Bureau of Information.

"The Burlington" has recently estab-
lished in convenient quarter of its ele-
CANT and commodious passenger station,
at Chicago. an Office designed to afford
travellers information on the thousand
and one things they need to know, with
regard to routes, rates, connections and
accommodations. 1t has been placed in
charge of an experienced man, supplied
with all railway guides, maps and time
tables, and is known as the Bureau of
Information"
1t is place to which all travellers may
apply for information and receive a fair
and correct answer. This is the only
Office of the kind west of the sea-board
cities, and it cannot but prove a help
and convenience to the travelling public.
All trains Of the Burlington" enter and
depart from this station, and the intelli-
gent and valuable service of the Bureau
may be enjoyed by all patrons of this
line.
A special pamphlet will be issued by
the Burlington" in the near future, Civ
ing accurate information as to ''How to
get to the Worlds fair grounds" Glow
to secure rooms and board at the various
hotels, boarding and lodging houses"
Trustworthy agents will be at the O.,
B. & @. depot in Chicago, to impart all
information to visitors. Arrangements
will probably be made by which some
trains will be run direct to the Worlds
Fair grounds without change or delay.

China Wedding.

A very enjoyable time was had at the
residence of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin
Mapes, on last Saturday evening, Sep
TENDER Both, 1893, the occasion being
the Goth anniversary of their marriage.
A huge surprise was gotten up in the
way of house full of good natured
neighbors.
The presents consisted of a beautiful
set of china dishes, which, after boun-
tiful supper, were presented to the host
and hostess by E. d. Wheeler in so neat
little speech that we wish to refer es-
pecially to that portion wherein he ex-
pressed the hope that they might always
be blessed with an abundance of the
good things of life, and that their neigh
bors might also enjoy these dishes with
them sometimes. This was the tender
place that hit us, and we could hardly
refrain from exclaiming, so mote it be.
After a song, "Just Twenty Years
Ago." by the Misses Mapes, good nights
were said and all went away feeling that
the evening had been well spent.

KANSAS NOTES.
(Star.)

The Clifton Times has nestled its head
under its wing for this winter.
The first Santa Fe bonds voted twenty
years ago by Topeka fall due in sixty
days.
A Populist paper in Jerry Simpsons
town made $50 errors in publishing the
delinquent tax list this fall.
One of the St. Joseph train robbers
began his career of crime early in life.
He was born in East Atchison
William s. Ruggles, son of the late
Robert M. Ruggles, was married yester-
day at Emporia to Miss Emma A. Myers.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jerry Simpson, of Medi-
cine Lodge, Kansas, temporarily residing
in Washington D. O., are names on a

honor that he should cherish as precious
Ibis discharge by order of the pop court.
A Russell young man is ''clerk in the
live stock department at the World IS
fair" according to the Record. That
paper, however, does not say whether
he is employed by the pitchfork or by
the curry comb bureau.
The charge that Lewelling drank wine
in the Kansas building at Chicago is
more serious than the charge that he
writes poetry. The wine drinking can
be proven; but he can offer his verse in
evidence and fling the lie that it is
poetry in the face of his accusers if they
crowd him.

A recent Arkansas affray brought
into notice a woman known as "Sorrel
Sue" She always appeared in public
riding a sorrel horse. 1t was believed
she belonged to gang who stole hors
es. A surgeon who was summoned to
attend one Of her admirers, who had
been wounded in the row, mistook his
way and wandered into Sues cabin.
Before he could be hustled ont he saw
things which reused his suspicious.
These he reported to a sheriff, who,
with a posse, managed to surround the
den of horse thieves, captured Sue and
two of her gang. He found that Sue
had applied the means of bleaching her
own hair to that of her horses. When
the posse entered, they found horse
developed in jacket made of rubber
coats, being treated to sulphur vapor
bath. The appliances were very in
genious, and worked very well. A
black or bay horse would be stolen and
run into the bleachery. After its color
was changed and its name and tail
trimmed, the disguise became so pro-
nounced that without any great risk the
animal could be taken in daylight
through the very district from which it
to not only superintend the bleaching,
but also to ride the animal out Of the
country.
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1893-03-16

OF THE 267 electoral votes cast for
Mr.. Cleveland in the recent election,
1873 were from the northern and west
ern states and 139 from the southern
states. An odd number could not have
been divided any more evenly. Four
years hence the northern and western
states will furnish the majority of
electoral votes for the democratic
president, and the cry of 1.-THE solid
south" dominating the democratic
party will be heard no more in the land.
