enthusiastic and hopeful of grand vic
tory in November as are the leaders.
Republican success in Kansas this year
means an era of prosperity such as the
state has experienced for several years.
And not only is the condition of public
sentiment right for such change but the
material condition of the people bear
out the belief The farmers have made
good crops, taking the yearc operations
as a whole, and the prices of everything,
with the exception Of wheat, are excep-

Evidently General Weaver is not a
close read sr of Bill Nye's contributions
TO current literature. In one of Bills re-

occasion when he visited an Indiana
town for the purpose of delivering a lee

sign bearing the inscription: Eggs 10
cents" and Immediately above it another
sign bearing the inscription: "Good
eggs 10 cents" Accidentally learning
that after his arrival in the city very

sold he took the train for the next town

Sugar-making is progressing very sat
isfactorily at Medicine Lodge. The
average of first sugars during the first
three weeks of the season was ninety
three pounds per ton of cane that went
over the scales. The yield Of seconds
will probably be about twenty five
pounds per ton, making the total yield
about 11S, pounds The price received
for the sugar is cent higher than last
year and the outcome is proving entirely
satisfactory to the.owners of the factory.
1t is understood to be the condition, like
wise, of the Fort Scott sugar plant, and
these two that have made thorough tests
of sugar-making from sorghum have
demonstrated to certainty that the
industry is not only practicable but
profitable, in view of which we look for
a healthy revival of interest in the sugar
industry in Kansas and steady growth
and development thereof henceforward.

THE RUSSIAN FAMINE.


Minneapolis Commissioner Gives Some
Interesting Facts.
NEW York, May 25.-James Edgar,
Of Minneapolis, who was intrusted
with the distribution of the food sent
over by this country to the famine
stricken Russian peasants in the Nolga
district some two months ago, has re-
turned to New York, after having satis-
factorily discharged the important duty
he had voluntarily assumed.
II visited all the principal cities in
the stricken district" said Mr. Edgar,
ausl vsraDtisneu agvncicls- IA -yess7fs- Igiuc0
for the distribution of the food. After
appointing the agents | travelled through
the smaller villages and saw for my
self the suffering of those starving
peasants II is impossible for one who
has not seen them as they are TO form
any idea of their helpless, horrible con
dition. They were actually starving
when the gift of the American people
reached them. The only thing they
could get 10 eat was black bread, aud
there was not even enough of that to
go around"
Mr., Edgar showed the reporter piece
Of this substance which he had brought
over with him. 1t looked like petrihed
black turf. The crust was almost as
hard as granite and could not be broken
with the fingers One of the ingredi-
ents of the compound, as Mr.. Edgar ex-
planned it, was ground sawdust. Broken
barley, oats, rye and resinous bark that
had first been reduced to u pulp were
the other ingredients.
This is the substance" said Mr.
Edgar, that the unfortunate people
have lived on exclusively for months.

SILVER CONFERENCE.

4 Belief in vienna That the Pull In silver
Is IA Device Of the "American Kings"
LONDON, May 24-The Standards
Vienna correspondent says The invita-
tion 10 the international silver confer
ence has embarrassed the finance min
istcrs of Austria and Hungary because
it strengthens the opponents of the cur
rency reform. Austria win follow Ger
many, but is disincliucd 10 enter the
conference.
There is a belief here that the con-
tinuous fall in silver Is clever device
Of the American kings to force the price
of silver so low that the Indian difficulty
will compel England to cooperate with
America to rehabilitatc silver and then
10 let the price go high enough to cem-
pensate spectators. Mr. Goschen's ac-
ceptance of the invitation is regarded
as the trump card of the American
"lSings"
BRUSSELS, May 23.-In tho chamber
Of representatives Saturday a deputy
asked for particulars concerning the
coming international monetary confer
ence, and advised the government to
advocate monometalism and a gold
standard.
NJ Beerlaert, president of the council
and minister of Finance, said Belgium
as well as Great Britain and France had
accepted the invitation 10 take part in
the conference.
Speeches were made by number of
deputies in which they urged the gov
ernment not TO take the initiative in
presenting the question of bimetalism.
In reply TO those speeches VI. Bernsert
said that the delegates who would take
part in the proceedings would not be
bound by the views adopted by the con-
ference in regard TO the matters under
discussion.

Austrian minister of finance, In a

Many Leading Statesmen Won Their
Laurels While Young Men.
At the very beginning of the republic
Thomas Jefferson, in the continental
congress, wrote the declaration Of in
dependence when he was thirty-three.
He had entered the Virginia legislatr .
at twenty-six and had obtained promi-
nence there, says the Washington Star.
Alexander Hamilton surpassed his
great opponent, Jefferson, IN early adj
vancement. He was a member of con-
gress at twenty-five and member of
President Washington's cabinet at thir-
ty-two
James Madison was a congressman at
twenty eight and John RansolI,h at
twenty-six, while John Quincy Adams
was appointed minister to England and
the Netherlands at twenty-seven.
Washington himself had been a stril5-
ing instance of precocity in the public
service, for he was appointed adjutant
general Of the Virginia troops at nine
teen, at twenty-four received the chief
command Of the Virginia forces, and was
but torty-three when he took command
Of the American army at Cambridge.
Daniel Webster entered congress at
thirty and Henry Clay was appointed a
senator at twenty-nine, before he was
of Unconstitutional age. Clay had previous
ly won great reputation as a member
of the Kentucky Legislature lie was
elected speaker Of the national house Of
representatives at thirty-four.
John c. Calhoun entered the South
Carolina legislature at twenty-five and
congress at twenty-nine. At thirty-fve
he became secretary Of war and occu-
pied the Office seven years.
Andrew Jackson was marvel of
precocity. He had carried fintloclS
muslxet as a soldier of the revolutionary
army at the age of fourteen. At TWEEN
ty-three he was appointed by Washing
ton district attorney of Tennessee. lie
was United States senator at thirty.
He did not reach the presidency until

MosTEyDEo, URUGUAY, VIA CALVES
TON, Tex, May 24.-A fearful disaster
has overtalsen the brazilian warship
Solimoes, off this coast She was dis
patched from Rio de Janeiro some days
since to act as convoy 10 the fiotilla
which carried troops To aid In quelling
the rebellion In the brazilian state Of
Matte Crosse. The flotilla had come on
ahead Of the Solimoes aud was up the
river awaiting her arrival, in order 10
proceed by way Of the Paraguay river
TO the scene of the revolt At tho same
time that the fotilla left Rio land
force was sent BY rail. II was 20 90 10
the end Of the railroad route and then
march into Matte Crosse, where, after
being joined by the troops from the
hotilla, the combined forces were TO at
tack the capital Of the state. The crew
Of the warship numbered l2T men.
As she was fitted out for active
service, IL Is probable that she did
not carry any small boats. Owing 10
the dangerous nature of the low and
sandy Uruguayan seacoast, she had a
pilot aboard just as the Solimoes was
off Polonio island near Point Negra
Castillos, she struck a rock violently,
bows on. The sea was very rough at
the time. All the crew were under
matches except four sailors and the
pilot. Two Of the sailors acted as look
outs. The other two were at the
wheel. Through the immense hole
made in her hull the water rushed 50
fast and furious that the vessel sank al
most Immediately. OF all her crew only
the four sailors who were on deck saved
their lives. The pilot also escaped One
hundred and twenty-three lives were
lost.
The unfortunate men did not even
get a chance to gain the deck. They
were drowned like rats in hole. As
the water poured in the victims seemed
instantly to realize their danger, and
made frantic but unavailing effort to
dash open the hatches Their cries
were heart-rcnding.

de Ia Plata.
The vessel was a two-turreted mon
itor, built of iron in England and
launched in 1875. Her displacement was
3, 700 tons, She had double bottom.
but there were few water-tight com
partments below the water line, and
when the hole was knocked In her hull
she went down like a cracked iron pot
Her dimensions were: Length, 240 feet;
beam, SIS feet; draught, II feet ) inches.
