Kansas craze to get out Of debt.

PAYING OFF.
Desire of Farm ers to Get Out of Debt
Has Reached the Mania Stage.

Desire of Farm ers to Get Out of Debt
Has Reached the Mania Stage.
From the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
The story of the farmer who went into a
bank at Ell Dorado this week and drew a
pistol on the cashier to make him accept
81 600 and deliver up his mortgage may
seem improbable. But this action was only
an exaggerated instance Of what is going
on all over Kansas. Liquidation" is the
cry. These farmers are as anxious to get
out Of debt as they were to get into debt
few years ago. The new movement
amounts to a mania. Some of the mort
gage companies are trying to check It.
They are demanding affidavits that the
money rendered in payment of a mortgage
was realized from crops raised on land in
numbered before they viii accept II and re-
lease the bond. The state makes 1t OBJ
ligatory on the loanfng company to accept
partial payments on Q mortgage whenever

record goes on to state, the people man
aged at last to make off with several of
these really lucky horse shoes.
Again Berthier, in his memoirs, mentions
that in the doomful days just before the
revolution the aristocracy in their insen-
safe pride We'd with each other in the
grandeur of their equipages, and that it
was quite a common matter to shoe their
horses with silver. The derni monde took
up the fashion, and. as is their wont, went
one better" by having the boxes Of their
wheels and sometimes even the tires of the
same metal, as well as the shoes of their
horses

HER COMPLEX ACCENT.
Girl Whose Way of Speakinp En-

From tie Chicago Tribune
People who are under the impression that
accent betrays not only the nationality but
provincialism as we'll will perhaps be some
what disiilusionized by reading the follow
3ng incident:
The experience Is that of a CHICAGO wo
man who made trip to New York a short
while ago. Up to the time o. her visit 10
the eastern metropolis she supposed that
she spoke fairly good English She read
none but the best authors, and as her
friends were all numbered among the Gull
tUred people there really seemed no reason
why she should not couch her sentiments
In pure substantial Angio-Saxon Neither
did she affect an accent. At least, she was
Eot aware that she did. After arriving I'm
New York, however she learned that she
not only had an accent, but that IL was
many-sided affair that was truly per
picking.
She attended a reception one evening
where literary and artistic people predom-

Peter Casson is a butcher in the prohibl-

ranch and a winery. 1t Is related THAT last
fall he made several thousand gallons of
wine. which he stored in his big YAts. One
holding 800 gallons was reserved for p
higher price. Early in February Cassor
sampled this cask and felt it was going to
be a money maker. The vat had a small
plug that projected near the floor. How
this CHANGED to be pulled out by his herd
Of forty hogs some time that day Casson
does not know. But the following morning
his cask was empty and his hogs wallowed
drunkenly cbout it. Only one was able to
rise to its feet. when 1t fell down again,
completely Jagged.

why wilhelm Doc. Not visit England

Why Wilhelm Docs Not Visit England
From the Literary Digest.
Some excerpts from English publications
which we published in a previous number
show how deeply the people of Great Brit
ain resent the outspoken manner in which
American statesmen occasionally criticise
that country. German papers, on the other
hand, complain that the English people at
large are apt to exhibit the same want Of
moderation OF which the American poll
ticians are accused. The Berlin Tageblatt,
referring to the question asked in some
English papers, why. the German emperor
has ceased to visit England, asserts that
he would be insulted by the popuiace, and
says:
at is harily likely that the emperor will
go to Cowes. The reception given his rep
resentative during the Jubilee parade is
sufficient to prevent 1t. Prince Henry was
treated to haunting remarks. When the
procession passed the Army and Navy Club
in Piccadilly. these impolite remarks be-
came specially noticeable. Among other
things such remarks as, why don't you
send 4 telegram" were shouted at him
referring to the telegram in which the
emperor congratulated President Kruger
upon the failure Of the Jameson raid.

Durrant's Last Appeal.

SACRAMENTO, Nov 9-Before the Su-

appeal standing in the wav of the re-
sentencing of Theodore Durrant for the
murder of Blanche Lamont. The appeal
was one brought by DurranI's attorneys
after the second sentence passed on him,
and was based on the claim that ad-
ditionaI punishment was being inflicted
upon him by the court in ordering him
closely confined in San Quentin prison
pending execution and in the Warden
having cropped his hair short and having
garbed him in prison stripes.
Louis ?. Boardman appeared for Dur
rant and G. n. Post of the Attorney Gen
