Wounds

Chicago. Nov. 30.-Patrick Hartford, one
of the policemen wounded in the Hay
market riot and a pensioner of the police
department, died at the county hospital
last evening. It is believed that his wound
had something to do with his taking off at
this time.
Hartford was shot in the right leg, the
left thigh and had three toes of the left
foot blown off by the explosion of a bomb.
Mr.. Hartford was born in Boston in
1850. In 1880 he came to Chicago and five
years later joined the police force. He was
assigned to the Desplaines street station
and on the night of the riot was in the
third company, fifth man in the 'front.'
rank. The company was commanded by
Lieutenant Bowler. nov stationed atMax-
well street. The first bomb thrown took
away Hartford's toes.
Soon after the riot he was retired by
the police pension board.

THE ELKS IN TURMOIL.
Silk Stockings and Sons of Honest
Toll, Shifting Hip and Thigh.

Yesterday afternoon people who were
walking along Kansas avenue had the
following bill thrust into their hand:
Vote for McManus, the working
mans friend, Kinney is the tool of the
corporations"
Nobody knew what it meant unless
they were Elks. The two named gen
tlemen are candidates for the highest
authority in the gift of the Elks Both
of them wish to be the Lord High De
Homer and to WELD the snickersnee
The friends of McManus claim that
his title, THE Due De Paree'' should
be sufficient to give him the office, but
the friends of Kinney, THE SIeuth of
the Santa Fe," think that he would
look well if dressed in a little brief
authority.
The importers of McManus stole a
march on the supporters Of Kinney and
got out the hand bill with the intention
of spelling the reputation of Kinney
among the workingmen who belong to
the Ell1s- Lee Jones is the leader of
the ''Workingmen's Clique" of the EIks
being a hard toiler'' himself, and
since the poster he is bitter in denOunc-
ing Kinney as the cats paw of the
| mighty corporation Kinney expects
to call a meeting, and some resolutions
viii be passed.

Topeka May Yet Have a Good
Ball Team.
James Manning Offers to Sell
His st. Joe Franchise.
Has Permission of the League to
Transfer His Team to Any Town
He Cares To-Makas Topeka
an CEsr

The base ball loving people of Tope-
ka have a slight hope left that Topeka
may be represented in the Western As
ISOLATION next season. At the Cedar
Rapids meeting November IS there was
no representative from Topeka and the
business of the meeting was carried
out with no mention Of topeka ana
there was no pains taken to leave d
loop hole where Topeka could squeeze
into the circuit next year. Neverthe-
less, a loop hole was left and If the pro-
motors of the base ball agitation, that
died a peaceful and quiet death few
weeks ago, will come to the front and
do some good hard ruStlinS Topeka can
be represented. The following extract
from a letter written by James Man
ming, manager of the Kansas City and
St. Joe teams, explains the situation:
I DO not think 1 will manage the st.
Joe club the coming season as 1 intend
deVOting my whole time to the Kansas
City club. 1 am now in correspondence
with st. Joe and Sioux City people who
are anxious to purchase the (St. joel
club will listen to a proposition from
the Topeka people if they wish to make
me one. am in position to give
them winning club with reasonable
salary limit
At the Cedar Rapids meeting it was
decided to allow Manning to transfer
his st. Joe club to any town he saw fit
He therefore has the right to sell the
club ana the franchise to any city that
is within the proper distance from the
OlAlGI CLUBS on the circuit. II ne goes
not wish to sell he can transfer the
club and manage it himself. Mr.. Man
ning'S idea is to give up the manage
ment of the club, as he says in his let
ter, and if Topeka wants the club the
Topeka people can purchase the fran
chise. The price for the franchise has
not been set but it will probably be
governed by the offers of St. Joe and
Sioux City. W H. Ruff and Charley
McCabe, who probably know as much
about base ball as any other two people
in Topeka, have given their opinions
Mr.. Ruff said: Il think it is a gOOd
chance for Topeka to get the club they
have desired for 50 long. a good club.
1 do not know what the price would be
but the $4,000 that was talked of for
the organization of the club would go
a good ways in this scheme. I am in
favor of looking into the matter. To-
pe1a is large enough to support a good
team and it is time we We're waking
from our Rip VanWin6le Sleep
1t is a good chance" said Chas. Nc
Cabe, IF the price is not too high I'm
less Manning wants an exOrbitant
price think that Topeka can afford to
buy. hope that this will be the means
of Topeka having d club as all the
fans are in favor if a club"
A representative from Topeka will go
to Kansas City in a few days and con-
suit with him on the proposition and it
may be that Topeka will yet have a
club.

out. His subject was THE Presi-
dents Cabinet" He said in part:
when President Washington. our
zeal president, chose his first cabinet,
it was composed of four members
Both jefferson and Randolph, like the
president himself, were from Virginia,
indicating that in those days Virginia
was not only the mother of presidents,
but of about everybody else in public
life.
Those whose lives are made misera-
BILE by thoughts of a reigning aristoc-
racy, will find no aristOcrat in the long
array of cabinet officers. Taking the
first cabinet Jefferson certainly was
not born to aristOcratic aspirations.
Hamilton came to this country an un-
known youth from the island of St.
CrOix; Knox, before the revolution
was a book seller in Boston; Edward
Randolph alone belonged to anything
like a class, the very faint and shad-
owy aristocracy of large landholders
of Virginia, to which Washington be-
longed, and whose members put on no
airs to hurt, and so 1t has gone on
since.
"Of these men who have held the
first places in the American cabinet,
the larger humble have been self-made
men who amounted to something after
they were made. From these begin
nerS have come the men who in their
day were called to advise the preSi-
dents and stand before kings"
