A Kansas Town.

William Allen White in the August
Atlantic: Chiefly by reason of its new
ness and of a certain cosmopolitan as
pect, the Kansas town differs from vii
lagos elsewhere in the United States,
and presents q few interesting varia-
lions from the common type. The
largest town in the commonwealth has
hardly 10000 inhabitants. Most of the
county seats in the eastern half of the
state. where the rainfall is copious. and
where crops are bountiful and regular.
contain about 5000 persons each. The
county seat is in the strictest sense q
country town. The inhabitants live al
most entirely upon the tributary coun-
try There are no factories. The money
that the farmers of the county spend
for food, clothing, fuel and the COM
forts Of the farm home is the cash cap
ital upon which the farm does its bust
ness. This capital is passed from the
grocers TO the clothing merchants, to
the druggists, TO the furniture Dealers
to the hardware sellers. and TO profess
sional men. In the older communities
of the eastern and middle states neces-
sity has developed factories, which con-
vert raw material into finished prod
ucts. and money from the outside world
comes in. But Kansas is yet hardly
generation old and il has not entered
the manufacturing era of Industry.

ISBEN'S CRIMINALS.
Lives of Human Pathology Followed

Enrico Ferri in the August Atlantic:
OF Ibsen's works, says Enrico Ferff in
the August Atlantic Ghosts is the
drama which, above ali others. most in
tensely follows the lines of human pa
thology as revealed by modern science,
although the crime il involves is only
family indicated, and we are left IN
certain at the end whether the mother
gives TO her son the liberating poison
cnaved by the victim of paternal vice.

showing how this view is making head
way among higher thinkers. Ibsen's
work is inspired by a rare knowledge
OF scientific facts reproduced with a
more or less philosophical precision.
Thus Hedda Gabler heWs out as from a
rude block the figure of a neurotic
woman, hysterical and criminal In
The Wild Duck we encounter the tri-
umphant criminal and Swindler a con-
temporary figure OF haute finance now
too often met with. In The Pillars of
Society Ibsen depicts the so-called
great men of politics, at once criminals
and neurotics, who display in a diff
ferent environment-the environment of
parliamentary life-the same tenden-
cies that influence the brigands of the

the fundamental facts of life. and then

common sense. Does the Times real
lie that six and a half millions of
American citizens voted for Mr., Bryan
last fall? Does it realize that it was
just such articles as the one quoted
that did SO much to influence the
minds of the people forty years ago
and to bring on the civil war? What
it, and all who are pursuing the same
policy in this matter that it is, should
realize is that the campaign of 1896
came more nearly dividing the people
seriously and on sectional lines than
any campaign since that of 1860, and
that such articles as this one on Mr..
Bryan is but Putting wedge into
an already too well defined line, of
cleavage. If families can be divided
and the natural love of members for
each other turned to hatred by the
continual derision and nagging of one
member by another, so can nations by
the continual derision and nagging of
one section by another. Any fool can
pull down; only wise men can build up.

A WIDOWS PENSION.

If a complete catalogue of the crimes
committed in this world could be kept,
undoubtedly pension frauds would oc-
cupy a large portion of it. The Wash
ington Post gives beautiful account
of how the pension racket" is worked
at times. 1t says that in the mail re-
ceived by Senator Fairbanks the other
day, came 2 letter from Frederick
Wolfe, living at Fort Wayne, Ind, who
wanted a widows pension. She had
been married to Jacob Stenebrenner, of
the Twenty-first regiment of the In
diana heavy artillery. He was mus
tered out Oct. 90, 1865, at Baton Rouge,
La, and she had never heard of him
since. Surprising him dead, she mar
ried A Wolfe in 1875. He died, and now
she seeks pension on account of her
soldier husband. Mrs. Wolfe's letter was
turned over to the historian of the
army of the Potomac. After a careful
investigation it was discovered that her
first husband was we'll and comfort
ably drawing a pension OF Sc month,
while enjoying the repose of the Ma
tional Military Home at Marion, Ind.
This information has just been COM
municated to Mrs. Wolfe, who has re-
Gently renewed her mourning for the
husband whom she supposed had
crossed over the river 80 years ago.
1t is really too bad that Mrs. Wolfe
could not get pension, especially after
she had gone to the trouble and eX-
pense of logging herself out in widows
weeds. in which she, no doubt, looked
perfectly lovely" Of course, after her
first keen grief over her supposed dead
Jacob had passed she comforted her
self with Wolfe, and for more than 20
long years rested her weary and ach-
ing head upon his manly BOSOM. And
when he passed away, when dust re-
turned to dust, she began to mourn for
Jacob and to pine for a pension. Her
disappointment in finding him alive and
missing a pension proves that the
course of true love did never yet run
smooth. And one of the last acts OF
Mr.. Cleveland before retiring from Of
fee was to veto private pension bill
in favor of a widow whose case was
exactly like this of Mrs Wolfe, only
that the soldier husband did not turn
out to be still living. And yet what a
howl went up because of that veto, !
though he did his plain and simple |
duty. How often and how often has
the gratitude of a nation been made the
means of perpetrating fraud upon
the nation.

DISPOSAL OF THE ASPHALT
BEDS.

The asphalt beds on the Uncompahgre
reservation and how they shall be dis
posed of worry a great many papers if
not a great many people. The latest
paper to worry over them is the Sioux
City Tribune. 1t tells how the senate
amendment to the Indian bill was a
job and how the house did a most
worthy thing in striking it out but
saws 1.-The chances are that if it wants
have to finally agree to the steal which
the senate has so long insisted upon"
Then the Tribune goes on in this wild
strain:
This reservation contains immense
beds of asphalt and gilsonite, and the
object OF the senate is to get it open
under the mining law, thus giving pri-
vate interests feast at the expense of
the United States. The propo-
sition of Secretary Smith was that the
asphalt and gilsonite be sold to the
highest bidder or leased. He was ig-
nored. A syndicate wanted those de-.
posts of asphalt and the senate clearly
showed itself a servant of the syndi-
cate. During the last session the house
weakly submitted to the outrageous
senate amendment rather than see the
Indian bill defeated, but the action of
the present house the other day gives
some hope that the mining capitalists
will be thwarted in their purpose to
hog the whole thing and let the gov
eminent find other quarters for the
Uncompahgres. But if the bill comes
back from the senate with the steal
again Incorporated in it, will the house
have the independence to throw it out
and risk failure to pass the measure
at all? If it weakens again, what will
President Mckinley do? His two

A RELIGIo-coMIC INCIDENT.

The New England Methodists held a
conference in Lowell, Mass, last week
at which there was one very interesting
occurrence.
DR.. George p. Mains, of New York.
had just finished an account of the
work and Importance of the Methodist
Book Concern in New York, when he
was asked the question: rs there any
truth in the report published in a Bos-
ton paper that the concern has dis
charged Methodist employees and
taken Catholics in their places?" The
doctor was apparently glad of the oD
portunity afforded him to answer the
question. He said he had recently dis
covered that the foreman of the COM
posing room was probably a Catholic.
saying he had called him brother for
many years without knowing what his
religion was. He then told of his eff
ficiency He also said he had learned
that the assistant foreman of his press
room was probably Catholic, and very
likely some of the young women, too.
Then he closed with strong common
dation of their competency and fdel-
ity, saying the concern did not ask
what persons religion was when
making arrangements for employment.
He also said all the concern asks is a
fair days pay for a fair days wage.
A fair days work for a fair days
wage is the only test to apply between
employer and employee, but it is too
often the last one applied, and especi-
ally where employers have strong re-
ligious prejudices. 1t is certainly to
the credit in every way of the Metho-
dist Book Concern that it has employed
Catholics for so many years. DR.. Mains
spoke like a man.
