It Will be seen by the above statement
that the Democratic council failed to pay
the $1,000 due on the above bonds in 1893
and 5000 In 1894. The records will show
that these bonds were presented for pay
men, and endorsed Not paid for want
Of funds" In 1895 the holders of these
bonds demanded their payment, and, as
the statement shows, the Republican
council paid $4,000 on them in 1895, be-
sides extra interest amounting to about
$3.50. caused by the failure of the for
mer council to pay them when due, ~
well as $4,000 due in 1896.
When the Republicans came into
power in January, 1895, they found over
$4,000 of bills which should have been
paid in 1894, charged UP in January. 1895,
after the statement for 1894 had been
made.
These facts refute the Registers dou-
bic loaded and totally false statement
made yesterday. The GntellIgencer chal-
lepges the Register to prove them false
by the records.

masked men entered the house Of
Farmer Daniel Harris, who lives alone
near Avenue City, seized and bound
him and robbed him Of about 500 in

to Harris, by way Of explanations: I'VE
know you have more money in the
house. II you don't give it up we will
burn you to death" Unable to get the
additional money the robbers removed
the farmers shoes and the heated irons
were applied to his feet. The work Of
torture, however, was soon interrupted
BY the arrival Of two of Harris neigh
bors, upon which the robbers fed.
Bloodhounds were placed on their

INDEPENDENCE, Kan, Feb. T.-Wil-

by two of his fingers being bitten off
by his six-year-old son. A few nights
ago Mason came home drunk. The
family had been in the habit Of tying
him when he came home in this condi-
ton to prevent his injuring any of the
family. In the scuffie that ensued
Mason got two Of his fingers into his
sons mouth, which SO provoked the
boy that he bit off the ends. In
short time blood poisoning set in and
physicians were called in, who ampu-
tated the fingers at the last joint.
This did not check the poison and
day or SO ago Mason's arm was taken
off at the elbow. But the poison had
evidently spread all through his sys-

tors say he can live only day or so
