The people Of the west arc darker
than those of the east 1t is easy to
see that They live more in the open
air. They are Drowned by the sun and
roughened by the winds of the prairies.
This is as true of the women as of the
men. West of the Mississippi you see
very few fat men. Even middleweight
men are rare The rule is, tall, dark,
dark haired, brown or black beard,
thin. What is it that makes so many
men of the prairie west shoot up more
than six feet in the air and vet keep
their weight down to one hundred and
sixty and one hundred and sixty-five
pounds could not discern. But any
one who travels much in that region
must have noticed the remarkable
stature, of the men as n whole. Of
course the average of humanity in the
west is more uncouth than in the cast.
In the hotels and in dining cars you
see more men, and more women, too,
eating with their knives. or with nap
kins tucked under their chins. West
of Chicago youAvill hear three times rs
many persons sucking soup out of their
spoons rs cast of that point. But in
kindness, true. sincere po!iteness. alb
sence of nffectation and piggishness,
the westcrners beat us every time. If
you go out from the east and think to
take them up for haysecds or pump
kins you will make IL sad mistake

A Gang of Rufhans Creates Havoc in I
Minnesota Town.

ANoKA, Minn., July l4.-Burns, .
town of this county, Is IN fever Vt ex-
citement over the deeds of q iawiess
gang. George Small, wealthy and
prosperous farmer, has been very active
IN his endeavors TO lodge one OF them
behind the bars, and \ warrant was
sworn out against one OF the gang but
WAS never served. The whole popula-
ton OF Burns was terrified and the
gangs action WAS constantly causing
annoyance. The grave crime Of arson
has been laid At their doors several
times. Monday the handsonest resi-
dence of Small WAS set on fire and
af,er q fierce fight by the family
and neighbors the flames were extin-
guished. Wednesday Small was in
Anoka, and In the evening word was
brought to him in the city that his res
idence had been set on fire by unknown
parties and entirely consumed. The
pretty home is q total loss. The sheriff
and citizens will make an endeavor TO
get at the culprits, as things are in
such u condition that no ones life 10
safe and all 60 armed. The deed Is
supposed TO be spite work. Small was
open IN his remarks against the gang.
The home of Thomas German will go
next. So say the Burns people.

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
Colonel Fellows Delivers Patriotic Speech
for Ship.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE house
devoted its time today to conference
reports on appropriations. the legisla-
tive, navsI and diplomatic and consular
bills being agreed to. Mr.. Herbert
moved that the house recede from its
disagreement to the senate amend
ments. the items of contention being
100000 for n new battle ship
and 1000 for naval display
at Hampton roads, Virginia, next
October. He supported these items
and said the compromise was the
best that could be expected. Mr.. Hol-
man( Indiana opposed these
items, and said this government was
fast drifting into dangerous water, and
II these reckless expenditures were not
stopped the treasury would be bank
rupt. He said further that the ba title
ship was not authorized by law. aud he
counseled the house not To lcgislate
without proper authority. MIR. Lodge
tRepuD. icanD OF Massachusetts, appealed
to Tive house to sustain the agreement.
No bester bargain with the senate had
teen made on any bill. He warmly
advocated the building of the battle
ship. which he said was not sufficient,
and he hoped IL would be folled
by others. Mr.. Fellows tdemocraD of
New York spoke earnestly in favor
ot the naval display, and the new ship.

UNDER MARTIAL LAW.
The Town of Homestead Controlled by
the Military Powers.

HOMESTEAD, July H.-(ieneral Snow
den today took complete control of
this town aud the town is practically
under the provision of martial law.
The streets are plcketed by squads OF
armed milltlamen and the state troops
have succeeded the town authorities IN
maintaining order and dispensing JUS
tIce except IN case or actual transgres-
sion against the Borroughs' laws and
the criminal code OF the state. Two
reports circulated cause the only un-
easlness felt during the day. One of
these proved To be true and the other
was erroneous. The rumor that 400 no n
anion workmen were to be brought
To the town IN the afternoon
caused quite gathering around
the railway station and along the
tracks, but the expected "black sheep"
as they are calied) did not appear.
The other report died and the true one
was that Hugh OlDonell had wired At
torpey General Hensel at Harrisburg,
asking what disposition should be made
OF sucn Wlnchesters captured from the
PInkertons as might be recovered.
This action on Mr.. O'DonelPs part WAS
very pleasing to General Snowden, who
anticipated some trouble IN this rela-
ton. Many of the workmen who par
tcipated IN the battle with the Pinker-
ton men nave already ex-
pressed willingness to turn over
captured weapons to the proper
authorities. TINS Willingness is
significant IN showing that there is
little disposition toward another con-
tiIct At arms on the part OF the workers.
They do not fear another INVASION of
Plnkerton men, and II IS almost wholly
against the Pinkertons that their san
guinary instincts are directed. The
congressional iuvestigatlan is believed
here to have settled forever the power
of the great detective agency as an
armed band and the workmen feel
assured that no further attempt
to use the agency's employees will be
made by the Carnegie council after the
matter has been disposed of IN the
house of representatives.
