1900 DOGS in THE SHOW.
Big, Small, Handsome and Ugly Will
Be Shown in New York.

New York, Feb. 24.-An of the LOO
dogs in the twenty-second annual bench
show of the Westminster Kennel club,
which opened yesterday in Madison
Square Garden, are in their places
and ready for inspection
There has been a change in the meth
cd of punching this year, and all of the
dogs. with the exception of the toy
spaniels, will be found on the main
floor.
The eight rings are in couples length
wise of the Garden, and when the judg-
ing is over they will be thrown into one
for exhibition purposes, which will give
to the spectators a better chance to see
from the seats than formerly. The
rings will be occupied at 8 p. m. on the
first day by Colonel Magnus Shults's
performing Great Danes and clown bull
dogs.
There will be no music; that was tried
once in a Philadelphia show and it
nearly set the dogs crazy.
The show will be open continuously
each day from 8 until IL.
The largest dog in the show this year
is David Blanck, a rough coated ST.
Bernard, thirty-eight inches high
weighing 225 pounds; the heaviest dog
IS Lord Brassey weighing 243 pounds;
the smallest and the lightest dog is the
Toy Griffon Fiji, Weighing two pounds
and half He is full grown, is owned
by George Kurth, and it would take
just about a hundred of him to weigh
as much as Lord Brassey The ug-
gliest dog, beyond question is King
Orry, who is a perfect beauty, in bull
dog parlance

A FARMERS SYNDICATE.
Ex-senator PETER Revives a Pet
Scheme of His

Scheme of His.
Ex-United States Senator w. A. PEI
fer is again advocating the formation
of a farmers syndicate for the purpose
of systematizing the work of men who
till the soil, and for the reduction of
farm expenses, so that farmers will be
enabled to hold their own against the
rest of the business world.
After telling about springing this
same question ten years ago, while ed
itor of the Kansas Farmer, Senator
PETER says:
1T is good time now to revive the
suggestion, for we are all thinking
along new lines. The subject was re-
called on reading of the formation of a
cooperative association of railway men
in Texas for the purpose of carrying on
farming operations on a large scale
About 300 railroad men at work on
roads in Mexico have organized a colo
ny with a capital of $780, 600 to be in
vested in land across the line in the
Lone Star state.
THE colony will proceed under rules
and regulations agreed upon among the
associates, and the business will be
conducted through officers and other
agents, like any other well managed
business.
why cannot a hundred Kansas far
mers organize themselves into an asSO-
citation, each member retaining owner
ship of his own land and receiving his
proportionate share of profits, the lands
of all the members being subject to
management of officers appointed for
that purpose?
Some such method of organization
and work would economic labor, dis
pense with vast amounts of costly i'm
elements and machinery and wholly do
away with middle men. All the lands of
the members would be titled according
to one general plan, and the crops
would be harvested and disposed of me-
thodicaIIy A place for storage and
warehousing fruits, vegetables and
grain would render easy and profitable
the holding of crops for suitable mar
kets. and farming could be thus again
raised to a level of profit"

Lebanon, Ind, Feb. 24-The state
ment made by General Lew Wallace at
the Lincoln Day banquet, held in Lee
banon February u, that Lincoln had on
one occasion told him confdentially,

that he Gincoln) was Waiting for a
boat to take him to Harrison's Landing
to prevent Mcclellan from surrendering

varied comment among McClellan's ad-

by George B. Mcclellan, a son of the
late General Mcclellan, a member of
the house of representative from the
Twelfth district of New York On ac-
count of the prominence of General
Wallace the letter is particularly inter-
listing. The letter is as follows:

attempted to commit an outrageous
crime He refused to be taken from
his cell, broke up his bed and threw
the coal oil lamp at Superintendent
Case. He acted ike a maniac, and the
officers had to take some means of
frightening him into subsection. The
redhot irons were thought of after eve
rything else had been tried and were
simply used as a means of subduing
the man. He was run into a corner of
his cell with the irons, but no attempt
was made to place them against his
body. The minute he found himself
cOrnered he threw up his hands and
surrendered, and was handcuffed. The
statement that the man was inhUmanly
burned is a lie, for we examined his
body at the reformatory last night, and
with the exception of his hands where
he caught the irons there is not the
trace of a burn. The board condemns
such action on the part of the officers,
but in this case we believe their con-
duct to have been justifiable.'

oTHER SIDE o. ZEE sToRY.
Board of Managers on the Alleged
Burning at Hutchinson.

Mr. w. J. Lingenfelter. chairman of
the board of managers of the Hutchin-
son reformatory, denies the story that
Wade Thomas, a negro prisoner at that
institution, was inhumanly burned with
redhot irons on the 14th of this month.
Mr.. Lingenfelter met with Messrs-
O'Neil and Miller, the two other mem
bers of the board, in this city today,
and the three called on Governor Leedy
to inform him of the particulars of the
case. They made an examination of
Thomas body at the reformatory last
night and state that with the exception
of the palms of his hands, where he
caught the redhot irons, there is not the
least sign of burn on his body
The members of the board are free to
say that they condemn such action on
the part of Superintendent Case and
his assistants, but state that the cir
cumstances were such that they regard
the action as pardonable. No removals
or suspensions of any of the officers of
the institution will follow. The redhot
irons, they state, were used simply as
means of frightening the negro into
subsection.

Thomas into the dungeon because he

enee to the mastering out of the Burlin-
game company of K. N. G., and Incl
dentally to make friendly call on the
governor. He consulted with Adju-
tant General Allen, but failed to call on
Governor Leedy. Before he had the
opportunity of seeing the governor he
was so thoroughly impressed with the
fact that the governor was angered at
his breach of discipline in offering the
service of the Kansas National Guard
to Gen Alger, that he decided call
would be out of place at this time.
The entire force in the adjutant gen
erals office Jumped onto General Nc
Crum. Adjutant General Allen told
him that if it happened to be in time of
war his official decapitation would have
been the Immediate result, and limited

considering such a move even in this
time of peace.

test was spirited, and several came only
a few points below him.
In the contest for the silver trophy
cup offered for the team shooting,
Wichita team No. 1, carried off the
prize. The trophy is highly valued be-
cause of it's worth and the severe con-

with two others formed during the
shoot.
