a PRETTY CUTE JUSTICE.


Hs Was Not Great on Bears, But He
Knew How to Raise n Fines
It was the law of the village that all
sh0wmen, itinerants and organ grind
ers must get a license before doing
business there One day fat police
man, who had been on the force about
six months without doing anything,
concluded it was time he arrested
some body. Soon afterward along
came an Italian with a performing
bear.
''Hev yez got yer icense?" asked
the policeman
No." said the exhibitor of the bear.
s"Ehen yer my prizners,' said the
policeman. and he triumphantly
marched off with them to the village
station house, he leading the Italian
and the italian leading the bear.
Arraigned before the police justice
the Italian pleaded guilty and the
severe and scorching lecture on the
enor1nity of his offense, ending by
fining him $40, the full extent of the
law.
The culprit had a lot of small
change in his pocket, but beng
mostly pennies and nickels, it only
counted up to $3.50. For a few
moments the Judge was in quandary.
He didn't want to send the fellow to
Jail, nor yet lose the SO. Presently
a bright idea struck him-a happy
solution of the problem, and he said:
Here, officerl Take this fellow out
to the market place and let him per-
form with his bear until he makes up
the balance; and when he gets it
drive him out of town.

Half dozen hands went up and

What is the largest city in Penn

''Philadelphiai'' shouted the little
boy with the jersey suit.
Now continued the teacher,

M'CASEY'S SUCCESSOR.


DR.. r. a. williams, of OIathe, RepubIi-
can, is Talked OF.
The state board of charities is in ses-
sion this week at the insane asylum and
will before it adjourns settle the ques-
ton of who shall be superintendent of
that institution for the next year.
The fiscal year of the state charitable
Institutions ends June Both, and for that
reason there is unusual interest in this
meeting of the board.
1t is known that the board will care
fully consider DIR. McCasey's case and
the general understanding is that Nc
Casey will retire.
DIR. Annie III. Kniberg the present as
sistant superintendent has frequently
been mentioned as a possible successor
of Dr. McCasey, but today it was learned
that formidable rival for the appoint
ment put in his appearance in the per-
son OF DIR. r. A Williams of Olathe. 1t
was DIR. Williams who cared for Mrs.
Lease while she was sick at Olathe, and
it ID understood that Mrs. Lease has I'M
dertaken to give the appointment to DIR.
Williams if it is in her power.
DIR. Williams belongs to to the cleo
trio school of medicine, and all the
friends of the homeopathic and alIo-
pathic schools are opposed to his APP
pointment
The strongest argument used against
the appointment of Or. Williams is of
political nature His enemies charge
that he has always been a strong Repub-
lican, and that during the legislative
controversy he furnished money for the
support of the Douglass house. This
last argument is likely to keep DR.. Will
lIams out of the asylum, although his
friends are working hard for him.

A Wellington Young Man Kills
Himself fer a Woman.

WICHITA, June 25.-The drowning of
Reuben Peachy in the Little river last
week will result in what may turn out to
long legal contest in the courts.
When Reuben was drowned it was
feared that foul play was practiced on
him and his parents were very anxious to
find the body before decomposition set
in. Accordingly horse and buggy was
offered as a reward to the person who
would first discover the body.
Albert D. Simmons while wading the
river touched the body and claimed the
reward. Mrs. Peachy refused to give it
up and the result was that the property
was replevined, Constables Green and
Forby taking it into their possession.
Saturday Mrs. Peachy instituted pro-
ceedings in the district court for the pur-
pose of recovering the property and ask
ing $50 damages for having it taken
from her. Lawyers say there is a nice
point of law involved in the case.
Mrs. Peachy, it is understood, claims
that young man named Shields raised
the body of her son out of the water, and
that hence the reward belonged to him.
She also claims, rather her attorneys
claim it for her, that she settled the
claim of Mr.. Shields by giving him
gold watch. The affair has caused a
good deal of discussion in the neighbor-
hood and it has got to the point that ir
may break up old neighborly friendships.
