The mirage Of Tuesday morning
was one of the most wonderful seen
from this locality for years, says the
GoodIand Republic. Gu the west,
Ruleton, Kauorado and Burlington
could be plainly seen, and some
claimed they could see the outline of
Pixies peak in the far away distance.
AS this county is the highest point in
Kansas, being nearly 1000 feet above
Res level, and that the peak, 1856 miles
west, rises to an altitude of $4,000
feet, 1t is within the bounds of posi-
billty that the hazy outline visible in
the west was indeed Pixies peak. On
the north, the big divide, stretching
away to the breaks Of the Republican
river, lay like an open book The
most curious phenomena, however,
was Of a local nature, and two in.
stances will serve for the many SINH
lar ones. The Boyd place, northeast
Of town three miles, lies in the Sapps
bottoms, and Is not visible from town
under ordinary conditions; the Small
ley place east of town one and one.
half miles, sets in sh lndenture of the
prairie and also cannot be seen from
town under ordinary circumstances,
But Tuesday morning both places
could be plainly seen from Goodlsnd.
The scene was impressive, grand; it
was as though some mystic genil had
obliterated distance, or gave power to
mortal eyes to pierce the hills and
zee beyond them, and to follow the
floor of the PLAIN with the eye and
meet no horizon. This strange man.
Hesitation is peculiar even in this
magic spot of nature, and Is inexplic-
able. It is one of the many unsolved
mysteries of the great plaips.

Some Kansas Facts.

Kansas will be thirty-six years old
January 49, After a contest which
lasted for several years between the
element which tried to add Kansas to
the roll of the fifteen slave states then
in the Union, and the men who we're
determined to preserve this region to
freedom, the latter triumphed. The
chief obstacle to the admission Of
Kansas as free state was the senate,
in which the democrats had large
majority. After the withdrawal of
southern members to follow their
states in secession in the opening
days Of 1861, however, the republi-
cans gained control of the senate
pushed the Kansas bill through that
body, and President Buchanan sign
ed it on January 20 Of that year. At
ole time and another Kansas has
filed large place in the country's
history, The act which created the
territory of Kansas in 1854 brought
with it mightier consequences than
those which depended ON any other
law ever placed on the national
statute book in the slxty-fve years Of
the government up to that time. It
made the salary question the only
issue in politics, broke the partisan
utilization betweeA the agricultural
south and the agricultural west;
started a civil war in Kansas which
was a prelude to the mighty struggle
q few years later; killed the whig
party by sending its southern snd
through the halfway houses of the
know-nothing party in 1856, and the
constitutional union party in 1860
into the democratic camp, and put
the bulk OF its northern end into
combination with the free soilers,
political abolitionists and anti-slavery
democrats under the name OF the re-
publican party to fight slavery ex-
tension, while il split the democracy
in 1860, thus giving the republicans
tho victory which sent the south out
OF the Union, preCipitated the war,
overthrow slavery, put solid south
and a solid north in politics, and
KEPT them in, except with occasional
breaks in the north and during the
reconstruction interrpgnum IN the
south, along to 1896. Globe Demo.
