The black leopard is admitted to be
h most savage and intractable of all
quadrupeds. The horrible black Loop
ard Death, in Eugene Sues "Wander-
ing jew" who was followed about by
a loathsome E~nglishman, anxious to see
him eat his tanner, is declared not to be
a scrap overdrawn. He hates the whole
world and wants to fight it. to gnaw it,
to e it to rags and splinters; and
he is staring, dancing mad because he
can't get at the world to do it. He lies
there, black and deadly, his yellow eyes
ablaze, ready to pounce on you-if only
those bars suddenly melt awayl But
they don't melt and you come no nearer.
Then he filings himself at the bars with
a yell and flies up and down and over
and over about his cage like nothing
but q black leopard with about 1900
seidlitz powders, swallowed separately
and suddenly efrervescing all together.

WHERE ARE THE GUNS3
They Were Distributed All Over This
Part of the State Some Years Ago.

From the Kansas City Star.
When Jesse James was the terror of
the country surrounding Kansas City
and men were hunting him and running
whenever they thought they had found
him, the state of Missouri furnished the
police department of Kansas City sixty
eight rifles and thlrty-four revolvers.
The weapons were distributed among
people who were hunting outlaws and
are now scattered over Jackson, Clay,
Platte, Lafayette and Il few other Il
ties in this vicinity.
No efforts were ever made to
collect the weapons and the fact that
they were issued was almost forgotten
until last week, when Nj. F. Bell, adju-
tant general, wrote to the property
clerk, F. F. Snow, for an accounting of
the weapons.
Snow is equal to most emergencies,
bat not to this one. He submitted the
letter to the commissioners yesterday
and the board was puzzled. The mat
ter was finally laid owe and Snow was
told to find out what he would do about

AN IL CONFEDERATE.
An old Confederate Passed Through
W~arrensburg on His Way to Hig-
ginSville.

From the wcrrenstu rg JournalDemocrat.
c. D.. Wallace, an old confederate
soldier passed through the city today
on his way to Higginsvllle where he
hopes to be admitted to the C~onfeder-
ate home. A Journal-Democrat repor-
ter saw the old man this afternoon.
His story is one of woe and hardship,
one piece of bad luck and misfortune
following close upon the heels of an
other. The old soldier is ragged and
one who passed him by would call HIM
a ssbum.' But the old mans mind is
still bright and stored with all the wis
dom of years and misfortune. Though
he is old and crippled, he will not beg
nor steal Il ride on a box car so he hob
bles along on his painful way, mother
victim of the mad worlds mistreatment
and misfortune, his life's pilgrimage
almost completed, his only hope now
beng to gain admission To the home of
the boys who wore the gray, there 10
spend his declining days in peace if not
in contentment.
The old man makes a sad picture and
even a newspaper man is inclined to
pity when such sights are seen. To
give the old mans story would require
columns. He fought in the war, was
captured by the union soldiers, impris-
oned, released, went to Galveston lost
his all in a fire, went to Clorado made
non on some mines, invested heavily
in a mining camp only to have the
mines fail and the town become depop
ulated. Then beginning again, to meet
with new success and new reserves, till
finally smitten with rheumatism he was
obliged to leave Colorado and began
his j~ourneyings toward the east, getting
worse instead of better, and running
out of money was obliged to walk. In
the Indian Territory he was robbed OF
his clothes and left by the roadside for
dead, was picked up by some soldiers
from Fort Reno and kindly succored,
finally made his way to Kansas City.
From there he expected to go to his
sons home in Mississippi but learned
hat they had lost everything in the
flood and so worn out, slck, crippled
and hardly able to stand he began his
long tramp from Kansas City to Sedalia
where he expects to get the papers
to admit him to the soldiers
home at Higginsville.

White, of Kentucky, while speaker of
the house in the Twenty-seventh con-

that, when he had to deliver his vale
dictory, he got one of those men who

Good One ON the oycIist.

A young American who was bicycling
in southern France was pushing his
wheel up a steep Mill, when he overlook
a peasant with n donkey cart who was
rapidly becoming stalled, though the
little donkey was doing his best. The
benevolent wheelman, putting his left
hand against the back of the cart and
guiding his wheel with the other,
pushed so hard that the donkey, taking
fresh courage, pulled his load up to

These excursions are p~atrOnized by
