had penetrated eye first through fully

deal OF pain from the accident 1t is
believed he was striking at something

Brief CHATS About Matters Important and

That's something you seldom see out
in Colorado" said Henry Wilson, OF
Denver, yesterday, as a reporter picked
up a cent at the postoffice stamp win
dow after buying seven ''twos." "The
one cent coin has a very restricted cir
culation out my way, and few people
think about pennies or care to be bother
ed with them. II you have any change
coming TO you, you get 1t in stamps. When
the three cent postage stamps were in
existence a man laying down a nickle
and getting one, or dime and getting
three, never thought about the change,
and the clerk never thought OF tender
ing it to him. One man once made a
kick for three cents In change due him
at the postoffice window He got II,
but he was known as Three-cent AYres
for years"

Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1893-11-23
Nov. 8, 1893.

The Kansas City Star, having run
out of eulogistic Princess Ruth soap
has turned it's attention for the mo-
meut to the Princess Of Wales Its
late issue contains a portrait ana
eulogy of that grand and noble
woman Since the readers OF the
Star have been instructed by that
journal on the merits Of princesses'
including Princess Ruth, it is aston
ishing how the people of the United
States have so long done without a
princess. The favorable mention IN
the Star of royal blood has made us
yearn for at least a third-cIass king
and two or three princes and
nrincesses. We are like the Child
rem of Israel, who could see no good
in Judges, and demanded of the Al
mighty that he give them king
like other natious. The Almighty,
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1893-11-23

in the face Of His better judgment,
gave to the IsraeIItes, for king, Saul
the Kish. Saul was first-ciass
fraud, all but his stature, which
didn't count when the Philistiues
got the drop on him. We recite
this little bit of history for the bene-
fit of the Star, so that when that
journal finally selects kings and
princes for the people of the United
States, it does not fall into a trap
like the Israelites, who got a big
king, but a crazy king with no
brains.
