Hayes took him 10 court, he says. Hayes told him
he was sorry he had struck him, and allowed him

Melden learned his lesson well and when ar

KANSAS NOTES.
(stsr.)

Bonner Springs win soon be head over
heels in revival.
Kansas took fourth place in the inter
state collegiate oratorical contest.
The Fifth district has a candidate for
governor and the initials of his name
are DIR. H. S. Roberts for secretary of
state.
Musical culture at Wellington is at
such low ebb that man was encored
for singing "Some Day / Wander Back
Again"
With an ineffable scorn Abilene young
people who play goff must look at juno
ton City young people who play only
tennis.
A drummer told an Atchison reporter
that the Atchison girls were the best
looking girls he had seen on his trip con-
sidering the site of the town.
The "Diyes" of Oberlin can now give
Lazarus the laugh. A well for irrigating
purposes is being put down in the Ober-
lin cemetery.
Piano manufacturers are considering
the advisability of putting another oc-
tave on their instruments since Emporia
won the musical jubilee prizes.
The Santa Fe railroad gave an employee
81, 600 in cash for defending its property
from theft The employees foot was
crushed by car while he was perform
ing his duty.
The university base ball team has been
beaten twice ''hand running" by High
school nine in Central Kansas. Well,
the university boys are no SLOUGH at
playing "drop the handkerchief" any
way.
The young woman who had charge of
the st. Joseph union depot counter has
disappeared. We should think she
would. No girl with any countenance
could long keep up the deception at that
place called lunch. And the Atchison
depot resort is bad enough to cause the
girl who runs it to send home for her
mother.
A Topeka woman, who was invited to
read a story before the Artists and Au-
thors' club at Kansas City, this week,
was considerably elated and told her
husband of the courtesy bestowed upon
her. He was equally pleased and adj
monished her as follows: "My dear, you
must do your best, now, and write an in
teresting sketch" "Not MUCH" she
replied with knowing laugh, 81 must
wear pretty dress"

From the HAYS CITY sentinel.


: Bessie Ferris, of Wa-Keeney, was the
guest of Annie Philip last week.
Of the eleven high school graduates
two are farmer boys and one Is farmer
girl.
The merchants of Hays have dubbed
together and bought car load of sugar.
White-covered wagons east bound
from the coyote county are daily sight
in Hays.
Ellis has no society for the develop
ment of "higher aims" like Wa-Keeney,
but she has more pretty girls.
W. E. Saum, democratic nominee for
district judge, registered at these judi
cial headquarters on Thursday.
One item in the Hill City Republican
says ''that Hill City is on the eve of
BOOM" and the very next one relates
that "the merry-go-round has arrived"
The pops down in the Fifth district are
talking of sending w. P. Seeds TO con-
gress. Seeds-U. s. garden seeds-is the
slogan of Pap Baker up in this district,
and we must object to redundancy.
A young man called at this Office last
week right on the eve of his marriage
and paid his subscription. We presume
he was actuated by the same thought
that leads man to make his will before
he dies.
Judge Stephen J. Osborn informs the
Sentinel that he and Captain Joe Waters,
of Topeka, have about concluded upon
partnership in law to take effect on the
completion of Judge Osborn's term of
Office in January next. Captain Waters
has reputation as wide as the state.
He is man of taste and skill IN litera-
ture, an orator, successful attorney,
and gentleman; and we will say to the
bar of Topeka that they may expect to
find in Judge Osborn neither a booted
and spurred cavalier of the wild and
woody west, not yet timorous tender
foot who will twiddle his thumbs on one
of the chairs over near the woodbox
while the other lawyers put their feet on
the clerks desk. Added to first class
abilities as lawyer Judge Osborn has a
store of experience gathered in eight
years service upon the bench which
must be of inestimable value to him in
his profession. He voluntarily retires
from the bench to re-enter the practice
in broader field, and it is no meaning
less jingle of terms to predict for the
firm of Waters & Osborn very success
full future.

Last Sunday afternoon, while E. d.
Wheeler's family were attending Sum
day school at Ogsllah some miscreant
broke into their house. He had no
trouble to break in as the window was
up and all he had to do was to take out
the screen. 1t was late in the afternoon
when Mr.. Wheeler returned home, as
soon as he discovered what had hap
pened he sent his hired man to Wa-Kee-
ney to inform Sheriff Courtney. Mon
day morning Sheriff Courtney arrested
a boy at the coal sheds near the depot.
Monday afternoon he had preliminary
hearing before Justice Croft and plead
guilty to house breaking and stealing
two shirts and pair of pants. He was
fairly well dressed and did not need
clothing. The boy says his name is
Walter Johnson, that he is 16 years old
and his home is at Colorado Springs.
Judge Croft bound him over until the
next term of the district court.

The miscellaneous collection OF
types, press, cases, dictionary, brooms,
blackboard, agent, wringer, manager,
washing machine, editor, etc, etc.,
known as the Omnicrat Office would
totally eclipse Noah's Ark and all the
combined junk shops of the earth, yet
most of these articles would be found
useful if given proper chance to prove
their utility. In the absence of the edi-
tor the big dictionary is the most con-
spicuous object of this heterogeneous
display, but in that august presence it
is the most abused and least used, being
completely overshadowed by his mod
ernized etymology, orthoepic erudition
and phonetic vagrancy. Careful editorial
perusal of its well-filled pages might
improve the columns of the paper which
should then be subjected to the cleans
ing powers of the washing maching be,
fore mailing. Even the wringer might
perform valuable service if the aforesaid
editor could only contrive to get his
head between the rolls few minutes
each day.

No More Passes.

At conference of the railroad ticket
agents in Topeka Tuesday it was decided
to abandon the old practice of issuing a
large number of passes to each state con-
vention and to absolutely refuse free
to or in the interest of
any candidate of any party. It is an
that there will positively be no
deviation from this rule, and that all
persons who wish to attend any of the
either as delegates or spec
tators, will be obliged to pay the estsb-
lished rate of one fare for the round trip.
