OF all the frauds that has ever dis
graced her sex, Mrs. Lease stands pre-
eminently alone. a masculine woman
without a single feminine character
iStic; masculine in form, feature and
expression: a confessed preyaricator;
bold, vulgar and vain. Mrs. Lease
has done more to retard the progress
of her sex in Kansas than all other
adverse agencies combined, and all
the suffragistS in the state have not,
by tongue or pen, been able to cOun-
teract her baneful influence AS a
living example of public and political
women, she has disguised everybody,
even her own party and her own sex.
These are harsh words to apply to a
woman, and we wish to be understood
as saying them in the spirit of kind
ness and respect only, for the true
woman who is unlike her in every
virtue and every characteristic that
goes to make up the modest, womanly
woman whom we all yenerate and adj
mire. The contrast only emphasizes
her loneliness and purity while the
opposite is shown in its bold and hide
Gus deformity. We sincerely con-
graduate the sex that the Lease type
of woman is very rare in Kansas.

THE conclusion of the long wrangle
over the senatorShip in Delaware has
attracted considerable attention in
Washington, because of its possible
bearing on the question of whether
the senate shall or shall not be reor-
ganized when congress meets. The
general impression is that the demo-
cratic acting governor of Delaware
was wrong in claiming the right to
exercise at one and the same time
the functions of senator and governor,
and that his vote in the last ballot for
senator was illegal. Accepting that
view of the case Col. Dupont will be
admitted to the senate as successor to
Mr.. Higgins. Senator Sherman said
on the subject: '>Mr. Dupont will, in
my judgment, be seated assuming
that Governor Watson, when he cast
his vote as senator, was the then
governor Of the state of Delaware .
In other words, Mr.. Sherman doesn't
see how one man can be a state sena-
tor and at the same time governor OF
state. Do you?

Religion everywhere. The revival is
all the CO." was the passing remark of
stranger to a city minister yesterday.
The occasion was the marching of the
Salvation army for the morning meet
ing led by Major Cole. No matter where
you drop the major he always lands
on his feet. He is at home at the bar
racks or in the parlor meeting
In the afternoon the United Presby-
terian church was crowded to Is ut
most and good results were sen.
AT tn evening meeting in the NJ. E.
church, standing room was at a pre-
MUM. The militia were present and
occupied front seats. TIL evangelist's
wife who has been unable to attend all
of the meetings was present and led in
prayer An overflow meeting was held
in the parlors. Major Cole did not Go
much preaching but called upon some
of the recent converts to talk. Mr.
Crouch said that his old associates in
stead OF laughing at him came and
asked MIN to pray for them. Mr.. Bur-
rows called upon those who doubted TO
come and see.
Mr.. Rice told how he had been out
to see an old friend who was sick. He

for Zion. "Harve pray for me-" was
the answer. Mr.. Gordon was called
upon last. Major Cole met him seven
years ago in Sedalia, Mo-, where he was
holding meetings. He said. II was not
a gambler, was not a drunl<ard, l was
not profane man, i was worse than
all. l was an infidel. I did not believe
in God. l did not believe in Eereaf-
ter" He TIM told how he had come
TO the meetings and was still in doubt.
In response to one of the jor'S nivi-
tations he said that he thought of his
mother, ,he arose to his feet and that in
slant he knew he was saved. One evil
dence of tn sincerity of those who have
taken a start in these meetings is the
earnestnesS with which they go to their
old comrades and ask them to follow
Mr.. Colt told how he had gone with
several others to give an encouraging
call to some women who had determin-
ed to lead a better life. Major Cole then
asked evry woman in the house who
would help such to rise.
This afternoon Major Cole will be at
the Lincoln street Presbyterian church
at 3 o'clock. A meeting of the converts
will be held at the NJ. T.. church this
morning. Noon prayer meetings and
afternoon cottage meetings are being
held in various parts of the city. Judge
Reed in response to the invitation eX-
tended to the bar has asked them to
meet at 7:15 D. m. and go with him to
this evenings service.
The ministers all say the city is being
aroused and they never saw anything
like it before.

HE CHARGED TOO MUCH.
Hackdriyer Takes a Curious Route to the
Depot.

A fourteen year old girl at the Rock
Island depot yesterday claimed that
she had been swindled. Word was
sent into police headquarters and Chief
Cone sent Officer Wood TO investigat tie
the case.
Officer Wood found the young girl
at the Rock Island depot. She related
that she had been working for a family
out at Cheney for one dollar a week.
That she had received her money and
concluded to visit her parents who lived
north of Wichita.
The girl told Officer Wood that she
was unacquainted with the city and
that when she got off at the Santa Fe
depot she told hack driver that she
wished to go to the Rock Island depot
She got in his hack and was driven
quite a distance and landed st the
Rock Island depot, for which he charS-
ed her fifty cents. While waiting for Il
train she ascertained that the depot
from which she had ben brought was
scarcely 800 feet away from the Rock
Island depot.
Officer Wood trailed the hack and
found that from the Santa Fe depot it
had been driven west on Douglas, north
on Fourth, east on Second TO Meade
and thence south to the Rock Island
depot. Wood ran the man down and
arrested a driver named EckleS VINO

nance regulating hack hire.
