kansas Was Poet Turned Gown

Topeka, Kan May 5.-Today Will
O Hobart,a patriotic little boy, hand
ed to Miss Kirk, a teacher in one Of the
public schools, the lines written by
K~ansas's wal poet, Eugene F. Ware,
on receipt of the news of the American
victory of Manila Bay. Young Hobart
wanted to recite them before the school
tomorrow. They are as follows:
O dewey was the morning
Upon the first of May
And Dewey was the Admiral
Down in Manila Bay.
And dewey were the Regents eyes,
Them orbs of Royal blue;
And dewey feel discouraged
| dew not think we dew.
When Miss Kirk read the verses she
scornfully rebuked the pupil and said:
"Do you suppose | would allow you
to recite that thing?"
There is talk of calling the attention
of the Topeka school board to Miss
Kirk.
Miss Kirk was right we think.

Blown Up.

The steamer Agnes Parkes that phys
between Mermentau and Lake Arthur
is reported to have been blown to pieces
and sunk at the wharf at Lake Arthur
about 7 o'clock p. NJ, on Tuesday.
The particulars as near as we could
obtain them were that the Agnes
Parkes left Mermentau after the ar
rival of the train with five or six pas
sengers and some freight, a part OF
which was several kegs OF powder, and
lust as the vessel was landing at Lake
Arthur one of the kegs of powder was
ignited and caused such an explosion
as to wreck and sink the boat a few
minutes afterHard. The passengers
and pilot were all blown into the lake
with more or less burns and bruises,
but most miraculously none were fatally
or even seriously hurt. Being near to
shore probably prevented some from
being drowned as there were four OF
Eve ladies among the .passengers.-

The protraeted dry weather has
operated seriously against farm work.
1t has been almost impossible to pull
verize the soil, and many farmers have
plowed their lands over again in order
to harrow the clods better. Many have
continued planting under these unfaV-
orable conditions, but the soil is SO dry
that the planted seed cannot terminate
until a good shower of rain falls. If
rain does not fall very soon the plant
ing season will be seriously retarded
