Caraway's article on bad Billy
Bush" in the Register of last week, is
only another illustration of the con-
temptible cowardice of the fellow. He
picks out one man whom he has some
personal spite against, or whom he has
beeu hired to abuse through his paper.
and gives his entire attention to lying
about the circumstances surrounding
the case. We are not defending MIR.
Bush or anyone else who takes his
chances with the law against him; but
certainly think CarawaY has gone out
of his legitimate newspaper province
| to persecute an individual.

FRANK ROSE, Supt.

A newly married couple occupied a
sleeping breth on Santa Fe train
going to Kansas City, the other night.
Their billing and cooling was dove-like
and attracted the attention of some
and distracted others. Finally the
lady said: "I'm going to get me a
drink of water. When I start back
stick your foot out of the berth so
won't make a mistake" When she
turned to come back every berth in
the car had toot sticking out of it. :.

HOLIDAY AT COLUMBUS.
Tho Dukes Arrival and Republican State
Convention Made Things Lively.

The Dukes Arrival and Republican State
Convention Made Things Lively.
COLUMBUS, o., June 9-With the Duke
OIL Neragua as the city's guest and Re-
publican state convention in full blast
this city has been unusually lively.
The convention unanimously renomi-
mated Governor William Mckinley for
governor and reaflirmed its faith in the
principles of the Republican party-Mc-
hinley bill and all. The most remarkable
enthusiasm was shown throughout the
meeting.
The Duke Of Veragua and party, escort
ed by Commander Dickens, representing
the president of the United States. arrived
here and were escorted by the Barracks
band and officers OF the Fourteenth regi-
ment and the ,Iunia Hussars mounted in
full uniform, to the handsome mansion of
Henry L. Chittenden, whose guest the
ducal party will be during their stay in
Columbus.
A sensational event marked the close of
the school children's parade in honor of
the duke. The dukes brother was stricken
with angina pectoris and fell PROSTATE on
the grand stand. He suffered frightful
agony, and the attack seemed likely to
result fatally owing to the terrific jam Of
spectators and the inability of the author
ties to force back the people and give the
nobleman air. Bishop Watterson stood
ready to administer the last sacrament
An electric battery was brought into OPP.
Grafton by the physicians who had been
called, however, and the necessity for
action by the bishop gradually disap-
peared. The attack was probably brought
on by the excitement of the day, the cheer
ing and tumtilt in the convention which
nominated Governor Mckinley and the
remarkable sight of the procession of
school children, which proved to be miles
in length
