The Frankfort Capital Of the fith
inst. says: The, senatorial battle
has begun, and Mr.. Carlisle, from
his room in the Capital Hotel,
hears the cries of the populace:
"The king is dead; long live the
king" The clans are gathering,
and the hotel registers show strange
names; new faces are in the lob
bies, while some Of them are old i'm
the ways of politics and senatorial
contests. Here and there self
important parsonage can be seen
with an air of solemnity about him
who thinks he thinks that he knows
all about il, and who, when the
election has passed into the histo-
ry, will assume to have directed it's
movements and planned its result.
This sort of person causes an epi-
demic of that tired feeling, and il
he were to go home and never
como back any more the wheels of
the world would continue to g,
around.
The candidates are not vet in
evidence, but they are within call
ing distance, and when the bell
rings they will appear on the track.
rs Il matter of fact, no man is
yet candidate. There is no vacan-
cy, and it would not be the hest of
taste To offer for Mr.. Carlisle's shoes
while he still wears them. Perhaps,
as this is senatorial matter, toga
would be n neater word than shoes.
The man would be. cruel indeed
who would seek to rob another of
his toga while the thermometer
marks zero. But diplomacy has
many devices, and he is poor
politician who cannot find II way To
make known his wants.
EY-Gov. McCreary has all the
time been counted ms one of the
list of probable candidates, and the
following letter, which was pub
lished in the Louisville Post, indi-
Gates that no mistake was made i'm
the count:

Setter Not Turn Back.

If Mr.. Carlisle would not forever
damn his personal popularity with
the Kentucky politicians, his nc
ccptance of the treasury portfolio
is an assured fact. Hope deferred
mnketh the heart sick, but hope
blighted makoth the heart hard
against the raiser and the blighter,
il he he one and the same.
So sure have they become that
Mr.. Carlisle can if he will. and 80
great is their desire that he will if
he may, that the aspiring politi-
clans of senatorial proportions
have risen en masse throughout
Kentucky and reached forth their
multitudinous hands after that
already half cast off toga.

MOUNTAINS FULL OF MONEY.
The Navajo Indians Have Zealously
Guarded Their Gold Fields.

Guarded Their Gold Fields.
Wm. II. Duncan, editor of the
Tcrre Haute lind. Mail, was con-
nected with the government Indian
agency at Fer Defiance, A. T., for
several years and il we'll acquainted
with the gold fields along the San
Juan river. He says the Indians
have had knowledge of the pr, senc
of gold for many years and that n
few white men have had positive
knowledge of its presence for Il long
time.
The Navajo reservation is nearly
half the size of Indiana, equally
divided north and south by the
boundary line between Arizona
and New Mexico, and bounded on
the north Ivy the San Juan river,
which follows closely the southern
boundaries of Utah and Colorado.
The new FL Dorado is in the north
east corner Of Arizona and in Sec
tion of country where there are
unmistakable evidences of volcanic
upheavals. 1t is torriritorv held
sacred Ivy the Navaios, whose re-
ligious belief is identified with "the
great fire, according to the legend
AIRY story of the eruptions in the
dim past. The Indians in this part
of the reservation are the most in
telligont and at the same time the
most dangerous Of the tribe. They
seldom visit the agency, which is
one hundred miles to the south.
and have always resented the Wis
its of the white men. They are fine
specimens of physical manhood.
independent and very brave. They
are held in check from going on
the warpath by their wealthy pos
sessions. They own vast tlocks of
sheep, II million or more head,
thousands of horses, ahd, being en-
pert workers in silver, have acquir-
ed wealth by the sale of the product
of their hNndicraft. 1t is also
known that there is a large deposit
of coal and oil in this part of the
reservation. one vein of coal seven-
teen feet thick having been discov-
cred. There is also reason to believe
that there is much copper in the
reservation.
Three years ago party of twen-
ty prospectors went into the gold
fields, led by an old-time miner,
who had learned of the presence of
gold from the Indians. Captain
Wash, of the Sixth cavalry, was
sent with troop of soldiers to re-
move the prospectors from the
reservation, but his mission proved
to he of rescue before it was COM
pleted. Had he not gone TO the
rescue of the men there is no doubt
they would have been massacred
by the Indians. There are stories
of venturcsome white men who
went into the San Juan country
who never returned and whose fate
is only matter of conjecture.
For n number of years there
has been moro or less talk of the
schemes of Influential syndicates
to secure the opening OF the resor-
vation. but Mr.. Duncan does not
believe that what has been done
recently on tn" reservation side of
the river was with the connivance
of any one in authority. He thinks
If more likely that the rush into
the reservation was brought about
by those who have secured the best
claims with the ulterior purpose of
one of those conflicts with
the Indians that always result in
The removal of the red men from
the coveted land.

Hog Meat viii 30 Plentiful.

A New Yerk view of the hog
shortrge is thus set forth: "The
statement of the Chicago packers
that the hog famine is due To the
spring rains is all bosh. The whole
amount of it is that Phil Armour
and the other usually long-headed
men got nipped in n little squeeze
operated by such men ~ Charlie
Wright and John Cudahy, of Chr
cage, and now they have not got
the pork and cannot get il. The
speculation in corn which was ear
ried on so extensively put the price
up So high that the farmers thought
it much more profitable to market
their corn than feed il To hogs, So
they killed the animals and .elt
them To market. The result was
that the summer killing increased
about one million head and the
winter supply is short. Then, too,
the opening of foreign markets To-
the American hog had a great deal
10 do with it. Germany and France
tried to force our porkers out by
cutting their home prices and wa
cut under them and flooded the
market. The only difference here
is the increased price To consumers,
as there is no speculation. New
York does not speculate in provis-
ions and let's futures, as far M they
are concerned, severely alone. Tho
supply is gradually increasing,
however, and will soon be all right.

When the city council on July

23rd, 1892, "To provide ways and

Colonel Breckenridge's satisfaction

twenty-five miles removed from
San Antonio, when and where, as
many attorneys here know, the
following took place:
Two young men, one charged
with theft of COW the other with
theft of watch, had their cases set
for the same day. The young man
charged with the theft of the watch
was somewhat of a rag, and when
he employed San Antonio lawyer
he gave him a watch as a retaining
fee, $50 that he would not have to
defend him on tick" About that
time, every one acquainted with
this, would ask the waggish client,
"What time is it:" He had pleas
ant answer to every question,
until the man with the cow
case asked it, when he
SNAPPED at him "It's time for you to
milk your cow" Both got a ver-
dict of mot guilty." and when one
of the brothers of the watch man
congratulated him, he added, 81

promptly, "relieved Of all know
ledge of time and 1913 of all my
filthy lucre. When he was ask
ed about his colleague, he said,
"Why that fellow will be on a COW
trail for years before he looses
sight Of his first heifer."
Still it may be that the welfare
of this city is so dear to the
Colonels legal force that it will be
very cheap to him.

Almost Murders His Children.

FosTORIA, Ohio, July 14.-Word
has just reached this city, of hor-
rible case of paternal cruelty, at
Pemberville, a small town north of
this city. William Cook, section
foreman, went home in beastly
drunken condition and went to the
bed, where his four children were
sleeping, and made a murderous
assault upon them with a mattOck
handle. The crazy father picked
one Of the children up and dashed
him against the wall, intiicting in
juries that will probably prove
fatal. Two or more of the children
will die. The entire village is up
in arms, and there is strong talk Of
lynching Cook.

MARRIAGE A FAILURE.
Two Divorce Suits Filed in the Dis
trict Court.

Marriage proved a failure to
Margaret BrannOn, and she conse-
quently prays for a divorce from
her husband, Robert Brannon, a
carpenter. The suit is to be tried
in the Forty-fifth district court, at
the next term. They We're married
on April 10, 1882, in Nueces
county, and have resided in
San Antonio the past twelve
months. They formerly lived in
Del Rio, where the husband is
said to have abused his wife out
rageously. In December, 1891, be-
fore daylight, on a bitter cold
morning, Brannon compelled his
wife to get up from bed, whence
she was confined by illness, and
milk fifteen cows. She became
exhausted and was carried home
by her friends. When Bran
non became aware of this he
expressed himself in most in
human manner and showed in
difference in respect of the con-
dition of his wife. He is a strong
and healthy man and would per-
nit his wife to go out in the early
morning and milk twenty and
thirty cows, while he remained
comfortably in bed.
The wife alleges that he has
treated her in a similar
cruel manner almost con-
stantly since they were married.
The wife prays that she have
custody and control of William,
boy nine years old, the only issue
of the land that her maid
en- name, Margaret Frankenburg,
be restored to her.
