j ROYAL KISS.
A Kiowa Baby Kissed by the Prince S Eulalie OF
Spain.

There is no use in talking. Kansas leads
the world. 1t is cold day when her people
can't get to the front, and age cuts no fig
ure either. And when it comes to a ques-
| ton OF locality southern Kansas is always
sure to be in it.
| Every body in southern Kansas. or at
least along the border, knows Uncle Nat
Lane of kiowa. Now, then, Nat is by no
means an old man, bus they call him
uncle all the same, although nobody
knew when or how the word originated.
When he lived IN Wichita sixteen or sew
enteen years ago he was called
uncle" although he could not
be much more than twenty-seven or
twenty-eight years at the time. Wei, to
make a long story short Uncle Nat has a
sweet little baby girl, six years old, and
her name Is Gail A week or SO ago the
parents went to the worlds fair aud Gail
went with 'em. They were there when
the big reception was given to Eulalie aud
of course Uncle Nat was in the front
ranks in the crowd when the princess
passed by. He told Gail all about the
princess and then raised her onto his
shoulder where she could get good view
ofthe royal visitor. When the princess was
passing what should little Gail do but to
put her her pretty little dinpled hand to
her mouth and threw Kiss at the infapta.
The royal Carriage wa stopped at once, the
royal parsonage took the little girl in her
arms and planted royal kiss on her little
lips amid the enthusiastic applause of the
audience. The little Kansas miss smack
ed her lips and wondered why all the peo
pie should shout as they did. kiowa, Of
course, feels especially proud. 1t is said
that while the princess was kissing his
daughteL, Uncle Nat slipped folded paper
into the royal carriage which turned out
to be boom edition of one of the local
papers, which shows kiowa to be the only
gateway to the Cherokee Strip, soon to be
opened to settlement The last statemeht
is not vouched for, hut the kissing incl
dent is d positive fact.

A MAD DOG SCARE.

The mad dog is having his inning, and
for any obstruction the average man or
woman is likely to put in his ways he will
keep it. Is there anything on earth that
will canse more excitment in the shortest
possible time, than mad dog? Let u
dog trot down the street with his tongue
out, Swapping at the flies as he goes along.
and look even disrespectfully at the peo-
pie he passes on the street, and his best
friend will accuse him of being mad.
And this makes him mad. Why shouldn' {
it! Yesterday afternoon mad dog scare
occurred in the neighborhood of kel-
logg street and Hilsdale avenue. The
dog bit two horses belonging to Mr.
Nichols living near there, several cattle
were bitten, a dog belonging to Mr. Bid
dleman. and how many other animals
could not be learned. No persons were
bitten. but there were several narrow es-
capes. One lady, living near the corner
of kellogg street, was so badly frightened
that she ran all the way to town, and was
nearly out of breath when seen by a re-
porter. The dog was shot aud killed by
Mr.. Nichols near the green house at the
corner of Douglas aud Hillside. Owners
of stock in the neighborhood mentioned,
will do well to keep close watch on their
property.

THAT INJUNCTION,
1t VIII Probably be knocked Out This Morning
by Judge Reed.

The injunction proceedings In the case
of Emil Werner against the Barber
Asphalt company We're the subject of
Judge Reeds attentions yesterday after
noon, as well as several lawyers ard 9TH
ers. About o'clock Judge Reed took a
cigar from his pocket, seated himself in "a
chair in the jury box instead OF on the
bench for change, and announced that
he was ready to hear the case. 5. 3. Ami
don slowly arose and asked the court for
continuance OF the case in behalf of Emil
Werner nos Harris, for the defense, add
justed his glasses, asked the court to make
Amidon state the grounds for a coutinu-
anCe and to do so at once. Mr.. Amidon
said that J. o, Davidson was a material
witness in the case and that the plaintiff
could not get along without his testi-
mony. For some reason Mr.. Harris sus-
pected that the plaintiffs We're anxious
for a continuance and lie was particularly
active in trying to stop it. He insisted on
the court making Mr.. Amidon state what
he expected to prove by j. o. Davidson
and that he might concede it. Amidon
did so in writing, and Emil Werner, the
plaintiff was called on the stand 10 be
At this point Mr. Harris objected to the
papers, saying that they did not contain
sufficient cause of action. The issue was
then made and for two hours the
attorneys argued and read. Judge
Reed, himself, took hand in it and made
some very clever points. AT 4:30 the case
was postponed till this morning to give the
Judge an opportunity TO see and be shown
some authorities.
The injunction will probably be knock
ed out. From the tenor of Judge Reeds
remarks the indications are that he will
Dissolve the tempory restraining order. He
took the position that private individual
has no right to enjoin a work of this kind
unless it could be shown by him that the
tearing up of the street would impose upon
him hardships that would not be imposed
on others, and that if the community was
to be injured, then it would become the
duty of the county attorney to ask for an
injunction.
The arguments were quite interesting
and cleverly submitted on both sides.

AT THE RACE TRACK,

1t can be truthfully said, that there is
more speedy horses at the track on the
fair grounds than at any time in the past,
except during the fair.
Ii is said by some that there is at least
seven horses there that have shown their
ability to trot or pace quarter in 80 sec
onds or less.
William Ramsey having left the en-
ploy of Dubois Bros. of Denver, Colo, is
getting a number of good horses together
here to educate for the fall campaign,
throughout Kansas.
William Trotter, trainer for A A. Kitz-
miller, has the cream of Kansas in the way
of trotting and pacing horses; and it is a
pleasure TO see his horses move along easy
quarters in 81 TO 35 seconds this early in
the season. and good horsemen predict be
has good chances for ride in less than
2:l0 before the fall campaign is over.
Trainers WILDER, Cox and Nennum have
each good string of horses in their
stables, and should be able TO wear Ola

PouNpED A POLICEMAN.
Nile Bars the ru:il s Makes Eicious As
suit on CfHcer Dad;snan.

| The people on L ,st Douglas avenue had
/ all the excitement their hearts could wish
/ for, for IA few minutes yesterday fore
! noon.
| Mike Burk. the pugilist, was full of red
/ liquor, aud the spirit moved him to 60 on
the warpatb; ana when Mike goes on the
warpath he prides himself ON being the
nearest living likeness to circular saw.
| lie is bad nun from Bitter creek, and he
was just in from that locality yesterday
morning. He established his hea3quar-
tiers in Charlie Aliens place. much to the
disgust of the proprietor, where he began
to run over the pages of his memory, In
hopes of remembering some individual
whom he might have grudge against.
One of them entered; the very man he
wanted TO see; and he proceeded at once to
| pick quarrel with him. Charlie Alien
| knew that he was bad man, aud be took
| the precautiou 10 summon a policeman.
| Officer Ike Daidsman's lucky star was
| III the wrong place as be was the first man
! shat Charley Alien met. Dadisman hast
ened to the scene and taking hold Of
! Burk's arm informed him that he desired
! to accompany him to the city bastIle. All
right" said Nike and walked eff with the
officer. They passed Fourth avenue all
! right and had reached Emporia and Mike
was very quiet. There is a high curb at
/ the corner of Emporia and Douglas, and
| when Dadisman arrived there he looked
down to see how far he had to step. This
was Burk's opportunity, and as quick as
lightning he dealt the officer blow in the
face with his mammoth right hand and
felled him to the ground. Dadisman's head
rested on the pavement and Burke stopped
down and gave him another blow with
such force as to break >his cheek bone.
Burk then ran a distance Of several
hundred feet, darted into a building
and shot out through screen
door into the alley. Dadisman
followed and met him face to face in
| alley. He pulled out his revolver, placed
| it to Burk's breast and commanded him to
halt. Burk, with his breast absolutely
against the muzze of the revolver, struck
Dadisman another terrific blow in the
face. The officer put up his gun and the
quarrel continued until officer Dan Parks
appeared on the scene and struck Burk
over the head with his club and felled him
to the ground like an OK. He was then
overcome and taken to the city pris-
on and locked up. Dadisman went
home for repairs, and those who have seen
him say that he has a terribly disfigured
head on his shoulders. \ few days ago he
took out an accident policy, which will
come in handy, he says.
Burk is giant in stature. He is over
six feet high, with broad shoulders, long
arms aud a pair Of fists that look like two
hams. He is a pugilist, and he makes
hard fight, as he does not know or care
what fear is, although he has never been
accused of bravery. He will probably be
given an opportunity TO test his strength
daily OH the rock pile for several weeks, if
not for several months.
