Among the letters of cOngTatulatiOn that
Senator Leedy has received there is one
he prizes more highly than the others, yet
the writer will not have vote for many
years to come. During a session at To-
peka Senator Leedy saw a number of news
/ boys running from the depot to the cap
itOl with papers, They were fieet-fOGted
little fellows, and all except one were able
to keep up with the crowd. He was only
years old, and if he ever sold a paper it
was by the merest accident, because all Of
the boys beat him to the State house. The
| little neWsboy always took his business
misfortune bravely however, and this at
/ tracted Senator Leedys attention. He
thought that q boy Of that age who would
not cry when he mad the best cause in the
world to cry deserved TO sell as many
papers as the rest.
One day coming out of the Senate cham
Der, Senator Leedy hailed the little fellow
and bought a paper of him. The boy was
greatly surprised and exhibited a lively
sense Of gratitude.
Nov, ] Will buy a paper Of you every
/ day, and I want you to bring it to me in
the Senate chamber"
with that he gave the little fellow a
pass to the Senate and took occasion 70 let
the other Senators know that he would
take it uHkindly If any Of the big boys were
given passes. The result was that the
writer Of the letter, fac smile Of which
is given herewith, sold as many papers as
the other boys, and is loud In his praises
of Senator Leedy. Here is what he says in
his letter, the reference TO making his legs
/ longer being one Of Senator Leedy's aphor-
isms:
Topeka. Kan. Aug. g, 1896.
Senator Leedy: I just jumped up and
down when I heard you were nominated for
/ Governor. And I hope you viii be elected
this fall. / could have written you next
day. But was acting as cash boy for a
store till they could put ia the money car
/ riers. I tell you I did not have any one 10
make my leggs longer by giYeing me a pass
on the floor. Your News boy. Yours truly
THOMAS W. MARTIN.

Illustrative Of the tactics employed By
Senator Leedy during his career as Senator,
the following incident viii be Of interest
to Kansas voters who Eant q man shFeUa
enough 20 cope with the skilled politicians.
One DAY Senator Leedy came 10 the con-
ciusi0H that the State Of Kansas had no
need Of a State veterinary surgeon when
there was one at the Agricultural college
who could perform all the duties Of the
State veterinarian.
'T'm going to get rid Of this horse doe
tor" he said 10 one OF his colleagues. True
to his word, he shortly afterFard intro
dUced q bill TO abolish the once Of State
veterinary surgeon The salary Of the vet
erinarian was 8 $50 a year. There was also
a contingent fund on which he could draw
for expenses. This made the total cost 70
the State about $3.50 a year The State
veterinary surgeon had a pull, however, and
the sanitary and live stock commission took
a hand ia the fight. Senator Leedy warned
the members OF the commission 60 keep
of his preserves and not 90 be lobbying
against mis- biz. The hght Ta1ed warm

Senator Leedy, am a railroad man and
I want to know If it is true that you worked
for the Missouri Pacific or any other rail-
road corporation for iOng time before you
became a politician. There are number
OF other railFOaders who want to know the
same thing, but II Is not always the best
way TO hold G position to ask such ques-
tons"
The speaker interrupted Senator Leedy's
perusal Of a newspaper, but the query
seemed to be more amusing than the, car
toon at which Leedy had been looking.

CLEVELAND CONFERENCE.

Cleveland. o., May 23.-Almost the en-
tire session of the Methodist conference
today was devoted to the election of edi-
tors for the various periodicals.
In the other routine business was in
cludcd the adoption of the report of the
committee on episcOpacy declaring Mis-
sionary Bishop Taylor of the African field
nOn-effective. and recommending his re-
tirement. Such report has been pre-
pared, as it was agreed upon some days
ago.
Bishop Taylors successor will be elect
ed next week.
The date for final adjournment of the
conference was also fixed for Thursday
the 2Sth inst.
The committee on judiciary decided to-
day that any general bishop may preside
over any annual conference in the mis-
sionary field This is an answer to the
declaration of Bishop Thoburn of lndi-
ana that they can not The question has
arisen whether it is necessary to have
two bishops when conference in Il mis-
sionary field is split in half. The COM
mttce is now wrestling with the subject.
Among the men mentioned TO succeed
Bishop Taylor are Rev. DR.. j. c. Hartsell
of Louisiana. Rev. A. b. Leonard of New
York. Rev. DR.. Henry \. Monroe, colored,

RIOTI\G IN MILWAUKEE.

Milwaukee, Wis. May 24.-Today was
the first Sunday that the Milwaukee
Railway and Electric Light company has
run its cars since the strike was inaugu-
rated, three weeks ago. During the day
there was 10 disturbance, but tonight
cars were freely stoned and cgged
throughout the city. This evening po-
liccman and motorman were struck with
stones and removed to the hospitals.
4 large mob of Poles gathered at Lee
and Brennan streets and attacked the
officers. One policeman was stabbed
Several arrests were made Several
cars were peltcd with bottles of blue
vitrol. muriatic acid. and the clothing of
what few passengers that rode on the
cars were ruined. There We're many ar
rests throughout the city tonight. The
patronage on cars does not improve. and
there is no improvement in the general
boycott of business men Sympathizing
with the strikers.

There are some men in the world, ana
thank God for them, that are impervious
to the poison of the tongue of malice.
They live on a plane so far above the
viper that Kisses at them that they are
safe from its venom. Men who SANDER
and say mean things about such men do
not hurt them, but they hurt themselves.
They cultivate feelings that will rankle
in their own breasts and bring on them
selves the condemnation of the com
munity in which they live or reside tenn
porarily.
1t is not necessary for men OF hlgh
character to defend themselves from the
bitter insinuations of the selfish and I'M
charitable. Their lives. open before the
public, are as wall of defense which
slanderers are unable to scale. Their
characters are so fortified that the arrows
of malice rebound and wound those that
bend the long bow of lies and Of hate.
Thank God for sdch men. Without
them a community would lose its standard
of nobility and fall to the ignomlnious
level Of common slandercrs and defamers
Of good and true men.

\ sham battle and review was to take
place at McAulcy's Point this afternoon
and crowds were making their way
there. All the way the tram cars were
packed. Two cars left Government
street with upward of hundred people.
The first got over Point Ellce bridge,
which crosses at Victoria, safely, but
when the other was about half way over
the middle span of the bridge, about $50
feet in length, gave way and the car
plunged into the water, 100 feet below.
The car was completely submerged and
all on board were drowned. with the ey-
ccption of some of those on the plat
forms, who managed to save themselves
by swimming ashore. Numbers of the
bodies have already been found and the
work OF identification is proceeding. 1t
IS a dlttcult matter, as great many
OF the bodies are those of visitors. So
