PAT ANpTHE JrpGE

Pat Healy was called upon by bis coun-
try twice yesterday TO serve IL in the ca
pacity OF juror. Judge Reed OF the dis
trlct court needed an Intelligent gentle
man to assist eleven Others to try case.
and, very naturally, he sent the baibh
after Pat The latter was busy talking
Kansas property TO an eastern investor,
and did not arrive At the court house IN
time 30 try the case; so, when be got there
Judge Reed informed him that he had
contempted the court-a little matter
which would cost him So. No man with
Mr. Healy's first name WAS ever known to
fail IN weighing himself out OF little dif-
ficulty OF this kind so he walked up TO the
judge, iunoceetiy admitted that he dido Z
have a red cent and asked for the loan of
the money with which TO pay the fine.
The judge looked upon Pats nerve with
admiration. opened up his big book, wrote
RENTED" in the front Of Pats name and
sent him off with u request that he be
more prompt IN answering the summons
of a court in the future. Pas wandered
down town and into the United States
court where he was sitting just two min
utes when the United States marshal
pressed him into Il jury to Try the Stanley
Jacobs murder case.

A CRIMINAL CAUGHT.

w. NJ. Bybee is safe in the Se0gwick
county jail to answer to the charge of
stealing a revolver and $40 in money from
Charles HOPKINS, guest of the Goodyear
hotel. in November Z, 1891. The man was
arrested the next day and on his examina-
ton before his honor, A. K. Musseller was
held on bail in the sum Of $500, for his ap-
pearance in the district court to answer
said charges. Mr.. John Goodyear. be-
lieving in Bybee's innocence. became his
bondsman, but fearing to stand trial ana
knowing his guilt, fled and his bond was
forfeited Bybee went to Fort Worth,
Tex, where he was located by Sergeant
Bedford Wood of the police force, who IN
duced him to return to this city. AT the
time of Bybee's return he pretended that
he had contracted q severe cold ON his
lungs and owing to his condition his
bondsmen refrained from putting him in
jail under promise that he would not
leave his room at the hotel without Good
years consent 1t developed that Bay bee
had been shamming sickness, and soon
after fed to parts unknown. The
matter was then placed in the
hands of Captain j. c. Foster
with instructions to secure bis capture.
He has worked untiringly ever since.
About six months ago be was located at
Winfield, but when Foster arrived there,
Bybee had flown. After liberal expend-
iture of money, he was finally located at
Wellington. Mr.. Foster being empaneiied
on the jury of the federal court now IN
session, could not 90 after him, but the
papers were issued and yesterday morning
he was finally landed in Jail.
Mr. Goodyear is loud in his praises OF
the Wellingt on aud Sumner county Off
GERS for their assistance.
Bybee prior to his arrest, was section
hand Oh the Southern Kansas railroad, be-
tween Wellington and Oxford, the last
place any one who was acquainted with
his habits would have looked for him. He
is now safe for some time to come and will
shortly take trip to Lansing, Kan, TO
inspect the coal mines there, in the service
of his state. The only sympathy expressed
is for his wife and child.

IN THE SIXTH WARD.

The weekly gathering of demopops held
its senace at Hyde park last night. The
League" can be praised for its perserver-
ance. il for nothing else. 1t does not give
up on account of small attendance. pre-
dominance of Republicans at the outdoor
meetings, or the presence of all the small
boys and girls of the neighoorhood en-
gagged in boisterous games that render the
words Of any but the strongest voiced
speaker indistinguishahle. 1t is really
pathetic to see the efforts that are being
put forth by the populists to lessen the
Republicans strength IN the ward. and it
is significant that their meetings and work
have been, SO far, without preceptible eff
feet except as the speeches made have
revealed the fallacies of the D. D. argu-
ments, and the alleged demonstrations
their alarming weakness. The Sixth
ward is one of the strongest Alliance wards
in the city, yet at the meeting last night,
notwithstanding the attraction of the
presence of one of the candidates upon the
state ticket who had been advertised to
speak, the scattering of handbills announc
ing the meeting, and the posting of
notices inviting general attendance. the
crowd was but little larger than those that
have been in attendance before; and con-
tanned fewer voters than that of last week.
There was no enthusiasm shown. and the
gathering was encouragement to even
the most hopeful rather than stimulus
to work along the same line, Were the
music Withdrawn, it is not probable that
twenty people would come to listen to the
speaking The absence this year of the
weekly concerts which were given by the
band last summer has deprived the resi-
dents of the eastern part Of town
of these pleasant treats except
upon league meeting nights,
and many avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity of listening TO the music who have
no sympathy with the calamity cause. On
the whole, if the meetings of the Peoples
party throughout the county are like those
which have been held in Hyde park, the
Republicans need have no fear of the result
of the November election.
The speakers last night were B. E. kies,
who took occasion to try to explain his
census statements made during his recent
debate with Mr. Mu.eller and which were
so mercilessly shown to be misleading. and
to handle the main proposition of govern
ment ownership of railroads almost as
lightly and cautiously as he did the SUBJ
treasury plan during the debate just men
toned: Irwin Stratton, whose chief re-
marks were personal reflections upon his
opponent, Mr.. Naftzger; and Willard
Boone.
Like all Peoples party orators, they
spent good dea, of time in fighting the
sham battle" of the tariff.
Mr. Gaines, the candidate for state SUI
perintendent, did not appear, he evidently
desiring to find more promising fields for
the swinging of his yote-gathering cradle.

THE CHOLERA.

DR.. Jones of this city was at one time a
victim of the cholera. and 1t is interesting
to hear him speak about It. 1t was when
he was medical student at Lexington,
ny. When the cholera broke out there
the doctor thought he would distinguish
himself by experimenting with the
patients and finding a remedy for the
dread disease, but the first thing he knew
he was in its grip himself. He says it is
disease that Will slip up on IA fellow at n
time, usually, when he thinks he is per-
fectly safe. During the critical period OF
the disease he was under the influence of
opiates, and consequently he did not know
how badly he felt what miseries lie SUI
fered. The doctor was in a cholera infect
ed region twice, the first time being in
1888 when he was four years Old.
Describing the appearance of things
during an epidemic OF cholera,
he said: ''You have no idea
what woe begone appearance things
assume. All the rich people leave the city
and none but the poor stay 10 battle with
the Obstructive monster. The stores are
ali closed except where tobacco, cigars
and whisky are sold, aud the liveliest
things one sees are the hearses moving
about and winding their ways towards
the cemeteries. The streets are Is quiet
as the grave, and the few one will en-
counter moving about have long faces,
will eye you with suspicion and slip care

some horrid monster. The country peo-
pie will not come to town. and If a town
citizen goes out in the country he will be
met with shotgun aud ordered 10 return

Nothing will be heard but the moaning of
widows aud the crying OF children, aud
the genius of desolation will reign supreme.

UNITED STATES COURT.

The business done in the United States
court yesterday was not OF any general in
terest except the verdict rendered in the
ment Of the case Of the United States
against Stanley, Jacobs and Beers
Fred Segerman was charged with per-
jury committed during the las; Septem-
Der term of the district court in the case
of the United States against Jake Pecora.
His attorneys Colonel HalIowell and Tom
McMechan fought hard to keep him from
going behind the bars. but the evidence
was too strong against him and the jury
returned a verdict of guilty against him
yesterday. He has not vet been Sent enced
Stanley, Jacobs aud Beers are charged
with the murder of Frank Brady AT FL
Reno nearly three years ago.
They. with two others, were tried
in the United States court here
last September and in the case of the three
parties named the jury disagreed, while
the two others were discharged At that
time Stanley and Jacobs had been in Jail
about eighteen months but were allowed
to give bail and have since been free
There is something novel about their
careers since, notwithstanding the serious
charges against them. Stanley, immedi-
ately upon his release. became a hotel
clerk: Jacobs became "A deputy United
States marshal and succeeded in making
several important arrests. He also mar
ried the young lady to whom he was en-
gagged before Brady was killed and now he
has a nice farm in the territory. The case
of Charles Beers is still more novel. He
was elected mayor of FL Reno, the city
in which he is accused of committing the
murder, aud is at the present time the
regular nominee of the Republican party
of the county for the office of sheriff. The
only progress made in the case so far is the
empanelling OF jury.
Two parties were fined for contempt of
court.

'Yes, but why do you make it s., 600, 0OO.-
600, why not make it So"
Why he said, cit is just as easy to
stands for the universe, and we can buy
it if We make money this way
The senator said the man was being
taken to the county seat to be examined
for sanity, and he was after careful ex-
animation sent to the asylum.
Now he said, II would but
reflect as to the difference between this
man and PETER. A jury of sane men sends
this nan 10 the insane asylum, while a
jury Of insane men sends PETER to the
United States senate.
The senator showed the fallacy of the
legislation on the freight question by the
and arguments that the interstate law
was limit to any act or law reaching out
beyond the state. We cannot enact law
to become operative in an adjacent state,
and, without this, the maximum freight
bill is but verbiage and of no efect-worse
than useless.
His argument as to the increase OF our
trade with foreign nations was conclusive.
He showed the reduction of commodities
in all branches of manufact ured articles,
and that the farmer was only laying the
land marks for the future destruction of
business by the absurd doctrines taught
in this Alliance organization. He showed
that it cultured socialism and invoked a
cry for the division Of property. and. il
not seen in :his generation, would ulti-
mately destroy republican and democratic
governments. While we are increasing
in productive resources, and often
had great surplus, so were
the South American states, and
Cuba. yes all countries south OF the equa-
tor as well as the civiled world. Railroad
building and pathways for commerce had
increased over 100 per cent since 1879. The
Suez canal yearly carried millions of tons
of freight, and the policy of having the
chief markets OF the world open to Amer
lean competitors was the policy of the Re-
publican party, and we must legislate for
this purpose and this end.
The senator's speech was close and
logical one, and showed him familiar with
all the questions of the day. His audience
was deeply interested md entertained.
