Buried In the Well Where He Died.

Speaking Of strange and sad occur
rences, none could be more remarkable
than the death and burial of Charles
Carter, a we'll known farmer residing
near Russell. He was cleaning out an
old we'll when the quicksand suddenly
cayed in on him, leaving only his head
and chest exposed. When the alarm
was given, hundreds of people assem-
bled and went heroically to work to
save their neighbor. 1t was found that
nothing could be done toward removing
the sand about Carter's body, SO par
allel we'll was dug and tunnel run
from it into the old we'll, but even then
the body could not be removed so close
ly was it grasped by the sands. 1t was
found that a rope attached below Car
ter's arms would pull the body into
parts without withdrawing it's covered
portion, and that method had to be
abandoned. Carter was conscious and
talked with his resouers, but at the end
Of 5S hours he died. By this time an
enormous crowd had gathered, and all
sorts of plans were suggested for recov-
ering the body, but finally it was de-
termined to make the we'll the dead
mans tomb, and it vast filled up after
religious services had been held upon
its brink. The we'll was 48 feet deep,
and perhaps no other Kansan ever found
quite SO strange a burial place.-Kan-
sas City Journal.

Dangerous Thief.

A French actress, travelling about the
country, had for use in one of her plays
q lay figure, skillfully put together and
dressed in travelling suit. So says the
New York Herald, which proceeds to
tell comical story about it:
At Marseilles it was left in the lug
gage room with other things. The curl
osity of two of the railway employees
being aroused at tho sight of it, they
took off the coverings and resolved to
play q joke on their comrades. They
placed the figure in an armchair at the
desk of the cashier and shut the door.
When the employees on night service
came, they opened the door and were
surprised to see imam sitting before the
cash box. They Immediately closed and
locked the door and ran for assistance.
A policeman arrived, revolver in
hand, believing, like the employees,
that he had to deal with dangerous
thief. He called on the figure to sur
render and follow him to the station.
AS it did not obey the summons, the po-
liceman shut the door and went in
search Of re-enforcements to surround
the place and thereby prevent tho Gull
prit from escaping.
The door was again opened, the arm
ed force entered, and it was not till they
had suddenly pounced on the poor lay
robber that they discovered the joke.

The only convention speech in the
past six years which has really influen-

Senator James Harlan. The afternoon
session is brief but exciting. There is
much confusion.

themselves homeward to consult the
ballot sheets to find out who went back
on them. There is a rush for the trans
and the delegates depart trying to figure
out how it all happened. This is some-
thing of the mechanism of a conven-
ton. Back of it all are better things.
The men may struggle for office, for in
fluence, for position in succeeding
years, but back of it all there is the
strong sentiment of republicanism. a
faith in sound governmental principles
and one can but feel that it is good tc
be there, and good to be even an in
tinitesimal molecule in the party whose
ability to govern wisely and we'll has
been proven by third of century OF
history.

Mr.. PARklN.s CANDIDACY

Crawford county gave its firm sup
port to MI. Parkln i'll the contest for
railroad commissioner not only on ac-
count OF district ties but because it was
felt that his nomination was a wise
one. The democratic papers will un-
douhtedly raise the howl at once that
the republicans failed to nominate a
NOTTINGHAM. If Mr. Parlin had won
the sa'ue papers would have gone fran
tic because railway employe had been
nominated and they would have de-
nounced him as tool of the corpora
lions.
| MIR. Parkin, himself, blames no one
for his defeat except those of his rail-
road brotherhood friends who failed to
come to his aid as had been ex-
pected. But three Brotherhood men
we're on the field. Had there been
twenty more, had Mir. Parkin engaged
his headquarters earlier. it is our be-
lief that he would have been nominated.
1 AS it is we have Mr.. Parkin's assur-
ance THAT nothing occurred at the con-
vemtion which would lessen his faith in
lepublicanism or cause him to think
that it WAS inimicahe to the working
man or his interests. In spite of the
much more aggressive campaign waged
; by his opponents Mr.. Parkin received
at one time 1888 votes or more than one.

THE TENTH DISTRICT AT TIE
STATE CONVENTION.

The Tenth District did not succeed
in nominating either of its candidates
as the late convention. 1t presented
two good men in the persons of Capt.
Hartshorn and w. b. Parkin, but it
seems that they were not to be the
choice of the convention. Capt. Harris
horn made very creditable showing
and he had practically the solid support
of his district. The support given Mr..
Parkin was not SO firm as it should
have been and we believe that some
counties made a serious mistake in not
giving him their solid vote.
The failure OF Webster county to do
this is almost inexcusable. Every two
years Webster presents it's candidate
for congress and all the counties in the
district rally to his support. Under
these circumstances it is only right that
when some other county presents a
candidate Webster county should glad.
ly support him. We do not blame Mr.
Dolliver for the action of his county
but we must Say that it was not good
politics.
Kossu,h county behaved splendidly
and we are inclined to extend the glad
hand to them. Harvey lngham made
one of the strongest members of the
resolutions committee. In short the
Tenth District supported its home men
and went down with them, but in de-
feat the district learned the lesson OF
harmony and district obligation.
The tenth is big district, it has
many strong men and many conflicting
ambitions, but we trust that new era
of good FEELING is coming. that we shall
know each other better and realize that
only in uaon IS there strength.
