Tvolutioa of tho NegIlre Shir..

, When the neglire shirt first became popular. says the Philadelphia Record. it was ca flannel o- silk shirt wi,ha soft collar and no cuiss to speak of. Its object was to relieve g man of wearing starched boSolns and collars and cuffs in hot weather, when they are not only uncomfortable but likely Co wilr down from perspiration ana give the wearer a slovenly appearance. Now, however, the only difference iS found in the color. The neglirc shirt is as stiff as a board and the collar even stifcr, so arc the cuifs- h fact it isn't neglige at an. The same thing applies to the russct shoe When it first came out it's chief advantage lay in the assertion that it wasn't uccessary to have it shiucl every cay CT so. Some one, however. hll % invent a patent polish fo- tlc nc-liEc shoe, and it costs more Co shine that than it does a regular black shoe.

NOT A SUICIDE.
Theo. Decker Dies From Kidney
Trouble, Not Morphine.

Monday morning Theodore Deck
or, well known to many San Ante
mans, having resided here for the
past sixteen years, was taken i'll at
his stopping place on Garden street
and a physician was summoned,
who worked with him sever
al hours, finding it impossible
to save him. About six
o'clock that evening he eX-
pired and the general belief
was that he had taken a large
dose of morphine with the intent
to end his life. Several physicians
were present at the time of his
death and it was impossible to at
once ascertain the cause. a post
mOrtum examination was held and
it was plain to be seen that Decker
had been a suffer from Bright'S
disease for years which had be-
come chronic. This is given as the
cause of the death by his physician.
For three weeks Decker has
been on a drunken spree and in
endeavoring to sober up he found
it almost impossible without the
aid of a soothing drug. He pur-
chased some morphine and took a
large dose thinking he would rest
easy while getting over such a
prolonged debauch. 1t was at
that time the unfortunate man was
suddenly taken with his life last
ing disease and the result was
death.

SHEOL IN KANSAS.
The Governor Calls Out the Militia
Riot Imminent.

Riot Imminent.
TOPEKA, Ks. Feb. l5.-Special-At
10 a. III. Governor Llewellyn has
called out the state militia to eject
members of the Republican House
from the hall of representatives,
where they have just effected forci-
bic entrance through the doors
barred by the Populists, by means
of sledge hammers. Riot is immi-
nent.
TOPEKA, Feb. l5.-Riot is immi-
nent between republicans and pop
lists in the hall of representatives.
The long expected crisis has ar
rived, and there now seems no way
to prevent a dangerous clash be-
tween the two parties. When the
Republicans went to enter the hall
of representatives this morning at
10 o'clock, they found the doors
had been barred. The were barred
by the POpulists. The Republican
leaders soon determined to force
an entrance, and sledge hammers
were secured for this purpose.
They were used with such eff
feet upon the doors of the side
entrance leading to the hall that
they were soon demoliShed,and the
members of the Republican House
filed in quickly through it and en-
tered the hall. Had the Populist
IIouCn hnnn in SaSSipn n conflict
would surely have resulted, but
fortunately the Populist House
yesterday adjourned until | o'clock
today,and consequently was not in
session at that time. AS soon
as it became known by the
pOpulists what had occurred
Governor Llewellyn was noti-
fed. He promptly called out the
militia and instructed them to
proceed to the hall and eject the
members of the Republican House
from the floor. The soldiers star
ted on their mission. The Repub-
leans being informed of the action
of the Governor held a hurried
conference to determine upon
what course Of action to pursue. No
definite plan was decided upon but
individual Republicans are try
ing as this is being writ
ten to induce the Santa Fe
railway to call out its shopmen to
oppose the militia in ejecting re-
publicanS from the hall. 1t is not
yet known whether they will sue
coed.
Other industries, known to be in
sympathy with the Republicans,
were also asked to furnish men for
the same purpose. Down stairs
the POpuliStS We're not idle. Com
pany c, a local militia company,
which Adjutant General Artz had
notified last night to stand in
readiness, was already on the
ground, and orders were tele-
graphed to HOlton and Marion for
companies.
Both the Populists and Repub-
licans are appointing additional
ACCOMPLISHMENTS and telegraph
ing to their friends over the state
for assistance. Should clash Oc-
cur much blood may be split.
