HE PRAISES KANSAS.
Gov. Morrill, is Not ASHAMED of Kan
sas. This Time

Washington, July 16.-Ex-Governor
Morrill, of Kansas is just back from a
visit to his native state of Maine, ana
is full of all manner of pleasant state
rnentS as to Kansas. They are helpful
to the state, because papers here print
what he says, to this effect: kansas
has made one of the largest crops in
her history, and no doubt times will be
much easier With a wheat crop that
will turn out 50, 000, 900 bushels and a
yield of corn that is likely TO reach 200
million bushels If no disaster overtakeS
it, there ought to be very fair meas
ure of prosperity in our state In fact,
our people are ir a very satisfactory
condition now, viewed from a financial
standpoint They hive been paying or
a tremendous amOL ut of Indebtedness
and have reduced their expenditures
wonderfully. Everybody has been prac-
tjcing economy.
Politically. the state is in the hands
of the Populists. but that happens only
by reason of the free silver crusade It
must be said. TOO, that the Popultsts did
not enter on any course Ot radical 1egtS-
la ton directed against capital, as many
feared they would Instead of that
they acted very uloderat tely, and there
by induced a return of confidence on
the part Of moneyed men residing out
side of tive state. With the reStOfa-
ton of q Od times. there can be no
doubt of the extinction Of the silver
agitation, and when that is accomp-
Ifshed Kansas will once more resume
her old position as one of the strongest
Republican states in the Union"

SIC Marrled the Preacher.

Louisville, KY, November %. A
romantic story has just leaked out
concerning the marriage of Rev. E
Lee Craig, former assistant rector OF
Christ Church Cathedral, in this city
and Miss Beatrice Melville, of Jack
son, Miss.
For several years Mr.. Craig has
been pastor of the Episcopal church
in the Mississippi capital, and among
his most charming Pensioners was
Miss Melville, Not long since the
latter's engagement to Memphis
man was announced, and all arrange
ments had been made to have the
happy event solemnized. Rev. Robert
E. Lee Craig was to officiate. Miss
McWillie's trousseau was completed
and her trademarks selected. Mr..
Craig had for some time harbored an
affection for his fair parishioner, who,
it eventually proved, was divided in
her affection between her Memphis
fiance and her reverend lover. The
latter succeeded in persuading Miss
Melville to become Mrs. Craig.
Thursday the event took place,
amid parental objections on the part
of the girls family, and Mr.. Craig
played the part originally planned
for the Memphis man. The happy
couple are now visiting the groom's
mother at Henderson.

Fined For Obstrnetinr Streets.

Freight conductor Geo. Maddox,
in charge of an L. & N. through
freight, was arrested Thursday night
and sent to the lock up charged with
obstructing the crossings on 9th, 18th
and Sth streets for more than eight
minutes. He was tried the next
morning by city Judge Hanbery and
fined $50 and cost.
The conductor denied that he had
obstructed the streets for more than
five minutes and forty five seconds.
He had train of Al cars, some of
which had to be side tracked and it
was while cutting and switching his
train that the trouble occurred.
He claims that he had not INSTRUCTED
any one street oyer the time. Other
evidence before the court, however,
showed that 9th, 7th and Sth streets
had been blocked for more tLan
eight minutes.
The train was left without a conduc-
tor while Maddox was locked up and
general blockade occurred for two
hours, including one mail train.
An appeal will be taken and there
is also talk of suit against the city
for obstructing and delaying the
mail.

Dollar Wheat az chicago.

Chicago, H., Nov. 26,-December
wheat sold at a dollar about ll;3O to-
day. A bulge started in that option
about 10 o'clock which carried it up
steady to 81. 1t was current talk in
the pit that the covering which start,
ed the bulge was done by a bunch Of
small shorts, as traders known to
have out heavy lines showed no signs
of stampeding. The immediate cause
of the jump to 81 was the buying Of
about 100000 bushels by Counsel
man Il Day. After that price was
reached, however, the market dropped
back very quickly to 97s, but another
spasm of covering sent 1t up again to
9Ssc. December bulls sold heavily on
the swell.
