SIMPLY VILE
In the 10 Days That the
Volunteers
Have Been at Camp Leedy There
We're Only Two
That the Camp Has Been Dry
and No Rain.
The Most Aggravating Spell of
Weather Ever Known.

The last As hours have been among
the most disagreeable that the volun-
teers have spent in Camp Leedy.
Some of the companies occupy the
buildings in the fair grounds. In the
exposition building, the university COM
pany is Quartered in the third story, the
company from LeavenwOrth in the sec
ond story and the Emporia and other
companies on the first floor. The rain
has soaked the building and the bedding
is damp and the roof leaks. The odor
is very disagreeable. The Leavenworth
company complains that the university,
in the top of the building, get a shower
bath, and that the boys from Apple
town have to take it second handed
All in the building were glad to know
that it was to be but short time till
the regiments would be moved, as they
would probably never find such a wet
climate again. The men quartered in
the tents really Jared much better than
those in the buildings, as they have bet
ter ventilation, and stoves to keep their
bedding dry. Some of the companies
have been in camp 10 days, and during
that time there has been only two days
when the camp was dry and it did not
rain.
The men have been poorly equipped
In the way of blankets and ponchos
there has been a plenty, but one of the
things most needed has been shoes, and
as yet not a shoe has been issued.

TWO WEEKS OF Talk.
Outlook for the War Revenue Bill in
the Senate.

Washington. May 16.-The war revenue
bill will occupy the attention of the SEN
ate this week. almost to the exclusion of
other business. and there is a probability
that the bill can be disposed of during the
week The indications now are for
two weeks debate. and there is no assur-
ance that it will be concluded within that
period of time. The opponents of the bill
disaVoW any intention of unnecessarily
delaying the perfection of this legislation;
but they do not conceal their intention of
taking time to present their views the
various questions involved, and it looks a.
If ii would be impossible for them to do
this wit hin less time than two weeks. The
principal portion of the debate will be on
the committee in favor of restoring the
bond provision. The probabilities are
that this proposition will prevail if the
war continues, but before a vote can be
reached upon it there will be a great deal
OF talk for and against it.
The entire financial question will be in
NolVed to an extent and probably most of
the senators who oppose the bond issue
will be heard before the conclusion of
the discussion. but the Democrats and silver
Republicans says il will be necessary for
them to explain and defend their position.
Senator Allison opened the debate TODAY
lean members of the committee on fin
ance and he will be followed by some
Democratic member of the committee
probably Senator Jones Beyond this
there is no date upon which to base a
statement of the probabilities. It is quite
certain, however. that there will he no
dearth of Speechmaking.

PAT O'DOUGHERTY DEAD.
Suicide of Genial Old Printer Whom
Everybody Liked Despite His
Vices

Patrick O'Dougherty, who has been a
familiar figure on Topeka streets for
several months, and who years ago
worked on Topeka newspapers, COM
n1tted suicide Saturday night by TAX
ing 20 grains of morphine. He entered
Mayors barber shop on Kansas avenue,
between Fifth and Sixth streets about
1880 O'Clock. He went back to the wash
stand and emptied the small package
OF morphine into his mouth and took
drink of water. Then he turned about
and said to someone who was near:
wei, I'm going to die. I have taken
the poison
Efforts were made soon to remove the
poison from his stomach and he re-
manned conscious. But after a few
minutes the morphine began it's deadly
work and he went into a stupor. He
was removed to the police station
where City Physician Mitchell worked
with him until a late hour. O'Dough-
erty died at 2:15 o'clock Sunday morn
ing. Coroner Westerfeld was called
and he made an examination of the
body. He decided that it was such a
plain case of suicide that no inquest
was necessary.
AO'Dougherty has been around Topeka
for many months, drinking heavily try
ing to drown ris sorrows. He went
some time ago to the Printers home
at Colorado Springs, but did not like it
there and returned to Topeka He was
genial fellow and had a large ac-
Quaintance in the city, and all who
knew poor old Pat can not but feel
genuine grief that his end was so I'M
happy.

Spain Must Declare Herself if She
Wants Any Help.

New York, May 16.-A Berlin dispatch
to the World says: An evidently inspired
editorial in the Post treating of the ques-

That is the European Name for Run

London, May 16.-It is considered in
London that the Washington board OF
strategy has a difficult problem to solve
on account of the mysterious move
ments of Admiral Cervera's squadron,

garded with the utmost suspicion.
1t is recognized that SPANS strategy
will do her no good in the end, but also
that the war will be more prolonged
than was first expected and that the
invasion of Cuba may prove a difficult
matter.
