~DIRT DEFIES THE KING" THEN
SAPOL 10
IS GREATER THAN ROYALTY ITSELF

this morning. Arthur Bennett, a cOlored
boy Of IA, had been arrested on com
plant Of DIR. Cockey, whose little boy,
Gist, of 10. had been slapped by the de-
PENDANT Nick Childs was the self ap-
pointed attorney for the defendant and
was there to see that the boy had fair
play. The boys mother was also pres
emit and was very nice about it. Little
Freddie Brett was the most straig hit
forward witness the court has had for
and intelligent boy. It developed final
ly that the white boy had called the col
ored boy '-nigger" on various occasions.
Both boys had been punished for former
offenses by their parents and the court
thought It best to send them all home
with a fatherly lecture.
d. W. Cole, whose whiskers are the
main part Of him, had been drunk, just
plain drunk. He admitted it and was
fined So.
c. Dean had also fallen from grace
long enough to accumulate jag that
could be seen for some blocks. he also
allowed there was nothing wrong about
the charge and took his 50 fine grace

John Elliott had also tempered with
the flowing bowl and had nothing to
conceal. He also was assessed 50.

A man named Holcomb had also been
drunk. bat his case was continued at the
Of the police.
A Mr.. Burgenback had also fooled
with the liquor when it was in a fair way
to intoxicate. He was guilty, and he
knew it, SO he was not surprised when
the Judge made his fine 50.

eral days we awOke one morning to find
the steamer running at full speed in q
dense fog. We demonstrated of course
but the captain said we were fools; that
he guessed he could dodge an iceberg
easier at full speed than any other way.
We had an ice pilot along but even his
opinion had no weight with the captain
and one day we suddenly confronted an
iceberg. 1t was a small berg but there
was enough of it above water to make
two Kansas capltols-
'The man at the wheel tried to dodge
it of course, but the ice pilot pushed
him aside and steered straight for the
berg We struck it squarely and
cut a hole in it nearly twenty
feet deep. If the ships pilot had had
his way the berg would have struck US
amid ships and caved in our side AS it
was we escaped with a hole that sent us
back to Newfoundland for repairs. When
we struck the berg four or five tons of
ice we're knocked off onto our deck, and
our steward aud his assistants, with cool
foresight, began slowing it away in the
ice chest.
There was any quantity Of ammuni-
ton on board, and if a bird appeared
there we're sure 80 be three or four hun
dred shots fred at it. Finally. after
few weeks of trying, sonnet body killed a
bird, and was very proud Of it. till it was
discovered that it was a mother Cary'a
chicken" and the superstitious sailors
were about to mutiny because of it.
AT Greenland we had some trouble
about our money. In exchanging money
we found that we could only get 50
cents for a dollar, but one of the store
keepers where / made a small purchase
IN giving me the change endeavOred to
pass an American dollar on me for 100
cents. I told him it was worth only 80
cents there, but he thought because l
was an American 1 ought to be glad to
get American money L called in some
Of our party and we proceeded to carry
away his entire store for change. Then
he came to time and gave me the rieh t
change. The money they used on the
coast CT Greenland was Of paper and had
been issued by the Danish government.
We could get it changed at the COVER
nor's headq for American gOld.v
At the end of the professors talk Eu-
gene Ware was called upon. but said he
had nothing to say.
Most of the visitors at the club house
went home during the night but few

that all the guests enjoyed themselves

GOING INTO CAMP.
Militia in Topeka on Their way to the

Militia in Topeka on Their way to the
Annual EIlcam pment.
It might have been suspected this
morning that there had been an Indian
outbreak or a rebellion had broken out
in the vicinity of Topeka, from the IN
usual mum Der of uniformed men on the
streets. Their mission was peaceful,
however. as they were only gathering to
go into camp where beans and beefsteak
are devoured at the expense of the state.
The men in Topeka were members OF
Co A, from Holton, under command Of
Captain Phillips, and some Of the mem
bers of Battery B. under command of
Second Lieutenant Patterson. They left
at 10 o'clock over the Missouri Pacific
for Ottawa where the division will be
encamped for a week. The Holton com
pany arrived in Topeka last night and
were guests of Battery B and Major J.
f Anderson
Battery B will be poorly represented
at the encampment, as only about half
the battery were able to go, among them
the commander, Lieutenant Phillips.

named Richardson TO the registers office,
and when Whitaker asked him where he
lived Barton had interrupted to help
Richardson locate himself Whitaker
objected to this, and finally told Barton
to shut up. There was no noisy or pro-
fame language on either side. but W hit
aker had called in Officer BlumenstOck
animation of Whitaker by Lawyer Reed
was rather warm at one time.
Barton won't interfere with me again,
said Whitaker
"He will if he sees fit - said Reed
mo he WON'T persisted Whitaker,

throw me out of the window
ssYou bet / will if you are impudent to
me- said Reed, and then the court inter
fered
Before the defendant offered any wit
nesses Judge Ensminger announced that
there was not evidence enough on the
side Of the prosecution to hold the de-
PENDANT on a charge of disturbing the
peace, and while he thought he had IN
duly interfered with the duties Of the
elections officer, there was no complaint
of that, and he would discharge the de-

When the vote was taken it was % for

for confirmation was . Democrats, 8
Republicans and Populist- Kyle;
while that against confirmation was 10
Democrats, a Republicans and 2 Pop

traordinary efforts to secure Mr.@Peck-

factor in the defeat of Mr.. Peckham

open efforts to secure his confirmation.
