There is a certain teacher in Washington
school who has won the very agreeable
profession and her pupils also for being so
real good and kind. Through the stormy
sessions Of county institutes, yearly exam
nations, inspection of the visiting COM

temper, patient and benign. Her face even,
reminds one of pictures one sees of st.
Cecilia. Mary Magdalene. and other saint
" pious women who have their heads
tilted upward with a dreamy far away
lock. She has won the regard of every
scholar who ever passed through her grade
and has not an enemy in the world. Even
this very laudable record has, however,
a few times brought embarrassing stu
atoms down upon her which the innocence
OF childhood can never understand. The
first one occurred one day last week when
little colored girl told her own teacher,
a rival of this first named girl. that
though she had never been a pupil of hers.
she wished she could be as she always
looked so good. There is a widening Of
the breach, but that was easy compared
with the latter uncomfortable episode. The
educator was calling at the home OF one
of her brightest scholars, a little girl Of
six years. The whole family were in the
room, and to the dismay OF the entire
group the little girl ran and climbed into
re; fathers lap and let go this confusion

The Wendells and Hamiltons Fail
Out About Stray Cattle.

H W Wendell, a Soldier township
farmer, came to this city this morning
and had a complaint sworn out charg-
ing VIII and Clarence Hamilton, also
of Soldier township, with distur bling the
peace Of his entire family, from the in
FAINT daughter to the eldest son, and
assauItfng two of his boys The Wen
dell boys are little fellows, ranging in
age from to Is years. while the Ham
iltons are young men over p years OF
age
The trouble was over a bunch OF cat
tie owned by the HamiltOns, straylng
on the Wendell premises and being put
up BY the latter family. The Hamilton
boys watched their opportunity OF Sc
curing the cattle without paying for
their trespassing as demanded by
Wendell, and thought 1t had arrived
when one day last week Mr.. and Mrs
Wendell left the children in possession
of the farm and came to Topeka They
then armed themselves with a couple
of rusty revOlvers to inspire fear and
went TO the Wendell farm and demand
ed the cattle The Wendell boys re-
fused to give them up and prepared to
defend themselvs with clubs and brick
bats, and this SO irritated the Hamil-
tons that they amused themselves for
half an hour tossing the older boys over
barn managers and through hay loft
hatchways. At the end Of that time
they took their cattle and went home

AN ODD CLASH.
Voters Must Register for Waterworks
Election Separately From
General Election

The trouble about the registration
books in connection with the water
works election has been adjusted. The
law provides that the registration
books must close ten days before any
special or general election The water
works election is set for November y,
the Saturday following the state cleo
ton 1t is necessary to close the regis
tratiOn books ten days before the gen
eraI election which will be about Is days
before the special water works election
This has occasioned no little trouble
because If the books are closed and
people are prevented from registering
during the five days preceding the ten
days limit before the special election 1t
might invalidate the election
