HE FEARED TRAIN ROBBERS.
A Railroad Story Pertaining to the Lin
coin Branch.

coin Branch.
There was considerable excitement
along the Lincoln Branch one day re-
Gently. A rumOr somehow reached the
railroad men that gang of men would
hold up the train near Tescott, says the
Salina Republican. The agent at Lin
coin telegraphed the Tescott agent of
the threatened danger, and the trainmen
and passengers were all on their guard.
When the train arrived at Salina,
pretty good looking and rather stalwart
man jumped off the train. He walked
straight to a hack and was driven mp
town few minutes later he came
tearing up to the depot; having walked
back. DO you fellows know where my
purse isl" said he, rather eXcitedly.
s'No? Well, by Jove. l guess somebody
around here must know I'm dead broke
now. Went to pay the hickman up
town and couldn't md my purse Thus
he stOrmed around at a terrible rate.
f'Well, my name is George Hawkins of
Lincoln and there was 1886 in that
purse. If you find it forward it to me.
"AH right, but say" said Operator
Hart with a smile, You didn't hide it
away on account of the train robbers did
your"
A grateful astonished expression first
spread itself over Hawkins face which
was soon followed by a roar of laughter
such as man can only give when he is
laughing at himself. He reached down
and pulled from under his sock the
purse in question.

1.-THE santa Fe'' Fountain Pen.

ut he Santa Fe" Fountain Pen they say,
Is TO the pens and quilts of yOre.
As the lightning express of today
Is to the tally-ho coach and four.
"The Santa Fe'' Pen is neat and clean,
1t saves you the trouble of dipping.
Stains your hands will never be seen,
Nor ink on your desk will be dripping.
Dear old inkstands, where flies go swimming,
Where they die and are dyed IN the ink,
Their bodies so oft we are Swimming
And will never dare tell what we think.
From this fountain great blessings will flow.
Thoughts that will burn in the hearts of men
If blessings you'd have then at once go
Up to Fridays and buy pen.

TO PROTECT EMPLOYEES
The New Federal Law In Regard
to Freight Cars
GOES INTO EFFECT NEXT MONTH.

Some miscellaneous Railroad News
of Interest in Kansas-P PERSONALS
nnd shop Notes.
On July all railways under the juris-
diotion of the interstate laws will come
under the jurisdiction of two sections OF
the car coupler law passed by congress
in 1898 The law regarding car couplings
does not go into effect until 1898, but
these two sections will go into effect next
month. It will affect every railroad rum
ming into Topeka
Section of the law requires that
freight cars engaged in interstate com
MERGE shall be provided with handholds
or grab irons on the sides and ends OF
all cars.
Section 5 requires that all cars shall be
of standard height of draw bar, which Is
fixed for thirty-four aud One-half inches
when the car is empty and thirty one
and a half inches when the car is loaded
1t is made an offense to haul any cars
not so equipped and the penalty is made
500 for each offense and the United
States district attorney is authorized to
prosecute.
If the railroads do not comply with the
law employees injured because the cars
are not equipped as required will doubt
less use this fact in suits for damages.

FOR WOMEN'S WEAR.

COLLARS of ribbon and lace are in general use. The one object in making up these collars is to evolve some orig inal idea either in shape, trimming or combination.
 GAUZE ribbon ruchings are very much liked for trimmings, especially in black on dark materials. There is nothing softer and prettier than gauge ruch ing of black for the collar of cape or a wrap.
 RIBBON ruchings are made by plating two or two-and-a-half-inch ribbon in box plaits at one edge. This is set upon wide turned-over collars of velvet. Some of these collars have revers ex- tending to the waist line, and the rib bon plating is graduated to about half it's width as it extends down the front.
 THE use of ribbons is universal, and the variety to choose from is endless. Striped or brocaded gauge edged velvet ribbons, velvet-edged gauge ribbons. brocaded in velvet, and taffeta with brocaded stripes are among the novel ties. The Dresden ribbons are growing more popular, and summer dresses ot silk and wool will be profusely trimmed with them

CAM. KING IN TROUBLE.

 Too Long.

He Allowed a Cutthroat Note to Run
 Too Long.
 The Phoenix Gazette has the follow ing to say of Cameron H. King for years a resident of this place and we'll remem- bered for his sociability as we'll as his shortcoming:
 All Pboenicians of @ few years resi- dence will remember Cameron H. King. He was one of the compilers during the Fourteenth legislatures of the Revised Statutes of Arizona and was appointed by Gov. Zulick to be commissioner of immigration, succeeding Patrick Hamil- ton and holding office about year.
 King has been practicing law in San Francesca for the past few years, and 1t would appear has met with financial success. Last Tuesday judgment was secured in San Francisco court against him by Asa Fink, notorious local Shy lock for S310 on a promissory note, with interest of S1 1902 and counsel fee of S5. The note was issued on March 2l, 1890, and King gave hIs law lib. Rry as securi- ty, on chattel mortgage.
 Judge Murphy states that he gave judgment in the case very much against his will, as he wes not in favor of inter- est at 3 per cent month, compounded monthly.
 MT. Fisk made no reply to the. criti- cism, but contentedly walked away with bis judgment.

Of Interest to CattIemen,

Fort Worth is on the boom, the Cuda- by Packing Company of Omaha and Chi cago have placed several buyers there to purchase Arizona, New Mexico and Mex ico and Texas cattle, as they go east, with view to canning beef on a large scale, The Fort Worth Packing Con- pany received an order from the East man Packing Company, of New York to purchase and kill all the canners they can get, theee buyers are prepared to pay all the northern markets will justify, and the cattlemen would do well to try the Fort Worth market, thereby saving quite an item in freight and shrinkage which occurs in shipping to rorthern markets.
 It is rumored that the Texas ard Pa citic are in this deal and that they pro- pose to help the cattlemen out, as their line has more un0ccupied pasturage now than for seven years, and inducements will be made to get these pasture occu- pied and the Fort Worth Packers SUD- piled. Such action on the part of Fl Paso's favorite line will certainly re- dound to the interest of El Paso, and what Fl Paso now needs is large union stock yards so that buyers will come to this city to purchase Mexico, New Mex ico and Arizona cattle.-El Paso Times.

was sttentively observing him. He summoned up all his energy and closed his eyes.
 Suddenly the lever moved, the plank was lowered the neckpiece adjusted, the button touched and 8 gleam of the knife descended between the posts. A terrible collision shook the platform. The horses reared at the magnetic odor of the blood and the echo of the thud was still perceptible, when already the bleeding head of the victim throbbed in the steady hands of the clebrated surgeon, colOring with a darkened stream his fingers, wrist bands and clothing. It was agloomy face, horribly white, with the open eyes of an absent minded person twisting eye brows and a shriveled grin; the rows of teeth were striking each other; the chin had been cut st the inner extremity of the inferior jaw-bone.
 Velpean quickly leaned forward to- ward the head and uttered in its right ear the question agreed upon. The re- suit made even thIs man, firm and steady though he was, tremble with a sort of cold terror: the eye-lid of the right eye was lowered, the left eye, wide open, was staring at him.
 "In the name of God and our being, twice more this signw cried he some what distracted.
 The eye-lashes made a slight moye- ment as by an internal effort, but the eye-lid did not rise. The face, from second to second. became more rigid, clay like, motionless. All was over.
 Doctor Velpesn returned the dead head to MT. Hendrich who, according to custom placed it between the legs of the already inert body.
 The great surgeon washed hIs hands in one of the buckets used for the clean ing of the machine and then, while the mass of the people dispursed in every direction, he walked slowly, apparently in deep thought, towards his carriage which awaited him at the corner of the prison.
 As he was mounting be observed the prison wagon rolling towards the burial ground of Montparnasse.

scenes of busy life ss IS evidenced by the surface work done; ruined hRbitations of man that are everywhere to be met with and the Ubiquitous srastra in which he crushed hls ores and from whose slimy bed he drew the yellow gold. But it was not aloIe in the crests of these lodges that the ancient miner delved, but below them and about them. both men and women, Christian and pagan, have wrought with pick and pan for more than 8 hundred years. The transition of the great quartz belts that spanned the hills to 'placer ground" through the disintegratlng influences of time, may have been slow, but it was none the less wide and far reaching for the earth, for miles whereabouts, is en- riched with gold, not always in paying quantities, but the color is ever there. To dry wash, or winnow, this ground has during long interval of time given employment to thousands of people, and still the gold is there and still from it the Mexican and Indian miners supply their daily needs.
 All of the lodges that were rich at the surface have developed with depth. The great gold belts of the Baboquivari and Old Gro Blanco dis tIlCt6 Iuc NulSoo anu Ill bJ16 Grant group of mines not less than seventeen we'll defined veins appear at at the surface. The day is not distant when this same gold belt will be the cynosure1of capital and when developed it will turn out more wealth than even the famous Comstock in It's palmiest days. This picture of future greatness is not overdrawn for the lodges are there and these lodges contain enough gold in their rocky bosoms to make state rich and they will do it yet.
 The Grant group Of mines with which we deal today are located on the east ern end of the Guigss range, and of which we herewith present a map. These properties after thousand vissi- tudes finally came into the hands of Messrs Bent and Sampson their present owners, and by whom development work has been done as their means permitted. Unfortunately for the country, as we'll as themselves these, means have been limited and it now remains for others with sufficient capital to push the good work ahead. The Grant group is splendid property for strong comp any and eventually it must pass to such hands. This fact Is now realized by it's owners and an effort to dispose of the group will presently be made. It prom

OoPyfkhtous loSo, Oy w. J. OsteI.
 ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, June 8-My last bulletin gave forecasts of the storm wave to cross the continent from June 18th to 17th and the next will reach the Pacific coast about the 18th, cross the west of Rockies comntry by close of the 18th, great central valleys 10th to 22d and eastern states 23d.
 This storm wave will inaugurate the warm period of the month and the storms will be of more than the usual | force.
 The storm center will take a northern route and indications of drouth will prevail ever the middle and southern states but these drouth conditions will be changed, extensively, before the close of the month and copious showers will fall in many places.
 The last eight days of June will also be noted for great extremes of tempera- ture with probability of light frosts on the northern borders of the United States.
 Light frosts iD the northern parts of the northern states in all the summer months IS an expected feature of this remarkable crop season.
 Warm wave will cross the west of the Rockies country about the 18th, great central valleys the 20th and eastern states the 22d. Cool wave will cross the west of Rockies country about the 21st, great central valleys the 23d and eastern states the 25th.
 Indications now are that conditions will be favorable to the sowing of fall grain but calculations are..not sufficient ly complete to indicate to growing con- ditions of 1S96 1 will probably be able to give this information ln July of thls year.
 As promised I will publish in the bulletin of June 29th the general characteristics of the coming winter which will begin with very cold De- cember.

How to Treat a Man.

A horse tells now to treat 8 man in in the following language: "When a man drops from sheer exhaustion or ill., ness promptly seize an end board or cart stake, and pound him on the head and on the ribs. If this does not recupe- rate him, kick him violently in the belly. This treatment will restore him if per sistently administered. If man finds his load too heavy and feels that 1t will strain him, kick off fence board and knock him down-and hammer him thoroughly with the board. This will give him renewed energy and he will make DO more fuss. But do not on any account, tighten the load; that would look too much like common sense. If @ man refuses to drink when you offer him water, don't give him any more for two days. That will teach him. ."-Ex.
