IN the welfare of the county. II is
composed of representatives citizens

the usual committees the convention
adjourned until after dinner 10 give
time to report.
There were no contesting delega-

was light, md they all reported i'm

the convention, and the reports were
adopted. The full list OF 81 delegates
were present when the work of nom

1t is quite evident that the party
who hashed mp the republican CON
vention for the Sparks was not pres
ent at the deliberations of that body.
Take the following for instance:
David Barnes of Granada received
the nomination for superintendent in the
same Indifferent and listless manner that
the previous offices had been awarded"
As Mr.. Barnes was the first candi-
date nominated it is quite evident
that the Sparks made a slip about
those previous Offices. But we ought
not to mention it as no one expects
that paper to tell anything straight.

SUNDAY CYCLE RIDING.
Lack of Attendance at Sunday Schools
Attributed TO the Wheel.

Boston. May 25.-AIr. Arthur Mason
presided at the 18th anniversary of the
Universalist Sunday School union in
the Every Day church last evening.
The exercises opened with prayer by
the Rev. P. P. Coddington of Somer-
VILE Reports followed That of the
secretary, Mr.. Frank B. Endicott show
ed that the union is composed of 10
schools in Boston and vicinity, contain
ing 500 teachers and officers, and 3.138
scholars. The average attendance of
the former have been IS per cent; of
scholars 68 per cent.
The report of the secretary, showing
a decrease of the attendance at some of
the Sunday schools, on motion of the
Rev. Mr.. Keiser, the subject was taken
up and one member said he thought
that it was due to the bicycle. as he
noticed pleasant Sundays that the at
tendance was smaller than stormy days
when it was bad riding. He thought
the schools should be made more at
tractive than the wheel.

A WORD FOR THE RICH.
This Unhappy Glass Defended by Gov.
Black. of New York

New York, May 25.-Gov. Black is a
friend of the miIlionaires. He cannot
be said to be the friend of the working
man. Taxes in New York are largely
paid by real estate. The poor man does
not own real estate, but his rent is
based on taxes. 1t was proposed to in
crease the inheritance tax in order to
make the wealthy pay their part of the
states burdens, in view of the enorm-
Gus personal property annually kept off
the tax list by fraud. A bill to accom-
push this has been vetoed by Governor
Black. His message is lengthy, but
these are the keynotes:
Right of suffrage is carried too far.
Dangerous elements from abroad are
yearly Vaccinated into our population.
Restlessness is far too prevalent. Leg
1slatures are seldom too conservative
1t is not true that the rich are growing
richer and the poor poorer. Poverty is
not increasing. Hard times comes from
a too liberal way of living. The rich
do not receive greater protection from
the government than the poor. People
OF moderate means depend very large
~ upon the government for school ia
cilities and fire and police protection.
Tn" rich protect themselves and edu-
cate their children. Charities are cheif-
~ endowed by the rich solely for the
benefit of the poor. Millions of money
brought here every year must not be
kept aWav by an unwise and unjust
policy. If such a tax as this could be
passed, any other might be-"

RELIGIOUS INSANITY
Leads Farmer Smith to Beat His
Wife and Children.

William r. Smith, a farmer who has
been living on West Tenth street, near
California avenue was adjudged insane
in the probate court yesterday after
noon and taken to the Topeka asylum.
Smith has been in the asylum before,
having been sent there in 1880, and has
been at liberty but about three years.
He has a. wife and several children and
since his release from the asylum has
been farming.
Smith is insane on the question of re-
ligion. He believes that he has com
mitted an objectionable sin, and at
times tries to atone for it by beating
his wife and children. During the past
few days his insanity has taken a viO-
lent turn, and when Deputy Sheriff
Larry Sheehan went to the house to
bring Smith to the probate court, he
was unable to handle him even with
the assistance of several neighbors.
Sheehan telephoned for Under Sheriff
Lucas, and the two officers finally
brought the man to the court house in

MAYOR STRONG SHOOTS.
Has Go at Live Pigeons With Gen.

ger with greater success than many a
man of half his years Yesterday he Wis

CRIPPLE CREEK REFORM.
Gambling and Disorderly Houses
Have Been Closed.

Cripple Greek, May 25.-Gambling was
stopped in Cripple Greek at an early hour
this morning, and with it the houses in
the tenderloin district put up their bars
The cause of these two sudden reforms
is due to no spasm of morality. 1t is the
outcome of a fight in the city governs
rnent. The order to close came to the
gamblers from City Marshal Peter Eales
at opening time this morning. The click
of the chips at the faro layout and the
whirl of the roulette ball have not been
heard in Cripple Creek today. The scar
let curtains of Meyers avenue fronts were
closely drawn all day.
After midnight last night Mayor Geo.
Pearce. guided by reporters on local
newspaper in opposition to the methods
of the police department, went to place
below the Florence & Cripple Creek shops
that was reported to be run as a hop
joint by w. Thompson. Evidence deemed
sufficient to show the character of the
place was found in opium pipes, lamps
and couches for the smokers. The house
was raided by the mayor and two occu-
pants arrested.
