STRIKER ON THE WARPATH.
His school Book Decision or

Topeka. Kas.. Aug. s.-Special) po-
liticai disruption is threatened between At
torney General Boyle and State Superin-
tendent Stryler over the legal opinion rem
dered recently by the former to the eneCt
that all contracts now existing between the
various school district officers or boards OF
edI cation and the book trust were Nahu
and could not be set aside by the officers
in order that the books adopted by the
con mission could be used Stryker says
that if Boyle does not "call in that de-
Cis.on he will start little political hre
that will be burning so furiously that
Boyle will not be heard of at the PopuIlst
state convention next year. He threatens
to begin a correspondence at once with
that object i'm view. However. he will give
Boyle one more show before acting. Ihe
attorney general belongs to that faction
OF the Popuist state officials who believe
that big mistake was made by the Bopu-
lists in nominating Stryker In the hrst
place and that it would be wise the next
time to correct the mistake by turning the
superintendent down. Boyle is not mace
of that material to be bluffed by another
state official He proposes to stand by
that opinion and has served notice on
StIyker to proceed with his fight.

in Topeka in opposition to the state adj

it is not forgotten IT will be remembered
more vividly in the event an extra session

The fact that he was driven of the floor

The people are becoming prosperous. The
farmers find ready market Tor their sur

rate.
Judge Foote says he came down from To-
pekd yesterday with Governor Leedy, and
listened TO his tale of woe.
The governor asked me to come down
with him on the trip said he. The pros
perity wave has struck Kansas with such
force that Governor Leedy is worried in re-

LIVELY POPULIST FIGHT.
Democrats Demand Endorsement OF
Judge BurriS as Price of Fusion
in johnson County.

Olathe. Kas., Aug. S.-(SpeCialO The live
Hest scrap in the Populist circles that has
ever taken place in this city occurred last
night in the selection of delegates to the
judicial convention which meets here next
Saturday. The issue was on the indorse-
ment of Judge Burris, which the Democrats
demand as the price of fusion on county
ticket. The POpulsts in Miami county have
instructed for him and one delegate IN TINS
county would make his selection certain,
but i'm the fight last night the anti-Burrls
men claim solid the First and Second wards
of this city. while the First was carried
for him by a bare majority.
The county precincts will be a large ma
iOrity for him and it is pretty certain he
will get Populist indormesent, although the
tight will be carried to the convention.
The Republicans, four years ago, de-
clined to make a nomination and supported
BurriS, but this year they will nominate
w H. Sheldon. of Paola, who is so far
the only candidate. Judge Burris has been
Judge eight years.

Pearls In Arkansas.

New discoveries of valuable deposits
of pearls in lakes and rivers in Ar
kansas have added greatly to the ex.
element already existing over similar
discoveries and thousands of people
are wading through the water in differ,
ent parts of the State searching for the
precious gems. The latest and most
sensational discoveries were made in
the Arkansas river and the creeks,
lakes and bayous near Little Rock,
where pearls have been picked up
ranging in value from $40 to $500
each. Hundreds of people are work
ing the Saline, White and other rivers
and many valuable finds have been
reported. Additional discoveries were
made on the Fourche river yesterday
and hundreds of people are swarming
to that stream. A reporter OF The
Gazette, who spent much time inves.
tigating the matter, says there are 81
streams in the State that are rich in
pearls of large size. 1t has now devel-
oped that in the course OF a survey of
White river in 1895, IS, 900 worth OF
pearls were collected by members OF
the survey in the course OF their duties.
Pearls of from 80 to 50 grains in
weight are no uncommon things to
find in the possession OF country lads
Who fish for pearls for pastime. The
color OF the pearls found is that of q
saline rose and the texture is first class.
