Va A~esAALSAe4J ~
In regard to the fight Saturday night
at k1auer's cigar store in which VIII
and Ed Barrett were beaten up by
Robert Todd and Claude and Albert
Wolff, President A. A. Curry, of the
Cigarmakers' union, writes the Journal
in regard to a member of the union
going oA9r. Barrett, Offering to paydoctor
bill if no criminal proceedings were
instituted:
I'm the interview with the elder Bar
rett he stated that a member of the
Cigarmakers' union called on him and
offered to pay doctor bills to prevent
prosecution.
The union regrets and condemns the
action of Mr.. Todd and desires the pub
lie to know it. The member of our un-
ion who called on Mr.. Barrett did so
merely as a friend of Mr.. Todd and not
as representative Of the Cigarmakers'
union.
Among the aims of our organization
is the Improvement of the members as
mechanics and citizens We are de-
pendent upon the good will of the pub
lie for our support and therefore strive
so to deport ourselves as to be worthy
of public respect

w. A. Reeder of Logan county has an
nounced that he is candidate for the
Republican nomination for congress in the
Sixth district. He was a candidate last
year, but was defeated by A. H. Ellis.
Senator Bentley of Wichita, who has
been so positive in his assertions that
Chester I. Long was to run for governor,
seems to have been making an effort to
get Long out of the way so he could run
for congress himself. Bentley has Off

But the Dude Grub Made His Wife Feel
Somewhat Stuck Up.
good story is told of Kansas farmer
who entered a general store in Enporia
and inquired for "somethin nice to put ON
griddlo calzcs.
"DIolassesf'' said the storekceper.
"Naw; somethin nicer. Ben eatin mo-
lasscs for 90 years. Amt you got somethin
slickerY"
The grocer told him about maple sirup
and praised it highly. All the "tony peo-
pie" Of Emporia used it, he said.
That's what l want. The high tonedest
you've got"
By a strange mishap when the boy went
20 pack the goods for the socially aInbi-
tious farmer he took a tin Of varnish, the
varnish coming in square cans of kind
similar to those containing the maple sap.
Three or four months afterward the man
came back to town and reported at the
store. The storekeeper, having made the
discovery of the error, was in panic. At
length he mustered up courage to ask how
the maple sirup had answered.
ooh, she was all right" said the Gus
toner. "Kinder highfalutin, but good.
My wife at first said she thought it was
some rancid, but when 1 told her what
you said about it bein a high toned dish
that the best people in Empory ies mach
orally craved she seemed to take a second
holt, and now she won't eat nothin else. l
thought there was a kind Of a snap an bite
to it that sorter reminded me o. what we
used to git when prohibition first struck
the country, but in gineral it's mighty
good stuff. "
"Was there any bad effect at allY' in
quired the amazed storekeeper.
"Well now, 1 can't say there wasn't.
You see, it was my wife's first experience
with dude grub, and she kinder lost her
head; got ambitious; allowed that if we
was good enough to have the kind Of eat
in we was good enough to have some other
things to match. Bought a lot o. new Chi

doors Of the Spanish prisons in Cuba closed
upon scores of American citizens and re-

McKinleys Inauguration Senator sherman,
his prospective Secretary Of State, announced
in the Senate in clear ringing terms that
American citizens must and should be pro-
tected, and their full rights demanded at any
cost and this was followed by an equally
explicit and vigorous expression By President
Mckinley in his inaugural. The result Of
these two expressions has been that the doors
of the prisons in Cuba have been flying open
to the imprisoned American citizens almost
daily since President McKiulcy's inaugurs-

scene was witnessed in the house Of
lords yesterday. The case of Flood

bourne, MacNaughten, Norris Shand,
Davey and James of Hereford, the
eight judges of the high court The
case is an important one to trades
unions, as it involves the question as
TO Just what constitutes intimidation"
i'm labor disputes. After the first hear
ing of final appeal TO the lords the
judicial members of that body were
equally divided. In consequence the
whole Of the judges or the high court
were summoned TO the rehoarinE Of
the case. Il was the FIRST time in II
years that the Judges have assisted at
a trial in the lords
The case was one brought by Flood
and Taylor who recovered damages
against Alien, an official OF the boiler
makers union, for bringing about their
dismissal from the Glengall iron works
The plaintiffs allege that the defendant
threatened to withdraw all union men
from these works unless the plaintiffs,
who We're ncn-union men, were dis
missed The Glengall company, hav-
ing important time contracts to fulfill
complied with the wishes of the union.
Flood and Taylor were dismissed. They
brought their action against Allen,

by the court of appeals. Then follow
