His stealing did not amount to a great

standing IN front OF business place on
tfifth street and when the owner came to
yet his horse il was not there. At first it
was thought that some one had taken it
for a Joke, but the horse and buggy, not
sho wing up, a search was made and it
was later found on the road between
Newtown and Osceola. Halseth NAV
have taken the rig for a Joke, but the
horse showed rough usage and the irate
owner of the outfit got out warrant
for his arrest.
Officer Beck says that the man was
seen about town a few days after the
event, bat suddenly disappeared and he
has since been unable to apprehend him.
HaIseth seems to have mania for horse
stealing az Mr.. Charles Klein, of Laur-
Jun, alleges that he stole his horse and
drove it so hard that il is now ruined

intoxicated when he took the horse.

The high price charged is accounted for
by the fact that the greater part OF the
Michigan crop was a failure and the
New York apples are not as good as
they generally are.

A HERD OF WILD CATTLE.
Cowboys Attacked and Their Horses
Killed in an Arizona Canyon.

Phoenix, Ariz. June ga party of cow
boys made a remarkable discovery in the
Superstition Mountains a few days ago.
While some 40 of them were hunting for
lost cattle they pushed their way through
an almost empenetrable thicket in a can
yon which it is thought was never before
visited by a human being. After riding
some distance through the thick brush
they came to a more open place, where
they discovered a herd of wild cattle,
thought to number about 100.
The cowboys attempted to drive a por-
ton of them out, but the wild animals
turned upon them, killing several of their
horses and escaping up into the canyon.
It is believed that these cattle are the
progeny of a few animals that years ago
wandered into the canyon from neighbour
ing ranges, and the most of them had
never before seen a man or a horse. A
large party is being organized to return
to the canyon and slaughter the animals.

re QUEsrIoN ca NE DAY.

According to Secretary John Sher-
mans view of the matter, trusts are far
and away the most important question
Of the day. This opinion is doubtless
entertained by H. o. Havemeyer, John
+. Searles John D. Rockefeller and
number of other prominent gentlemen
whose names might be mentioned were
it necessary to formulate a list
In making this declaration the sec
rotary, while he does not say so, is
clearly speaking for Himself alone. He
is not speaking for the administration,
because the presidents message to con-
gress on the occasion of converting that
body in extra session made no mention
of the great question. Evidently he is
not speaking for congress, because in
a three months session, during which
period the house at least has found
time a burden on it's hands, DO effort
has been made to curb the rapacity of
these foes of the people. He cannot be
voicing the sentiments of his party, be-
cause there is a notable absence of any
reference to these combinations for the
restraint Of competition in the ST. Louis
platform.
The United States senate has even
been accused of covertly favoring these
combinations for the control OF prices.
IheSe charges are OF course without
foundation or reason, but they have
been made, and a few people, infiu-
enced in their opinion by the fact that
the senate has taken no step to sup
press the trusts, may be sufficiently
unreasonable to believe them.
True. Secretary Sherman says that
the senate judiciary committee juggled
with the antitrust law which bears his
name in such a way as to render it of
little force and effect, but that was a
former senate-not the body of patrt-
otto statesmen now in Washington.
The secretary is convinced that re-
straint of trusts can be made effective
when we get the proper kind of law.
That being the case, he should at once
set about converting congress and the
president to his way of thinking. The
conversion of the people will probably
prove an easy task. Especially should
this be done now, since he asserts that
the currency question is not ripe for
settlement and the tariff matter being
nearly disposed of. there seems to be
nothing else to come before the house.
Mr.. Bryan's party made some refer
enee to the trust question at Chicago,
but they are not considered in connec-
ton with the shaping of the country's
destiny. Moreover that party's record
for four previous years was not such
as to commend it to those who might
be opposed to such combinations.

ANOTHER GREAT ASIATIC
PATTRnAn

(From the New York Tribune.)

(FrOm the New York Tribune)
Talk about British railroad to India
increases in both volume and earnestness.
The Russian railroads across Siberia and
China and through Central Asia to the
Chinese border greatly provoked it, and an
additional stimulus has been given to it
by the new enterprise which Russia is
pushing post-haste of a branch from her
Central Asian line through Persia south
to the Persian gulf. What effect present
complications in the eastern Mediterra-
mean viii have upon the scheme is not
apparent, but if. as many believe, the
British flag is still ultimately to be raised
over Crete that will be an additional rea-
son for carrying forward the great work.
Kurrachee is spoken of as the Indian
terminus of the road. It's Mediterranean
terminus is a matter of more doubt. The
coast of Palestine would afford the most
natural point. Two or three lines of
railroad already extend thither, to or to-
ward the gris-Euphrates valley; but
they are under French control, and there
is a common feeling that when the break
up of the Ottoman empire comes Pales-
tine and all Syria will be apportioned to
France.
At any rate there is little prospect of
Englands becoming mistress there. so
another terminus must be sought. It is
probably to be found at Alexandria in
Egypt which is now practically and
seems likely to remain permanently Brit
ish soil Thence the road would cross
northern Arabia, and pass along the
southern coasts of Persia and Beloochi-
stan to Kurrachee. All the way it would
be in territory which is either British or
under British influence, for the latter
may be said even of southern Persia, and
most of the way it would be so near the
sea as to be under the protection of the
British fleet.
The scheme is a gigantic one, and the
execution of it would be enormously ex-
pensfve It would be no more arduous an
undertaking, however, than the Canada
Pacific railroad, and not to be compared
with that across Siberia. Its advantages
would evidently be great. 1t would prob
ably soon be pecuniarily profitable as a
trade route while it's moral value as a
connecting link with India would be in
estimable. AS a strategic route in case of
war it would be above all price. With
British aggression seeking new worlds to
conquer and British capital seeking in
vestment, the project is one which the
most praetical-minded man may well
consider.

SKELETON WOREA WIG.
Curious Discovery of Workmen Who
Unearthed a Cemetery Near
Chicapo

Chicago, June 29.-Skeletons from an
old burial ground unearthed by men
excavating at Greenleaf boulevard and
Ridge avenue, were thought at first to
be evidences of a crime and were taken
to the police station by the eXcavators
for an investigation.
The section on Ridge avenue, now oc-
cupied by the finest residences of
Evanston, was the location of the first
burial ground in the vicinity, and was
abandoned forty years ago. The fact
was not known to the WOrkmen.
The bones were two feet below the
surface of the ground and were so well
preserved that portions of the skele-
tons were held together by the burial
clothing. One skull was carried to the
police station covered with a. poke bon
net, the ribbons of which We're tied be-
meath the bare jawbone. Beneath the
bonnet the scalp had dried and the
long brown hair. gathered back from
the forehead with a ribbon, was per
fectly preserved. When the bonnet
was taken from the skull the hair drop
ped off in the form of a wig.

LAST OF THE OLD SOLDIERS.
(From the St. Paul Dispatch.)


When the semi-centennial of Lees sur
render is celebrated on April 9. 1915. there
Will be not more than 10000 veterans of
the war living, and, unless the Grand
Army grows by the addition of veterans
not now members of it, its strength
twenty-three years from now will not be
more than 10000. In 1925, at the both
celebration of Independence day, this vast
country will see only 100, 900 of those who
fought to make it free.
Between the youngest and the Oldest
veterans is gap which two generations
could hardly fill. The honor of being the
boy drummer is disputed by at least two
claimants but the veneration due to age
is yielded to one man only of all the
millions that fought for the Union Born
before the constitution was adopted, John
Haynes was "A years old and a steamboat
engineer on the Mississippi when the war
began. That being the business he knew
best he entered the federal service as
engineer on a gunboat. He was a native
of the Cumberland mountain region of
Tennessee, and fought with Jackson at
New Orleans.
Capt. Haynes is an inmate of the Me-
mortal home at st. Louis, and is proud of
his years, his service for his country and
his physical powers. He chewed tobacco
for seventy years, and quit it five years
drank liquor in moderation for ninety
years, and never paid any attention to
his diet. At ITO years of age he has
thick head of white hair and a long white
beard. He married at the early age of
So and seems good for many years yet.
At the other extreme of life is Major
John Glen, an Ohio boy, whose birthday
was August 10, 1851 He figures in the
Army Register, because he is now quar-
termaster in the regulars, and that record
says he enlisted as musician in the Twen-
ty-second Michigan infantry May 1,
1863. But in reality he took part in the
battle of Shiloh in April 1862, with the
Third Ohio. He was not enlisted then
because of his age. Boy, even child that
he was, he performed deed at Chicka-
manga that won him promotion and COM
mendation He was blazing away with
his little rifle, which was a mans weapon
shortened for his use, when confederate
officer rode up to him yelling: ''Surren-
der, you damned little Yank!' Glenn
Glen promptly shot the officer from his
horse, but the rush of the Johnnies made
Glen prisoner. He managed to escape
and was made a sergeant at once. In 1871
President Grant. who found him at
Shiloh beating the long roll, appointed
him to the regular army.

GLOBE SIGHTS.

From the Atchison Globe.l
People are suspicious of a woman who
does not like children.
There are a lot of old love affairs in
AtchisOn that we are dead tired OF hear
ing about
Every woman thinks she looks mighty
well on her way to church
we have concluded that the real light
hearted people are those who can't
sing.
An Atchison man is such an ardent
lover that whenever he kisses his girl,
she freckles.
Some people are always indignant be-
cause they cannot get a ten cent cigar
for five cents.
A man who learns to play a slide
trombone well, won't have much time
left for foolish talk.
Occasionally a woman is accused of
putting on glasses because it is a fad,
when the real reason is age.
A man doesn't know real apprecia-
ton for his jokes until he tells them to
some one fat enough to shake.
Taking nine swallows of water, and
thinking of the one you love the best,
will not cure hiccoughs. unless that
one loves you in return, according to
girls supposed to be up in such things.
A recent Atchison bride wore a four
leafed clover in each shoe and carried
a rabbits foot in her pocket. She will
learn when she is older that patience,
and good nature, and thrift, would
have served better as charms against
