SUGAR IN GOOD DEMAND.
Kansas City Almost Compelled to Go
Unsweetened.

KANSAS CRY, August 20. - The
sugar trust squeezed Kansas City
during the past week, and from Thurs.
day until this morning not a bit Of that
commodity could be bought at the
wholesale houses. AS a consequence
the supply at the retail grocery stores
was exhausted. Several wholesale
houses received small consignments of
granulaied sugar this morning and the
trouble is over for a time.
The agents Of the sugar trust have
been acting as dispensers for this city
and have been in the habit Of selling
direct from the cars. This is the fruit
season and there has been so great a
d mind that their supply was ex
hausted, and for the first time in
months wholesale men this morning
received shipments in carload lots from
the refneries at San Francisco.

THE CYCL0RAMA PEOPLE.
WANT THE OLD BAND IN
CHICAGO.
1t Will Have All Expenses Paid and
Get All Profits From Outside
Engagements.

News comes by the Australia that
the Cyclorama Company has sent a
proposition to the old Hawaiian Band
to come to Chicago The Oceanic
Steamship Company has agreed to give
the band free passage up and back
again; the Occidental hotel has offered
free board and lodging while en-
route, and the Cyclorama Company
has offered free lodgings and to be
responsible for all their expenses dur
ing the period OF the Fair; agreeing to
secure all available pay engagements
for the band and give them all the pro
fits. As the band boys are not in funds
and their cash receipts will not begin
until after they reach Chicago a pubic
subscription will be asked to defray their
expenses over and and to give the boys
a fund for incidental expenses and so
that they Can leave their families some
thing on going away.
In a private letter Mr. Thurston
says: "lhis pr position is intended as
pro bono PHblico one for the benefit
Of Hawaii. There is no politics in it
one way or the other. Mr. ]. ID.
Spreckels his joined heartily in the
effort to bring them over, and there is
no reason why the eX Queen and Presi-
dent Die should MT head the list of
subscribers toward the expenses, if
they choose t. do So. Itoink it would
be good idea if they would, as it is
good opportunity to show that whether
We are Munarchists or Annex ltionlSts
we are all Hawaiiaus, uniting our.
Efforts for Hawai,'s good.
The Cyclorama Comp ny does not
seek to make any profit out of the
band, otherwise than as it may be in
cIdentally benefited by its presence
when pay engagements are not avail
able, and stands in the financial breach
in case sufficient pay engagements are
not obtained to cover expenses. hope
that the proposition vii be accepted
by the band and the Community in the
spirit in which it is made, and that it
will receive hearty support of non
partisan character which will serve to
soften some Of the antagorisms of the
late unpleasantneSs."
The offers made by the Oceanic
Company, the Occidental hotel and
the Cyclorama Company are certainly
most liberal, and there should be no
difficulty in securing subscriptions for
the comparatively small amount needed
for the overland trip and Incidental ex-
penseS.
Mr.. Geo. c, Beckley has volunteered
his services in accompanying the band
to Chicago and attending to the bust
ness arrangements en- route. He re.
turned by the Australia for this pur
pose. After the Fair is over the band
will probably make tour, playing at
various cities throughout the country,
to the benefit of this country as mat
ter of advertisement, and of themselves
financially
Success to the proposition. May
the band so to Chic5gn, with Mr.
Berger, its old leader and longtime
friend, as its leader. 1t is understood
that the Subscriptions in aid Of this
purpose aggregated $500 in San Fran
cisco alone. and that Mr. Beckley has
secured a similar sum here this morn

What Mr. Blount Says About the Com
ing Hawaiian Boom.

The New York SIN prints this
double loaded editorial in the issue of
August 2ad
We have not doubt that ex.Mn-
lister Blount, who has returned from
Hawaii, is justified in the remark thai
there will be boom ia the islands,
which must enliven all branches of
business, as soon as certain matters now
in contemplation go through" The
chief matter to go through is the an
nexation Of the islands, so that Ameri
can law shall be extended over them
and permanent peace and order shall
be established in them When this is
brought about there will surely be a
boom in Hawaii.

MRS. PEARsoN's STATEMENT.
Plitsbnrg Headlight.

Mrs. Pearson does not have much TO
say Of the late escapade, any more
than she claims that Vernon had com.
plele control of her aud been slyly
weaving the coils around her ever
since last Easter Sunday. He would
preach divine marriage 10 her, and tell
her that was the only real marriage
law. and that the marriage law on
earth was all bosh. She says that he
claimed lie was not united to his wife
by divine law, and neither was she
(meanimg Mrs. Pearson) united TO her
husband by divine law, and that the
atfinisies existing between the two
unions was themselves tor each other,
and that he continued to talk this, aud
finally plead with her until in an in
sane moment she consented. Both
parties are very penitent now that
they are caught, aud it is probable
that they little thought when they
started out on their little outing trip
thar i, would end so disastrously aud
in such short time.

TWO PICTURES.

By special request we publish the
following, which appeared In the Phil
adelphia Weekly Press of July ID:
Last week an invalid soldier was led up
to the pension office In Boston to receive
the pension the government had granted
him for total disability. His name is Jo-
seph King, and he Is blind and deaf as a
result Of getting In the way of rebel
shell which exploded near him when he
was serving his country on Roanoke Is
land. He has also troublesome wound
In his hip, where rebel bullet plowed Its
way through his body. He was given a
pension for total disability, but when he
asked for his money last week he was
told that he could not have 1t because
Hokc Smith, secretary of the interior,
had ordered that his pension should be
suspended.
At the same time that this disabled sol.
dicr. who is 81 years old and grandson
OF the commander Of the privateer
Growler in the war Of 1872, was led away
from the pension office penniless, the man
who stopped his money was, where? On
the way to enjoy II luxurious vacation IN
the Yellowstone park. Let the demo.
cratic St. Paul Globe tell the story:
"lion. nokc Smith OF Georgia, secre-
tary of the department Of the interior IN
President Clcveland's cabinet, arrived III
st. Paul yesterday morning. In the sec
retary's party besides himself are his
wife and three children, Marion, Il bright

and mother; Miss May Hull Of Athens
Ga; Miss COrnelia Jackson, the lady who
had the honor of representing Georgia ut
the worlds fair; Claude \. Bennett, pri-
vate secretary, and two servants"
MIR. HOke Smith informed Globe re.
porter that lie was travelling to Yellow
stone park, and that he was delighted
with all that he had seen on the journey.
He draws his salary regularly from the
government and Is probably travelling
deadhead on the railroads, The loss and
suffering Joseph King will have to endure
by being deprived OF the only means OF
support he and his invalid wife have Will
not detract from the enjoyment OF the
man who ordered the money stopped.
The two events, however, form picture
such as the world has never seen before.
The men who tried to destroy the govern
nent now control 1t and have ut their
mercy the men who fought to save the
same government from destruction.

WHO Is RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS.

WHO Is KESPONSlBLE tOk IhAS:
The following dispatch from Chica-
go to the Kansas City Times has ref
crcnce TO the Sites brothers, who
were at one time in the real estate
business in Joplin, aud who are well
known by many Baxter people:
civilian and Edward Sites are
brothers and wealthy real estate deal
ers of Wichita, Kansas. They are
twins, and in addition are so much
alike that people who have known
them intimately for years constantly
mistake one for the other In the
same town lived two school teachers,
who were sisters and twins. The four
met, fel! in love and were married by
the same preacher ut the same time.
The gentlemen were dressed alike
and so were the ladies. The preacher
got little mixed and had TO refer to
his notes, but the high contracting
parties are satisfied. The father of
the young men presented them with
colts that were twins. Twins have
come into those two households, and
II is gravely asserted that each set OF
twins cannot be determined from the
other. They have all four been in one
house and the visiting mother has
been unable 10 tell her own little ones.
These eight twins are coming TO see
the fair. At the hotel are two negro
boys. twins. who are to be assigned es-
pecially to wait on them. Complica.
lions are looked for.
