
When he saw the children he
stopped suddenly and then without
any warning took deliberate aim at
tho group and fred twice. Then
without stopping to see tho Affect of
his act, Ear99Gson ran up the street
paying no attention to the screams
of the terrified and wounded chill
dren.
The reports Of the gun attracted
quite 4 crowd and it was fonnd that
seven of the little ones had been hit
with the bird shot, the most serious
Of the injuries being sustained by
Frank Barnes, aged 10 years. He
received upward of 20 shot in var
ious portions of the upper parts of
the body, eleven being in the face,
three in the neck, several in tho ear,
cutting away a small portion, two in
the scalp, and one directly in the
edge of the eye. The right hand
received half a dozen, and the
thick wooden jacket was filed with
pieces of lead.
