Queeu.berry wm Punch Ro.ebery.

PARIS, Sept. 14-"Lord Rosebery has hed!' Thus spoke the Marquis of Queens berry to reporter, the noble marquis at the same time flourishing thick bundle of letters which, he averred, contained full proof of the moral ohliquity of the English secretary of state for foreign affairs. And if Lord Rosebery fancies he has done with me" continued the marquis, he is vastly mistaken
 II am going to London to see this matter through. l will not rest until I have brought it to head and if an assault on the person of Lord Rosebery is necessary why, am prepared to commit that as Sault,
 ''Nou see my intention is to show up Lord RoSebery publicly, and possibly my only chance of doing so is tn force him tC bring me up before the law courts for as sault.
 Then said the marquis triumpbantly ''I have these" and he hourished his hun dle of letters.

Only Two watchmen In Sneak Shoes" on
 Duty at Night.
 Doubtless but few of the visitors at the state prison, made widely known of late by the investigation of certain charges against a former warden, know how that institution appears, within, during the hours when all we'll living people are asleep, says the Hartford Post.
 The fact is that there are but two watchmen on duty within the walls during the night and none without, These watchmen walk about in "sneak shoes" or cotton slippers, so that theil presence is not detected by the convicts A prisoner never knows when he is be ing watched through the small hole ir the back of his cell. The watchmen are always active and exchange httie con versation with one another, for to do SC would be to betray their whereabouts tc possible scheming convicts. Escape al night is practically impossible, as each cell is double locked. This does away with the necessity for guards on tht outer walls, as in the day time. Sleeping Tn the officers quarters are half dozen of the officers within easy l call of the watchmen in an emergency These emergency officers are the regula officers of the prison who take thei | turns" sleeping near by, ready for actior when called.

 ARKANSAS CITY, Kan, Sept, l4.-The mercury in Arkansas City yesterday after noon indicated a temperature of llO de Srres, Fahrenheit, the hottest day of the 'eason in this part of the country. The re cent scenes were more than repeated, and many persons, overcome hy the heat, were carried from the linpS. Some of them will recover. but others will uie Six men have inst died
 There is great discomfort among the homeseekers because the forces at the booths are not large enough to register more than cue half of the people who wish certificates of registration. Great pressure Is being brought to bear upon the authori- ties at Washington to induce them to move the booths to Arkansas City or to discon- tlnue ali registration and to permit every one to enter the strip and locate a claim. Appeals to Hoke Smith. Lieutenant Caldwell sent a telegram through his superior officer Colonel Par ker, to Secretary Hoke Smith advising him ot the conditions existing at the booths, and suggesting that as the regis tratlon has proved almost a complete fail ure it be discontinued All of the news paper men representing metropolitan pa pers united in the following dispatch to Secretary Smith:
 "ln the name of the papers we represent, We respectfully request that you take i'm mediate steps 70 alleviate the suffering of | the homeseekers who are seeking reGistra- ton at booth near this city. The booth | IS situated un q dusty road, four miles away froo1 water and shelter the weather Is extremely lot, and hot winds are blow ing gale. The suffering is great. A large number of the homeseekers have been | stricken down, and some of them have died
 Registration is progressing so slowly that thousands of men are compelled tc stand in line for days, exposed to the sun, | dust and thirst. Can you not cause the booth to be removed to this city and put on a larger force of clerks, or abandon regis tration at once. For the honor and wei fare of the administration we beg you to take immediate action. Humanity de l mandS it
 So bitter has the feeling become against the registration system that when Friday night arrives, and it is apparent that tht | thousands in waiting will be unable tC have their names placed on the list, a riot will be preCipitated. Practically the sam, | condition exists at Orlando, Saltwater | Hunnewell and Caldwell
 l It will be impossible to enforce the order | issued by Secretary Smith on Monday for | bidding any one to board the trains enter | ing the strip at noon who are not armed with registration certificates. Trains load ed to their fullest capacity are arriving here, and this influx will be kept up con | stantly until Saturday noon.
