From Mail and Breeze.

From Mail and Breeze.
The prospective appointment of Micha.
ell w. Sutton, the eminent French barris-
ter of Dodge City, as revenue collector
of Kansas, calls to mind some interesting
incidents in his career. Mike began his
career, we believe, in Cowley county,
but as early as 1873 moved to Medicine
Lodge, which was just being located.
The emoluments of an attorney We're not
princely at that date and Mike had no
ancestral pull. His circumstances might
be fittingly described in the language of
the bully west as exceedingly rocky.
Through the kind hearted indulgence of
Judge Updegraff, who ran the hotel, he
was enabled to stand off his board bill
through extended periods of financial
depression, while pair of Overalls and
q somewhat abbreviated cotton shirt,
coarse shoes and government socks
constituted his most elaborate dress suit.
1t is related of him that on one occasion,
having little law business to transact
In Hutchinson, the nearest railroad town.
Mike felt the need of a more extensive
and fashionable wardrobe. He finally
went to J. L. Whitelaw, another attorney
who had come west to grow up with the
country, and remarked in a pleading
way ''Jim, you know l have this
nj unfn ~ 0kk To nd
these last years overalls of mine are
looking little seedy. l wish you would
loan me that new pair of yours until 1
get back. Up there in court, you know,
a man has to pay some attention to his
appearance. In those days Mike was his
own laundryman, and used to wash his
only shirt in Elm creek, and then lie in
the shade while the shirt dried in the
sun. One day the driver who brought
the United States mail in a blackboard
from Hutchinson saw a shirt hanging on
an elm bush at the crossing of Elm
creek. Concluding that somebody had
forgotten it there he picked it oil to take
up town, when Mike crawled out from
under low spreading elm tree and yell
ed at the driver: Hi, there, just leave
that shirt alone. 1t Las come to nice
pass in this country if man has to
watch his laundry with a shot gum
Along in 1876 Mike moved to Dodge
City and soon gathered up practice in
that wild and woolly town. He was
among the first in Dodge to insist that
there should be some little attention paid
to the laws of God and man, and in con-
sequence got out of favor with the gang,
who insisted that Dodge City aud hell
we're two places where God and the courts
had no jurisdiction. Mike has for years
been one of the ablest and best known
lawyers in the state, full of resources and
possessed of an extraordinary fund of
ready wit.

Suggestions as to the Present
Wheat CrOD.

VucaI CTOps
Judge \. j. Evans of Cimarron, a
gentleman Of much practical informa-
ton, gives the following suggestions
about the wheat crop:
1t is of the utmost importance that the
wheat crop be carefully saved. Good
milling wheat we'll saved will bring a
price above the shipping price, while low
grade or damaged wheat will have only a
shipping price, and that will necessa rily
be low, as corn, rye, oats and barley, all
feed grains, are very low, and wheat can
not bring much of price for feed.
The Cimarron mill will run as soon as
the present wheat crop is seasoned. No
wheat will be bought at the mill for
Touring purposes, except strictly sound,
dry wheat. Stack burnt and musty wheat
cannot make good flour, and the Cimarron
mill will be very jealous of its reputation
for flour. The condition of the grain and
manner of stacking are important factors
in saving wheat. Wheat stacked in green
straw and green weeds is sure to damage.
If wheat is stacked from the header it
must be ripe and dry. If there are weedy
spots in it, it will pay to let the cutting
fall on the ground to cure through the
weedy spots; then rake and stack. 1t is
better to be two days in stacking 500 or
1000 bushels of wheat and save it than one
day and lose fourth or third of it.
In stacking the middle should be kept
solid and high; and bulge will tend to
settle the outside of the stack more than
the center and will turn off the rain. II
the center Of stack is left soft and loose,
as it settles the stack forms . ooncave.
the straw lying downward to the center.
Having been wheat grower and q
miller. give these suggestions from ex-
perlence.

OF Mrs. Mabel Estelle Wallace, who
claims 20 be his widow. But two wit
nesses had been examined by the deputy
coroner and statements OF the two at

was announced that owing 90 the inablli-
ty OF the chemist 70 complete the analy-
sis of the stomach OF the deceased the
inquest would be adjourned for week,
This brought Mrs. Wallace 90 her feet In

sldered before this inquiry is postponed

can conclude his work In less time than
that, Think what must endure In that
time" continued Mrs. Wallace, her voice
breaking and her whole body trembling
with emotion. This investigation has
only begun. II must be thorough, and !
will have more. That 10 my right. Why
can't It be continued IN q day or two2"
Her pleading was not without effect
for II was finally decided to continue the
Inquiry Friday afternoon. by which time
the chemists analysts will have been
completed.
Mr.. Retcham will be buried In thu
family lot at Toledo. What promised TO
be difficulty between Mrs. Wallace and
the relatives OF the dead Clubman was
averted to-day by Mrs. Wallace, who
before the inquest was called, turned her
alleged husbands body over to his
brother. George II. Ketcham. who will
leave with It for Toledo this evening. A
funeral services was held at Mrs. Wal:
lace's residence on Indiana avenue this
morning, by Or. Burch, pastor OF the

Mr. Ketcham will be fled for probate,

this step will undoubtedly produce may
lead to one OF the hardest legal battles

stakes are not so high as they have been
in more notable cases.

WASHINGTON. D. c., Nov i6.-Unl-
ted States Consul Hugh Long, at No
gales, Mexico, has furnished the state
department particulars Of the supposed
murder of party Of Americans headed
by Captain Porter, by the serls Indians
on Tlburon Island. in the Gulf of Cali
fornla. According to the statement
made to the Mexican customs officers by
Martin Mendez. master of the sloop
"otila," Captain Porter sailed from
San Diego, CALIFORNIA. with his COM
panlons in a small boat, to engage In
collecting shells. They left the port Of
GuaVnmas, August o, under special per-
mission from the Mexican government
to explore the shores and Islands Of the
gulf
The consul says the island OF Thur
on Is one OF the largest and most pic
turesque in the Gulf of California and is
peopled by most remarkable tribe of
Indians, who are noted for their large
size and extraordinary athletics on land
and water. Those who have witnessed
their aquatic sports at respectful dis
tance declare that many OF them can
actually walk, or rather run upon the
water with no other assistance than
broad raw-hlde shoes.
They are. writes the consul. expert
fishermen and huntsmen, having rigid
ideas as to the maintenance Of game
preserves on their island and limiting
the killing Of game under severe penal
ties They destroy all children In In
fancy that are malformed or appear. to
be lacking In intelligence. In this way
the standard of physical and mental
conditions In both sexes Is kept very
high. II Ia currently believed that at
one time the native women were exter-
minated TO make room for a winter and
superior race Of women. The nucleus
Of this race OF higher women was form
ed from captlves made at various times
extending over series OF years on land
and water.
They have no schools. but each home
has a system OF physical training. The
natives guard their shores day and
night and no man is allowed to pene-
trate the island, even II he should make
a landing, II Is said that no epldemics
have ever prevailed on the island and
disease is scarcely known among this
extraordinary people, so that the men
and women are magnificent In their
physique endowment. No man or wo-
man is allowed to live beyond the age OF
seventy years, no matter how well pre-
served in body and mind BY careful Sc
