talk to the school, forcibly impressing
upon all the fact that excellence is reached
only by hard work, stating in substance,
what that great Lone Poet" Mendels-

question as to how he had ever achieved
all that he had achieved by saying, 81

Pope on pepartment stores.

New York, Jan. 17.-Col. Albert a
Pope paid a hurried visit to the city
yesterday. Asked for his opinion on
the bicycle industry, Col. Pope said:
Whatever I say, am jumped upon,
and some people seem to go out of their
way to criticise me. 1 was berated be-
cause I made an arrangement with a
department store and it would not
maintain prices. Now, know what
have been doing, and I know exactly
where I stand, and where the people
stand with whom I do business. I am
dealing with responsible concerns
which have money. When I make such
a deal, don't you suppose that my in
terests are as safe as they would be
with q small dealer with practically no
financial backing and little business
standing in the -World2"

SHOW OF BAD MANNERS.
California's Opposition to Hawaii
Shown in Discourtesy to Her
President.

San Francisco. Jan. 17.-when Presi-
dent Dole of Hawaii landed from the
steamship Peru this morning, he was
not received with the ceremony befit-
ting the ruler of foreign country. The
Peru arrived shortly after 8 o'clock last
night and the quarantine regulations
were not waived in favor of the visit
ing president, so he remained on board
all night.
When the steamer locked this morn
ing, President Dole was greeted by the
Hawaiian consul and a few friends, but
there We're no representatives of the
United States government to formally
welcome him. The customs officials
passed the baggage of himself and
family without inspection and that was
all. owing to the fact that the steamer
came in after dark last night, no salute
was fired by any of the forts around
the bay.

TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.
Furnished by the Associated Press to
the State Journal

WHEATThe feature in wheat at the
opening today was the surprising rally
at Liverpool Opening SD lower, that
market at 1880 p. m. had not only recover
ed this decline but had advanced 1s0%d
besides. This caused market strength at
the start here, May opening at 9034@zc,
against Saturdays closing price of 9O1Rc.
A few scalping sales caused a temporary
reaction to 9O5s9Ac, but the market be-
came strong again at once and advanced
slowly to Gle. Private Liverpool advices
said Argentine offerings were decreasing,
which was undoubtedly a factor in the
strength of the English market. New
York reported continental cables all
strong and higher and bringing liberal ac>
ceptances at limits higher than for weeks
past. Minneapolis and Duluth reported
receipts of 5S5 cars, compared with 53a
cars last week and 313 cars a year ago.
Chicago receipts were Is cars. Trad weas
very inactive. which acted as a drag on
the market, the undertone of which, how
ever was strong.
CORN AND OATS-Corn and oats, as
was the case all last week. were very dull,
with only narrow scalping trade doing.
Both markets were steady with wheat.
May corn opened a shade higher at 29G
291sc and held at that price. Receipts
were 323 cars. May oats opened a shade
higher at 23Ssd%c. That was the limit
of fiuctuation during great part of the
morning. Receipts We're 2O5 cars.
VISIONS-Provisions were quiet,
but strong with the hog market. May
pork opened a shade lower at 9:3O09 1924
and advanced to SO. 4216. May lard opened
a shade lower at $4.721k and advanced to
$4.75. May ribs opened a shade higher at

LOOSE METHODS IN COURT.
Frank Browns Case Shows How East
ly Worthless Bonds Are Accepted.

Frank o. Brown, ex-deputy city attor-
ney, who was arrested by the police on
the charge of passing forged checks, was
turned over to the state for trial Satur-
day and the date of his preliminary hear
ing set for January %. His bond was
fixed at $500. He was released on bond
signed by s. E. Spencer, but was rear
rested by Deputy Constable Jackson Sum
day afternoon and required to furnish a
new bond Spencers bond was found to
be worthless.
When the bond was fixed, Browns at
tOrney announced that. Spencer would
sign the bond. He also stated that Spen>
Ger was worth double the amount of the
bond. Spencer qualified, took oath that
he was worth at least 5000, and Brown
was released. Justice McClintock, who
accepted the bond, took the attorneys
word for it, and the county attorney did
not make objection. This gave rise to
the rumor that it was a rUse to allow
Brown to escape
A few months ago S. E. Spencer was
fined IS in police court by Police Judge
Atchison. He was unable to pay the fine
and worked it out. He has been en-
ployed by various parties in the past to
secure evidence against LIQUOR sellers. So
far as is known he does not own a bit
of property. Not three days ago he
begged a dime of Judge Atchisons father
with which to get a meal Justice Me-
Clintock said of the affair:
Browns attorney represented to me
that Spencer was perfectly good for the
bond On his statement I accepted the
bond When 1 found that he was not
worth anything I had him rearrested.'
The complaint in the case against Brown
is signed by W. s. Miller, proprietor or
the Empire grocery on West Sixth street.
The charge is that Of obtaining money I'M
der false pretenses. Miller says he will
prosecute Brown to the full extent of the
law. The bond in the case is a. very mod
crate one. When arrested Sunday Brown
secured a new bond and it was signed by
Elizabeth Colvin, his cousin.
Spencer's having signed the bond lays
him liable for perjury should the bond
be declared worthless.

COAL INTERESTS MEET.
Miners and Operators in Joint Con-
vention at Chicago.

Chicago. Jan IA joint convention
Of coal miners and operators represent
ing the fields of Illinois, Indiana, OHIO,
Pennsylvania and West Virginia was
called to order by NJ D. Ratchford,
president of the United Mine workers,
at 1890 O'Clock today. Permanent or
ganization was effected by the selec-
ton of w. H. HOlcomb, of Chicago, as
chairman; and two secretar1es-t- n;
Brooks of Ohio and w. c. Pearce OF
Chicago, the former representing the
miners and the latter the operators
A committee on credentials was select
ed consisting of one miner and one op-
orator from each state The selection
of a committee on rules and regulations
and order of business aroused cOnSld-
crab discussion, but was finally made
upon the basis of one miner and two
operators from each state with equal
voting powers. The convention then
took recess until o'clock.
About 500 delegates are in attendance
as a result of the recent Columbus con-
vention of miners to adopt a scale OF
wages for 1898. That convention de-
cided to meet the operators and dis
euss differences. The principal point
at issue is the sweeping demand of the
miners for the universal adoption or
the gross weight system and the
abandonment of screens. Then the min
erS will be paid for screenings, as well
as lump coal. The change would rev
olutiOnize the wage scale and Will be
vigorously cOmbatted by the operators.
West Virginia operators have as yet
been unrepresented in the convention

SCHRADER IN TOWN.
The Healer Arrives in Topeka
From New York City.

August Schrader, the so-called divine
healed, arrived in Topeka today at
noon.
He will spend two days in Topeka be
fore leaving for the Pacific coast. Mr..
Schrader wears a long black robe with
flowing sleeves. From around his neck
hangs suspended a crucifix. This does
not indicate that he is a Catholic.
He is a man of medium height, is 81
years of age, wears long hair which
rests on his shoulders and a full beard
of auburn When he speaks his eyes
become expressive and his mouth dis
closes two even rows of white teeth
Healer Schrader is of German descent,
but his language has no foreign ac-
cent. He does not ask money for bless
ing people. He says he depends entire
ly upon voluntary contributions.
He was born near Green Bay, Wis,
and four months ago he was married
to Miss Roberts, of Sioux City. She
will arrive in Topeka ina few days and
will accompany her husband west. Di-
vine Healer Schrader says that Schlat-
ter, is now in Chicago. This IS the
Sch1atter that is believed by those who
have seen the original, to be bogus.
Healer Schrader preached three times
Sunday at Horton in the Methodist
church. He says he blessed over 400
people. He has been in New York city
since August last where he has been or
ganizing the Divine church He is the
head of it and the members have to
agree to observe the three following
pledges:
First To believe in God, eternal
happiness and eternal condemnation.
Second, To believe in Jesus Christ
the Savior of the world.
Third, To uphold the Bible as it is
written.
Schrader says there are at present
over Sc, 900 members of the Divine
church, the headquarters of which are
in Greater New York. Healer Schra-
der intends organizing a Divine church
in Topeka.

FOR STEALING A DOG.
Will Bryant is Held to Answer in
Court a Charge of Larceny.

Will Bryant,a young man we'll known
among local base ball fans, was arrest
ed Sunday by the police and is held on
the charge of petit larceny.
The specific charge against him is
that of enticing from it's owners resi-
dence, and selling, a fine white bull dog
belonging to Fred Dietrich, cashier of
the Rock Island.
Bryant spends most of his time
around cigar stores and billiard halls.
and he had the dog, whose name is
''Knapper," following him all the time.
The dog staid at his house. A few
weeks ago he sold the dog to a man for
So and took in payment a pair of pat
ent leather shoes.
Fred Dietrich learned this and got
possession of the dog. Then the man
who had purchased the animal had
Bryant arrested, and at the trial Judge
Atchison deferred sentence on Bryant
on the condition that if he would settle
with the complaining witness, he would
discharge him
Bryant promised to do SO and was
released. He failed to do this, and for
a time was not seen on the streets.
Sunday he was found by a policeman
and will be arraigned before Judge
Atchison Tuesday morning.
