ANTHONY STILL LLFIGHTING Free Soil, Secession, Salvation Army. Bricks Much More Deadly than
 Bullets.
Editor of the LeavenWorth Times Enjoys Himself for the First
 Time In Five Years

The Kansas City Star says: Ensign Dodds of the Salvation Army is an Englishman. He is not familiar with Kansas history. Besides, he is trifle deaf Thus it came to pass that he witlessly halted the army under the windows of Colonel Anthony's Leaven- worth Times office last Tuesday even ing. In consequence thereof, Colonel Anthony's five years fast from chas- tising and being chastised with all manner of deadly weapons was broken. The period from his combat with Cap tain Fortescue to his being Init on his 'beetling nose by a man of hymns and prayer, was the longest period of ibloodlessness during the one-haf cen tury of Colonel +Anthony's public life. The spectacular and entertaining part of these circumstances is that the proprietor and editor-in- chief of The Times is Colonel Daniel Reed An thony, brother of Susan B. Anthony, the apostle of woman suffrage. The colonel is 75 years old, scarred with pistol wounds, but a lion still, and one of the few intact and intrinsic relics of 'fthe times that tried mems souls" In fact, Colonel Anthony of Leavenworth, of Kansas and of America, is a simon pure, genuine and original remark able character" He was the first man to pull down a secession flag and he killed the man who criticised his act; as lieutenant colonel of the Seventh Kansas volunteer cavalry, he issued an emancipation proclamation away ahead of President Lincoln; he fought as a soldier in the battle of the Blue, near Kansas City; he has since fought with pistol and club and fist, all com CTS in so many encounters that no one man in Leavenworth can recall all of them and he is still, when going on 76 years of age, full of invective and fight
 Colonel Anthony is the only living combination of John Brown of Osa- watomie and John Randolph of Roa- noke. He is the remaining Puritan 1re-eater. Even in these piping times of peace everybody in Leavenworth is afraid of him. At 75 years of age he is still terrible and relentless, and speaks in a voice of thunder. To use his own words:
 T have let many persons escape of late years because my wounds make me incapable of resisting physical force. would be forced to use re- volvers and it is not pleasant nowa- days to shoot people"
 Colonel Anthony has conducted a newspaper in Leayenworth ever since the border wars that ushered in the civil war. There are only a few news paper men of his type left in the United States.
 There are men still living in Leav- enworth who witnessed the encounter between Satterlee, the Missourian, and Anthony, the Puritan. Anthony went up the Missouri river to place called Iatan, near Weston, and, when he re- turned, wrote an extensive and orna- mental account of how he had at Iatan torn down a secession flag. Satterlee who ran The Herald in the interest ot the pro-slavery people, replied in z p1cturesQuely scurrilous editorial. The word was passed:
 "They will kill each other on sight.
 Anthony came along the street, Sat terlee came down his sanctum stairs pipe in mouth. Satterlee drew a der, ringer. The two enemies, who repre- sented conflicting causes, fired simul taneously. Satterlee had expended hi. one shot and ran back up the stairs He met his wife at the top of tht stairs. At the same moment Antihony fired from below and the tall youns Missourian fell dead in the arms of hi wife.
 In 1862, while lieutenant colonel o the First Kansas cavalry, Anthon. braved his superior officers and tn, whole war department and was unde arrest until congress interfered Hap pening, one fine day, to be in com mand of brigade at Camp Etherage Tenn, he issued order No. 26. declar ing:
 1. The impudence and impertinenc of the open and armed rebels, traitors secessionists and southern-righ men in arrogantly demanding the right t search our camp for fugitive slaves ha become a nuisance and will no longe be tolerated.
 ''2. Should any such person be foun, within our lines he will be arrested.
 "3 Any officer or soldier who shal arrest and deliver to his master fugitive slave shall be summarily an severely punished.
 Upon refusing to countermand thi order, Colonel Anthony was under ar rest until congress wanted to kno1 about 1t, and then the pre-Lincol emancipator was restored to his com mand. Being restored, he resigned Why" he asked, should I fight t
