A Youthful Burglar.

Ernest Smiley, very ragged and
dirty tramp boy, IA years old, was ar
rested on last Friday noon just as
he stepped off the blind baggage at
Burlington, for burglarizing the hotel
of Miss Louisa Allen, near the Rock
Island round house in this city.
Friday morning he was seen lOafing
near the hotel. and during the absence
of Miss Allen he effected an entrance
in the rear of the hotel, when he i'm
mediately proceeded to appropriate a
good suit of clothes, underwear and
shoes belonging to one of the boarders,
Leaving his old ragged clothes.
He was brought back from Burling-
ton by w. K. Brown, who was out there
attending court.
At his preliminary trial Friday even
ing he plead guilty, giving as his rea-
son that his clothes we're all in rags
and that he nearly froze for the lack
of warm clothes and when he had a
chance to dress warmer, even in some
one else's clothes he took advantage of
it. He was lodged in the county Jail to
wait for the November term of the dis
trict court.
He is a bright and intelligent lad
and would perhaps make good citi-
zen if taken in charge by the right
kind of man. He says his home is IN
Chicago where his father is engaged in
the grocery business; and that his
father and mother had separated. He
will, perhaps, be sent to the reform
school

cnIoneI Thomas. sneec,,-

Hon. G. A. Thomas, the noted Grim
inaI lawyer of Denver, spoke last Sat
urday night in the opera house to a
large and very attentive audience on
the free and unlimited coinage of sill
YER. He handled his subject with skill
and logic, and was very convincing,
bringing statistics In to- show that all
he said was indisputable. He gave a
history of the financial legislation for
the past 80 years. He told his audien-
ce how the finance had been legislated
out of the hands of the few. Then he
gave history Of silver from its earliest
date so many up to the present time
showing that it has been one of the
greatest factors In trade between ma
tions. Among other things he stated
that when silver was demonetized In
1873; that farm products commenced
declining in prices and was still going
down, for this he gave incontroveritable
facts.
How anyone, after listening to the
mastery speech made by Mr.. Thomas,
can be anything else but free silver
man is beyond the comprehension Of
any sane man. In speaking Of the I'm
ance Of nations he said history Wos1Id
bear him out In the assertion that
when q nations money was contracted
commerce, arts, wealth and freedom
disappeared. The crumbling of insti-
tuti0ns viii keep even step and race
with the shrinkage IN the stock Of
money and the falling of prices; that
the demonstration Of silver by con
gress IS it was effected IN 1878 isthe
monumental grime Of this century. II

Politics and ..The Parsons" Dog.

The editor of The GooDLAND REPUB
Lie is known all over western Kansa:
as 'The Parson." He owns a dos
which has been taught some tricks
and when l saw him going through hi:
performances, it forcibly reminded mG
of the members of the old parties, anC
suggested the following lines:
The Parson'' owns mongrel cur,
Not marked by any breed,
But he's as full of push and stir
AS any dog has need.
And has been taught some funny tricks
By which he tells his politics.
The rarson" says to him: Now Brave,
Sit up like any man,
And show us how you would behave
The dog regards him with scowl,
And only answers with growl.
well, then. if you object to that
And II makes you feel warm,
Perhaps you Democrat,
And stuck on tariff reform?"
The dog not only fercely growIed,
But lifted up his voice and howledi
'Ahai that gives you dead away
Though you may be a growler,
Still any one can plainly see
You're calamity howleri''
The dog looked up and winked and sneezed,
And wagged his tail as though we'll pleased.
IF you're Peoples party man
Straight ont without flaw
And would not vote Republican,
Then let me shake your paw
The dog agreed to this condition,
And shook hands like politician.
Perhaps this may to some appear
A silly auecdote
Were it not that once every year
Men who go up to vote,
Are managed IN their politics,
Like this dog IN his funny tricks.
The habit force of party zeal.
Has no more sense OF reason,
And tn rank and file are made to feel,
! Departure would be treason,
And like this dog their places hil
And answer to their masters will.

a 121@-cent magazine selling for so and
rs cents, and many hundreds were even
sold at 81 each. Probably the record
remains without parallel, in periodi-
cal sales, of number proving SO inter
esting that, after 211, 900 copies had
been sold, the News company had or
ders for $4,000 more than they could
supply, while dealers in various parts
of the country, discovering the esteem
in which the magazine was held, i'm
mediately raised their prices to double,
treble, quadruple and in many cases to
eight times the regular price. The
publishers do not yet know what their
circulation is, owing to the limited ca
pacity of their presses, but machinery
is being put in place which will supply
an edition for December exceeding
100000 and during that month it will
be possible to determine just how
many Cosmopolitans the public will
buy.

Rrnka Hail

Ernest Smiley, the boy burglar, has
gone from us, having forced his way
out of the county dungeon. He pried
off piece of board from a shelf and
went to work at the bars in the door
leading into the sheriff's office and
succeeded in springing them out of
their sockets, and bending them en-
dow. He left a note thanking the
officers for their kind treatment and
the new wearing apparel they we're
forced to buy for him and advised
them hereafter to shut Chicago kids in
the cell at night. He has not yet been

was done secretly, feloniously and
members of the United States senate
or house of representatives; and now
you see the reslt. All farm products
are down lower than ever known be-
fore. The mechanic, the artisan and
the Iaborer are working at almost star
walton wages. The wheels of commerce
are clogged, checked and stagnant.
Two million tramps. The mines and
manufactures shut down. The farm
ers discouraged and the senate afraid
to act. In conclusion he said should
the present congress repeal the Sher-
of using silver as money, then God
help us to bear the troubles before us.

Mrs. Charles L. Buoki has retained Howe

limited divorce against her husband,
wealthy lumberman.
The aff1davits in the case, it is under

she was practically turned out of doors by
her husband, who leased his house to ex-
Gov. Campbell, Of Ohio. and has betook
himself to the Hotel Marlborough to await
the next move Of his wife
The Bucks have been married several
years and lived until three months ago at
