"Why, Jhat our cashier has uttered false
notes. replied Mr.. Rising.

Mrs. Rising.

Emily" said Mr.. Rising dejectedly
"Does the cashier sing much, John?''
was Mrs. R:sing's next interrogatory.
"He'l sing low for awhile now, Mrs.
Rising, Mr.. Rising growled.
"Well, I never knew Bill Jones had

remarked Mrs. Rising hopefully
''What IN the name of sense has that to

SAN Francisco, Sept. PA special
from San Diego says that the Wright ir.

judgment roll was forwarded to the SUI

he airing in the confirmation proceedings
which were begun by the district Feb
ruary %, 1892, In other words. no techni-
cal points were imposed by either case
and the case will go before the court on

The Whale and the sprat.

As the whale and the sprat
Came down Ararat,
They felt a desire to go on bat.
Said the sprat to the whale,
s'Shall we travel by rail,
Or would you prefer just an afternoon
sail?''
Said the whale to the sprat,
81 should much prefer that.
The land always makes me as sick as cat.
Said the sprat to the whale;
t'Will you have a cocktail
To tone up your system? You look rather
pale.''
Said the whale to the sprat,
al am getting too fat,
am drinking too much, but can't resist
that
Then the sprat and the whale
Had another cocktail,
And several others, and then they took ale.
So the whale and the sprat
They played tit for tat
From the straits Of Belle Isle to the ant
arctic lat.
Till sprat said to whale,
ssDo let me prevail
On your delicate stomach with toast under
quail
'sMy dear Mr.. Sprat,
really am graf
Lied at your ofTer.'' So down they both sat.
Said the sprat to the whale,
81 admire your tail;
should think it would be Of such use in 8
gale"
Said the whale to the sprat,
81 admire your chat
So charming hardly know where am at
ssThe people all quail
When wallop my tail,
And thrash the harpooners like chat
with a fail.
ri lay the seas fat
AS crumpled door1nat,
Or churn them all up like the froth in .
vat.
stThe sea is my pail,
The shingle and shale
Are the dregs when shake it to see if it's
stale.''
sDear me- said the sprat,
ssThat's all very pat,
But aren t you afraid you will talk through
your hatf''
Then the high dudgeon whale
Flew off on trail,
And he rounded the Horn with flip Of his
tail.
Said the cute little sprat,
ST am well out Of 1hatl''
Ana he winked to himself as he tied his
cravat.

Governor E. n. Morrill, and Colonel

Chickamauga where they attended the
dedication of the monuments to Kansas
old soldiers who fell on that famous bat
tie field.
Governor Morrill, was sick all the way
home and is not feeling well today.
Colonel Elliott says the governor was
much affected by the news of the dearh
of Joseph e. Wilson and that he has not
been we'll since.
Colonel Elliott says: ave Kansas peo-
pie were not in it for display alongside
of Governor Mckinley with whole
regiment Of his militia and a bodyguatd
of mounted zouaves.
Governor Morton of New York had a
big military detachment, and his men
wore more geIi lace than the soldiers
from any state.
1.-The Kansas monuments are a credit
to the state. While they are not among
the most expensive they show good
taste, and are located i'll good positions
among the best on the grounds and alto

RECOGNEZE CUBA.
This, Says Lucfen Baker, Is What U. g.
Should DO.

This, Says Lucfpn Baker, Is What U. g.
Should DO.
CHICAGO, Sept 24-The Tribune pub
fishes interviews with senators and con-
gressmen on what action should be taken
by the United States on the Cuban ques-
ton. Among them is the following by
Senator Lucien Baker of Kansas:
From my standpoint I believe that
our government should Immediately
recognize Cuba as a belligerenJ nation
| Then she wonld have the right to law
fully buy arms and to- enter into COM
mercial relations with US. I believe the
Cubans are entitled 10 their indepen-
dence. The rule of Spain over Cuba, with
but few exceptions, has been cruel and
tyraunical. During the ten yesrs strug-
gle from 1868 to 1918, unaided and alone,
the Cubaus nearly achieved indspend-
ence. I believe if the United States will
recognize Cuba as a belligerent power
she will achieve independence. It is
one of the cardinal principles of this
government, as | understand it, to aid
| and assist in lawful ways and means any
race of people in the western hemis-
| phere struggling for independence
| against the domination of arbitrary, des :
| potic and autocratic power, and at the
| earliest opportunity should extend its
| sympathy.
By revolution our liberties were achiev-
ed. It has always required revolution TO
| obtain substantial rights from despotic
power. We are under no obligation to
| Spain. We owe nothing to her. In our
late controversy when the clouds were
dark and lowering she speedily recog-
nized the confederacy. We should now,
without commission and without delay,
return the compliment and recognize
/ Cuba.
am inclined to believe that when we
contemplate the tyrannical conduct of
Spain toward Cuba that Lord Napier's
estimate of the Spanish character is
| about correct:
Brave behind castle walls, towards in
open field, and robbers always"

| Senator from Kansas.

CHANGES HIS OPINION.
Judge Hezen Makes New Ruling Affect
ing Former Decision.

Judge Hezen Makes a New Ruling Affect
ing a Former Decision.
In rendering his decision in the in
sur&nce case yesterday Judge Hazen
virtually reversed a former decision
made by him and sustained by the SUI
preme court in regard to the new mort
gage law. 1t was decided in that case
that the law was unconstitutional as it
impaired the rights of existing contracts.
In handing down his decision yes
terday the judge said that in as much
as that was a stronger case than the one
under consideration and his opinion had
been sustained only by divided court
in the former case, he decided the law
of 1895 applies to contracts made before
it was passed, as it affects the remedy
rather than rights OF the contract.

Local Sportsmen Should Secure Some OF

Local Sportsmen Should Secure Some of
the Z. S. Fish.
TOPEKA, Kas., Sept. 2s.
To the Sporting Editor of the State Journal:
Can you explain why it is that no game
fish are planted in the streams surround
ing Topeka? We hear of the fish COM
missioner's stocking streams in other
parts of the state with bass, croppies,
ETC, but for some reason the anglers in
this section are constantly sighted.
Wakarusa is an excellent stream in
which to propagate bass, croppies and
pike. They should also do we'll in Sol
der, Mill creek and Silver Lake; but no.
we must be content to angle all day
with the very gratifying % result of
landing a measlay string of bullheads.
1sAAK WALTON, JR.
The cause of our neglect by the United
States fish commission is perhaps that
the local anglers have not been enter
prising enough to make any effort to
have our streams stocked as they
should be,

NOT AS BAD AS COLUMBUS
Topeka Considerably Better or Than the
Ohio Capital.

Topeka Considerably Better or Than the
Ohio Capital.
Topeka people frequently think they
have cause to complain about some things
at the Topeka opera houses, but they
would have real reason for complaint if
they lived in Columbus, o. Columbus is
city of $4,000 people, more than twice
as big as Topeka. Yet its principal
opera house has lately put in a new cur
tain devoted to advertising lin little
painted squares) the butchers, bakers
and candlsstick- makers of Colum bus. A
curtain of this kind is seldom seen now
adays, outside OF backwoods towns, and
whenever it is seen, it subjects the town
to derision both from theatrical COM
panies and other visitors Columbus is
entitled to the sympathy of all the large
cities in Kansas. None of them have to
endure such an exhibition of jayness as
that The Colum bus people don't like it
either for the Evening Dispatch says:
THE new curtain at the Grand has
now been before the patrons of that
house for week and fair opportunity
given for the forming of an honest opin-
ion on the same. The writer has heard
no one go into ecstasies over it and in
fact the concensus of opinion is against
the innovation. To be compelled to sit
and face bill board during such parts
OF an evening as the curtain may be
down is not pleasant and for one the
writer ventures to express the hope that
none of the other houses will see fit to
follow the example. From an artistic
standpoint-to one who lays no claim to
being an artist-it looks as if the paint
ing had been done by an expert with a

from that number Coach Games will Sc

eleven has not yet been picked, two
games have already been arranged, the

one of the crack elevens of the west,
which will occur at Denver Novem-
