STREET CAR ORDINANCE.

Drunken Men and Insane People Not AL
lowed to Ride Trolley Cars.
An ordinance will be introduced at the
council meeting tonight to regulate
traffic on the city street railway. It is
chiefly aimed at the transportation of the
insane from the depots to the asylum, and
prohibits them being taken to the asylum
on the street cars, but allows the attend
ants to take harmless patients for an air
ing after they have been admitted at the
asylum.
Another provision of the ordinance
prohibits any drunken people from rid
ing on the cars and the conductors and
motorneers are authorized to use suffi-
Gent force to eject them.
Some of the councilmen are in favor
of Incorporating a section compelling
the railway company to place guards on
the sides of the cars nexttO the trolley
poles as the absence of the guards is re-
sponsible for most of the accidents
which occur by passengers colliding with
the poles in jumping from the cars.

BOYCOTT ON GOV. MORRILL,
Reported Scheme For Forcing Him to be
More Lsntont With Saloons.

WICHITA, Kas., Sept. 81 F. Ashton,
deputy United States marshal, gives the
outlines of boycott scheme for wreak-
ing vengeance on Gov. Morrill, for his at
tempts to close the saloons in the larger
and smaller cities alike. The scheme
spoken ofby Mr.. Ashton contemplates the
org anization of the business men of tho
five leading cities, and incidentally those
of the smaller cities for the purpose of
placing such restrictions about the First
National bank of Leavenworth, of which
Gov. Morrill, is principal owner and
president, as will cripple it, if not worse.
The plan seems to be to force all ma
tI0nal and state banks to refuse to do
business with the First n ational bank of
Leavenworth or even to continue rela-
tions with any bank in the larger cities
that fills the position of CORES pOndeut
for Gov. Morrills Leavenworth or Hia-
watha banks
If either or both the Morrill, banks are
found on the books the bank officers will
be requested to drop them under penalty
of withdrawal of desposits If these
banks are not ia the business chain, the
Kansas City, Chicago and New York
banks which carry deposits as CORES
pondents will be asked to drop the
Leavenworth and Hiawatha banks under
penalty of the withdrawal of the bust
ness of from fifty to a hundred of the
leading banks of Kansas. Local banks
declining to make this demand will be
disciplined by the deposItors

DEFENDER WON EASILY.
OutsaiIs the VaIkyrfe After it was Report
ed it Was Behind


NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-Ths first of the
series of races for the international
trophy, the Americas cup, was sailed in
Valkyrie weather Saturday and resulted
in the triumph of the Defender, though
for time this seemed impossible, the
reports from the course being that
Valkyrie was over half a mile ahead at
the turning point The mistake was due
no doubt 70 the heavy fog which settled
down over the course. At the start only
did Lord Dunraven's craft have an ad-
vantage, and the American boat won by
the wide margin of eight minutes and
fOrty-nine seconds.
The English yacht was clearly out
sailed. but had she not been noticeably
the inferior of the swift American boat
she would have lost the contest by an ac-
cident. When she was rounding the
mark her boom touched the flagstaff on
the buoy, which alone would disqualify
her, even had she crossed the line first
There was no single point of sailing or
seamanship in which the American
champion did not show a clear advantage
over her rival. She sailed faster, she
kept closer in the wind, the boat herself
and the crew exhibited more smartness
in every change of course and her Yam
kee skipper showed himself a better sea-
man than the En- glishman,

OLD MASONIC PAPERS.
DispensatiOns Granted to the First Lodges

DispensatiOns Granted to the First Lodges
in kansas.
Grand Secretary J. K Wilson of the
A. +. and A. NJ. is busy sorting out and
oyerhauling old and musty documents be-
longing to the various lodges throug bout
the state, filed with the grand lodge for
preservation. Some of the papers run
back as far as 1854 and are yellow with
age. One of the most valued and re-
vered series is the charters of the first
three masonic lodges established in Kan
sas territory.
The dispensation was granted by the
grand lodge of Missouri to Round Prai-
RE, LeavenwOlth, and Grove (now WyAn-
dotte) in 1854.
When the charters were granted
Round Prairie DIETER kown as 6mithton)
was made lodge No. 1.
The majority of the Masons in the
state .hink that Smithton was the first
Masonic lodge of Kansas. but as a matter
of fact, Wyandotte is the oldest, it hav-
inc received the first dispensation.
Another rare document is the first
communication to the grand lodge of
Kansas territory from Denver city, Z. T..
in 1851.
Mr.. Wilson says the minutes of the
Iastnamed lodge were kept in q very
different manner from those of the pres
ent day.

Rice desires a shot at a deer, and Mr.

Elliott, should he encounter Old Ephraim

THOMPSON VS.. THOMPSON.
Application fer Divorce Refused by
Judge webb of AtchisOn.
From the Atchison Globe.

The application of George c. Thomp-
son for y divorce from Anna B. Thomp-
son. on the ground of dssertion and neg
lsct of duty, was denied by Judge Webb
this morning, who held that the evidence
did not warrant the granting Of the de-
cree. The ease has been on trial three
days, and was argued by the attorneys
this morning. Mrs. Thompson made a
strong defense, and was an excellent
witness. The court, in refusing the
divorce, also declined to make any order
for support or alimony, leaving the par
ties in the same position they were in
when the action was commenced. Mr..
Thompson's past record probably salts
hed the court that he could be depended
upon to perform such duties as devolved
upon him. Thompson has many friends
in Atchison. and thsre is general regret
that his domestic life is not more plea
SAINT The decision was followed by an
affecting scene, Mrs. Thompson and her
children giving away to tears. Mr..
Thompson will return to Topeka tomor-
row, and Mrs. Thompson and party will
return to ST. Louis tonight

To the Sporting Editor State Journal:
The three big battles that are to take
place at Dallas the latter part of next
month, have aroused quite q lot of in
terest, not only among Nde blokes wot
loves mill. - but the general public as
we'll OF course the most interest is CEN
tered around the first one, between Cor
bett and Fitz, but all three promise to be
the most even contests that have taken
place in recent years and should
be what the boys term shot stuff
from start to finish. OF course
the wise people have picked Corbett to
win, but l find it is a good plan to make
two guesses on a fight, for you may miss
the first guess. I believe in his coming
fight with Fitz, Corbett is meeting the
best man, barring Jackson, he has ever
fought In Fitz he will meet a cool,
clever, scientific pugilist and man who,
as ring general, has no superior, and
who can and is apt to deliver a knock
out punch as any time. He has been
tried often against proven good men and
has always brought the money home. OF
course he is giving away quite a lot of
weight to Corbett. but not as much as
can be gotten into as good condition and
is as fast (which I doubt very
much) as when he fought Sui
livan, he should win, providing
he don't lose his head, which, from his
past actions. he seems prone to do at any
and all occasions 1t is an old ring say
ing, that man who loses his head in the
ring will lose the fight In the Mahsr
and O'Donnell'fght there will be meet
ing of two entirely different styles of
fighters O'Donnell is very clever and
scientific, and depends on jabbing his
man and getting away without a return.
While Mahsr is not SO clever as O'Don-
nell, he is a terrific hitter with both
hands, and is a dangerous man in any
company, no matter how fast Maher
should win very handily from O'DonnelL
Last, but not least, comes the Ryan
Smith mill for the weller weight (I42
pounds) championship of the world.
This battle will be a corker. It should
be the most interesting of the three to
witness on account of the hot work that
will be done. No two men could be
more evenly matched than Ryan and
Smith, as they have met four times and
no winner returned. l think the man
that picks the winner in this fight is
| more lucky than wise: SEE.

game between the T. A. A. and Law

park, but the game was not at all what
was expected While Mayors work in

awful, and in the fourth inning he de-

eleven runs in the last five innings
Lawrence didn't put up an extra game
