A Shooting at Hoisington.

Il. M. Kniseley, city marshal of Hois-
ington was Brought over Monday night
and lodged in Jail on chargs Of shoot
ing ]. A. Hall, liyeryman Of that place,
with intent to kill.
A DEMOCRAT reporter called on Mr..
Kniseley at the Hotel de Spencer Tues
day and CLEANED his version of the af-
fair as follows:
II had gun on my shoulder and was
on my way down to Justice Lytie's to
shoot a dog, at Mr.. Lytle,s request.
While passing Halls livery barn he
accosted me accusing me Of being in
quest Of his dog for the purpose of kill
ing it. [ disclaimed any such intention
and Hall abused and struck me. got
out warrent for his arrest, when he
resisted me, knocking me down. He
was standing over me when fred at
at him. I had no intention of doing
anything further than protect myself,
and being crippled could do SO in no
other Way.''
We learn that Hall is not dangerous
ly injured. The bullet, a 3S calibre,
entered his right breast and followed
the ribs around his right side, lodging
near the surface, where it was found
and extracted. We know nothing
about the case further than Mr.. Knis-
ley's statement as above given.
Mr.. Kniseley's bond was fixed at
S15, 900 which he was unable to furnish.

anywhere: city or country. They all

the successful ones of plundering the
people. The law fixes the salaries of
county officers and fixes the price of
legal printing. 1t has long been a
question why officers who never fail
to take the salary allowed them by
law, should be forever trying to cut
down the prices of printing that are
fixed by law. But the fault lies sole
ly with the printers themselves. This
eternal bowling ofrObhery by printers
W no fail TO get the work, has caused
people to think that printers receive
three or four times as much for work
as it is worth. But they dOnOt. The
n ewspaper business is so terribly over
done that some papers will do work
for next to nothing in order to exc out
a miserable existence, and will howl
robbery" against the papers that are
so fortunate as to receive half decent
pay. We have a mighty poor opinion
of men who will thus run down their
own business. They belong to the
species of foul birds that deiile their
own nests. The legal rate Of printing
is none too high. The printer who
publishes the official ballot in his pa
per, as prescribed by law, is entitled
to measure it at legal rate, counting
it as nonpareil. and he commits neith-
er perjury nor robbery in doing so.
We do it and feel that we are doing
right. Printing the ballots is also
tremendously big job, and is worth a
good sum of money. The county board
of this county pays these bills without
higgling or cutting down. For some
years this printing matter has been
quiet in this county, but in most of
the counties it is so every year. We
really think that some county boards
are very small in this business of cut
ting down the bills Ofprinters. They
seem DESTROYS of gaining some cheap
reputation for economy by cutting
down the bills OF newspaper publish
er s. that do more for the public good
without pay than any other class of
DeODle

FOR MODERN COOKING.

AS matter of useful information it
may be stated that whenever a cook
ing receipt calls FOR a baking powder
the ''Royar' should be used. The
receipt will be found TO work surer
and better. and the bread, biscuit,
rolls, cakes, dumplings, crusts, pud-
dings. crullers, or whatever made.
will be produced sweeter, lighter finer
favored, more dainty, palatable and
wholesome. Besides, the Royal"
will go farther, OF has greater leaven-
ing power, and is therefore more
economical than any other powder.
Many receipts as published still call
fol cream-of-tartsr and soda, the old
fashioned way of raising. Modern
cooking and expert cooks do not sane
ton this old way. In all such receipts
the Royal Baking Powder should be
substituted without fail.
The greatest adopts in the culinary
a 1t are particular to use the loyal
only. and the authors of the most pop
u lar cook books and the teachers of
the successful cooking schools, with
VIII ON the best results are comparative,
are careful to impress their readers
and pupils with the Importance of its
exclusive employment.
The Royal Baking Powder is the
g reatest help of modern times to per-
feet cooking, and every receipt requir-
in q a embarrassing Ingredient should
embody it.

QUICKER TIME TO CALICO RN1l

OF course it is via the Santa Fe
Route-greatest railroad on earth
To be strictly accurate, we should say:
quicker time to California.
You can now leave home in the
morning and take solid train of Pull
man and tourist sleepers at Ottawa
the same afternoon via Emporia for
Los Angeles and San Francisco.
Only So hours (24 days,) Ottawa to
Los Angeles. That beats going over
land by wagon, the way they did
years ago.
Talk it over with local Santa Fe
Agent, and ask him for free copy of a
pretty book, "To California and Back. d"
You see we expect you to come back
some time over the Santa Fe Route.

THE YEAR

The Egyptians, it is said, were the
first who fixed the length Of the year.
The Roman year was introduced by
Romulus, 73S B. c., and it was cor
rected by Numa, 7l3 B. c., and again
by Julius Caesar, 10 Is. C, who fixed
the solar year as being S65 days and
6 hours. This was denominated the
Julian Sly lie, and prevailed generally
throughout the Christian world till
the time of Pope Gregory NH. The
calendar of Julius Cesar was defective
in this particular, that the solar year
consist ed of 365 days, ) hours and 40
minutes, and not Of Sos days, hours.
This difference at the time of Gregory
XIII had amounted to 10 entire days.
To obviate this error Gregory ordain-
ed in 1852 that that year should con-
sist of 365 days only; and in 175I it
was ordered to be so used in England;
and the next year IL days were left
out, the Sd of 5 eptember, 1852, being
reokOned as the 18th, so as to make ii
agree with the Gregory calendar.

A GREAT BOOK

We spoke briefly last week of Rev.
Francis E. Clark's new book, "Our
Journey Around the World" Since
then we have examined the work
with greater care and are still more
impressed with its interest and value.
The journey which is described was
taken by DIR. Clark and his wife and
occupied more than year, taking
them over $4,000 miles by sea and
land. They had rare opportunities
for study and observation, and the re-
suit is all put down in this book in a
most graphic style.
The reader is personally conducted
through Australia, India, China,
Japan, Egypt, Palestine, Turkey, and
many other lands. We see these
countries through American eyes, and
obtain a perfectly clear view of them
and their people, supplemented by
two hundred and twenty splendid
illustrations from photographs, most
of which were taken by DIR. Clark
himself; for he carried a complete
photographing outfit with him.
Their route led across the land that
Joseph gave to his father and breth-
rem; past the very fields where the
Israelites made bricks without straw,
and along the highways where once
rollsd the chariOts of the PharaOhs.
Much time was spent in the museum
of Bulsk (Egypt)-the most wonder
full museum in all the world where
may now be seen the mummy Of the
Pharaoh who oppressed the Children
of Israel. The story OF the discovery
of Pharaoh's mummy among those Of
forty other mummies of kings, queens
and princes found in the royal mortu-
