not Because They Might Bite, but to ST.
lence Their Quacking.
a baggage man on the Santa Fe who
runs into Kansas City from out in the
western part of Kansas has lost lots of
sleep. 1t is doubtful if he can ever catch
up with it. He leaves Hutchinson at
night and reaches Kansas City in the
morning. Nearly every night he brings
in his Ger two or three coops of live do
mestic ducks. During the night, when
he has no baggage to deliver at small
stations, it has been his habit and privi.
lege to lie down on an inlprovised couch
and doze. With the advent of the ducks
the doing stopped. The almost constant
quacking of the ducks, who could not
understand their strange environment,
would not permit of sleep.
For many nights as he lay awake he
planned relief. He thought of strangling
the ducks or chloroforming them. But
neither expedient seemed good. One
night q bright idea came to him. After
he had put it into execution the ducks
were silent.
The next night lie had two coops of
unusually vociferous ducks. AS soon as
it cane time for sleep he wrenched
slat from one Of the coops, reached in
and pulled out duck. From his pocket
he took a small rubber band, which he
clipped over the ducks bill just back of
the nostriis. The duck tried to qnack,
but the rubber band. while it stretched
little, would not permit the duck to
open it's hill far enough to use it's
tongue. Only murmur came from it.
One by one the ducks were muzzled,
and the baggage man rested comforta-
bly,.
The commission men were surprised
Eext morning when they received lot
Of ducks with rubber bands around
their bills, and when the bands were re-
moved the shouts of protest from the
ducks were deafening.-Kansas City

"A United States Senator is to be-
elected by our Legislature and for
some reason all eyes turn first to look
for the man. The election of a Sena-
tor has been the rock upon which the
Republican party has broken in the
past. Experience has taught that the
choice of Senator must be a man who
can unite the party and honor the
State.
The Rev. Andrew Scott and his

and identified them as the men who
broke into his honse sometime ago and
escaped with lot of clothing, jewelry
and money, none of which was in their
possession when arrested.

The DELAWARE ELECTIoN.-An edi
torial in a Republican paper, written
before the Returning Boards had made
their discisions and when it wa!
thought the Republicans had carried
both branches of the Legislature, said
"There are other matters than the
election of Senator. Laws are to b,
repealed, amended, created. Tht
Conservatism" of Democracy, sc
called by our friends the enemy, hai
put Delaware away down in the list o
states in public improvements, in pri
vate enterprise, in educational faci
lities, in so many things. Our ancien
laws have retarded immigration, hav
kept capital away, have fostered olC
fogyism. To the Republican Part
comes the opportunity to inaugural
improvements, long-needed and judi
cious. 1t is a great responsibility
We firmly believe the men elected t
the General Assembly can be truste,
to perform these several duties.
