Anna E. Diggs was recently in
Ivited to address the Kansas legisla-
lure, and, woman-like, boldly spoke
her mind. She lsshed the populists
Numerically, and it is safe to pre-
dict that it will be a long time before
another woman orator will get a
chance At that body. What . pity
he could not have got at the South
Dakota Legislature about March 5th.
Here isa portion of her remarks:
''You had everything in your own
hands," she cried. 1.-THE executive,
the judicial and the Legislative
branches, and could have rendered
the people a vast amount of good.
But what have you doneY The un-
employed travelling from one end OF
the state to another will be a direct
impeachment of the lost opportunity
OF the reform party. The people
had a right to expect relief at your
hands. 1t was your duty to act in
accordanoe with the pledges on which
you were elected. You have been
weighed in the balance and found
wanting. God have pity on your
souls"

The Plowman-M Moore row in the
Black Hills is an echo of the recent
senatorial scramble, and illustrates
the peace and harmony prevailing in
the populist camp at present. Moore
is the chairman of the populist cent
rial committee of Lawrence county.
and during the senatorial fight bitter
|ly opposed Judge Plowman. As
the attorney for some prisoners to be
tried before Piowman he induced
them to make afRdayits for a change
of venue, alleging prejudice on part
of the Judge. Plowman called the
attention OF the jury to the facts in
the case, declaring that three of the
prisoners We're absolutely unknown
to him, and ordered them to lnyesti-
gate and determine if the prisoners
made the sfidayits of their own
volition, or whether their attorney
Moore, was guilty of subordination
OF perjury. The judge is warm
under the collar at the reflection on
his integrity, and Moore may now
hare as Interesting a time in keeping
out OF Jail as he had in keeping
Piowman out of the u. S. senate.

THREE FAIRY GIFTS"
Little Ones to Play for Charity at the
Tivoli Opera House.

Little Ones to Play for Charity at the
Tivoli Opera House.
For the past five weeks the Tivoli Opera
house has been the scene of merry dances,
songs and revels, as one hundred little ones
have been rehearsing in pretty little play
entitled THE Three Fairy Gifts, which
they will produce on Sunday afternoon,
March IA, at the Tivoli. The proceeds of
the entertainment will be donated to the
Bush-street Free Sab ath-school, most
deserving institution. For the past few
years the school has been unable TO stand
the extra expenses that have presented
themselves, and the little children con-
ceived the idea of relieving their present
EN- Embarrassment.
Miss Hattie Nathan, the dramatic reader.
has been coaching the little ones ana is
personally conducting the entire perform
ance. The Centennial Minstrels will give
a minstrel first part" and as tine young
men are all we'll known their presence will
add greatly to the performance.
Among the otner features will be spe-
cialties by the little Schlessinger children,
Rosie d EMERY and host OF others. The
management has spared no expense to
make the affair successful, and the tickets
can be reserved, without extra charge, on
the day of the performance.

The SCHOOL TAAGLE,
There Will Be a Suit Over the
Secretaryship of the
School Board.
Reginald II W. bster Yestsriay AS.
sumed the Office of Su-
perints nielt

Reginald H. Webster yesterday took
formal possession of the office OF Superin-
tendent of Schools. Madison Babcock
left tn Office about o'clock and Mr.. Web
ster came in little later, accompanied by
c. B. Stone, who was at once installed as
deputy superintendent, succeeding Miss
English. Mr.. Webster filed his bond and
oath of office last December after he had
received his certificate of election, conse-
quently there was no formality yesterday.
Mr.. Webster's advent caused a fuster
very naturally. He announced that, so
far as he was concerned, no move would
be made at the next meeting of the board,
which will be held tonight, toward effect
ing any change in the position of secre-
tary. What would be done later he did
not care to predict, but said that his own
legal position had been uncertain and that
therefore he had not been able to bestow
his full attention upon other considera-
tions. The present secretary, Charles w.
Welch, is reasonably sure to remain until
the end of this month at least.
Mr.. Beanston, the former secretary of
the board, who claims that he has been
entitled to the office ever since be was
dispossessed of it by force, said last night
that he did not know what he would do
His case was in the hands of his attorney.
He had always held, he said that Mr..
Babcock exceeded his legal power in ex-
pelling nim, he being a statutory officer.
At the same time Mr.. Beanston said tha
he was fully aware of the fact that Mr..
Babcock had been de facto Superintendent
and that this must be considered. The
question involved in the secretaryship
was different from that relating to the po-
sirion of Superintendent
While the defeat of Webster in the
court, had it taken place, would have
meant Mr.. Beanston's defeat, he said that
Webster's success had left him a chance.
The matter would probably be- settled by
O suit in his case.

UNA'S TROUBLES OVER.
The Treasury Department Orders the
Final Release of the Fugitive
Schooner.

Collector Wise has received orders from
the Treasury Department at Washington
to release the schooner Una from the pre-
dicament she has been in for several
weeks past, on the payment of fine of
$40
The Una was about to be tied up at Pan
ANA by the Govern nment of Colon bia on
trumped up charges preferred by the
owners Of the cargo, when Captain Har-
kins, believing that he was getting into q
bad position, suddenly holsted his sails
and ran ou, of the harbor with gunboat
in chase. He sailed without his clearance
papers or bill of health, and on his arrival
here was at first refused entrance at the
Custom-house.
A telegraphic correspondence with the
Treasury Department settled up the mat
ter of the clearance papers. but the ab-
sence of clear bill of health was not so
satisfactory and further communications
we're necessary. The fine for sailing with
out clean bill is $4,000. but the depart
ment, apparently satisfied that Captain
Harkins was not altogether to blame for
it, imposed the nominal fine of $40.

every man or woman arrested on a charge of
counterfeiting United States money is sent to

Service. A man who gave the name of James
oKeefe was arrested in New York on April 6
Cor passing counterfeit dimes, and committed to
Ludlow Street Jail. Yesterday his photograph
was received by Chief Hazen, and to-day the
Chief Thought he recognized something familiar
about the mans features. A search through
the Rogues' Gallery OF the secret service resulted
in convincing Chief Hazen that O'Keefe was q
notorious countcrfeiter who escaped from the
Jail at Joliet, ILL.,, on March 90 last with two
other showers of the queer. He had been ar
rested in Chicago for counterfeiting. and
was committed to Joliet under the name
Of James, Nolan. By means of a saw
and rope. he and the other two escaped from
the JAIL, through the connivance. 1t is alleged, of
one Williams, now under arrest charged with as
sisting them. Nolan or O'kccie managed to get
toNew York, where he applied to a hospital for
treatment. he had a deep cut on the wrist, but
service people heard of this after he had left the
hospital, and have been on the lookout for him
ever since. They did not know until to-day that
their man was safe behind the bars in Ludlow
street. Chief Hazen. will try to have Nolan ex-
tradited from New York TO Illinois 80 that he
can be tried for counterfeiting and also for Jail
