IN A KANSAS TOWN.

Oa1ofD from Other American Villo9ce
IN Many Respects.
Chiefly by reason of it's newness and
OF q certain cosmopolitan aspect the
Kansas town differs from villages else
where in the United States and presents
Q few interesting variations from the
common type, says Atlantic. The
largest town in the commonwealth has
hardly 10000 inhabitants. Most Of the
county seats in the eastern half of the
state, where the rainfall is copious and
where crops are bountiful and regular,
contain about 5000 persons each. The
county seat is in the strictest sense a
country town. The inhabitants live al.
most entirely upon the tributary coun-
try. There are no factories. The
money that the farmers Of the county
spend for food, clothing, fuel and the
comforts of the farm home is the cash
capital upon which the town does its
business. This capital Is passed from
the grocers to the clothing merchants,
to the druggists, to the furniture deal
erA to the hardware sellers and to pro-
fessional men. In the older commune
ties of the eastern and middle states
necessity has developed factories,
which convert raw material into fin
ished PRODUCTS, and money from the
outside world comes in. But Kansas is
yet hardly q generation old, and it has
not entered the manufacturing era OF
industry.

MAGAZINE RIFLES.

weapons That Are Serviceable After
Firing 5000 Rounds.
Some curious effects of the tests Of
the new magazine rifles in actual SER
vice are noted in Engineering. Cordite
was accused of causing rapid wear of
the riling, and this charge must have
had some foundation, as the Metford
rifing has been abandoned in the
weapona now issued, and has been re-
placed by the system devised by Rigby,
which is said to wear well and give
more accurate shooting than the Mann
kcher, Mauser or Lebel systems.
Certainly the wear cannot now DO
very serious matter, If the reports
can be relied on that accurate shoot
ing has been made even after firing
some thousands Of rounds and the
weapon is still serviceable after 5000
or 1000 rounds have been fired.
In the Toche punitive expedition the
new Dumbum bullet will be employed
that originally used having proved de-
ficient in stopping power. In the Chit
raj campaign one man was six times
shot, and nevertheless he recovered.
The private soldiers are, accordingly,
losing confidence in the weapon.

A handsome young wife,

Among the curious effects ascribed to
lightning l. the magnetization Of parts
Of rock struck by it, says the Detroit
Tribune. Tho existence Of such mag
nstized rocks has long been known, but
the supposition that their condition
was due in many cases to lightning has
only recently been confirmed by a
curious observation of DR.. Folgheraiter
among the walls Of ancient buildings
on the Campagna near Rome. He found
strongly magnetic points and zones in
the walls, precisely like those OCCASION
ally encountered in rocks The fact
that the magnetization often included
more than one block Of stone in the wall
was regarded as proving that the mag
netic property had BEEN acquired after
the building was erected, and the
agency Of lightning was indicated by
aeighboring cracks in the walls.

Buffalo Hill In Court.

A suit for a small amount
of money but one which in
wolves some interesting law
points was begun in the dis
trict court yesterday by Hen
ry X. Bartlett. The defend.
ant is Rod D. Leggat. Bart.
EFT in his complaint says that
on or about March Is, 1893,
he negotiated with the defend
ant to secure and purchase
from him the interests of c. H.
Palmer and of the defendant.
which is an undivided three.
elevenths interest in the Buffa.

situated in the Elk City Min.
ing district in Ida no county,
Idaho. The plaintiff says that
on the day of the negotiations,
he delivered to be deposited
with the defendant his check
on the First National Bank of
Butte for $500, which check
was to be held by the defend.
ant and held as an evidence of
the plaintiffs good faith in
making the offer to purchase
the interest, and with the un.
derstanding that in case of the
purchase by the plaintiff of the
three-elevenths interests, the
$500 was to apply upon the
purchase price of the interest
in the property, but if the sale
should not be consumated then
the $500 check was to be de.
livered back to the plaintiff.
The sale was never carried
out and all negotiations were
declared off. Defendant or
Mas S, 1898, cashed the check
and converted the same to his
own use without permission Of
the plaintiff The latter de-
manded the return of the mon
ey, but the defendant refused
to give it to him and now he
wants the court to order the
cash restored to hims

An Army Of Robbers.

Bismarck once said that
"war gives birth to three ar
mics: An army of widows,
an army of orphans, and an
army of thieves"
In the present war with
Spain the armies of widows
and orphans have not yet ma.
terialized, but the "army of
thieves has been conspicuous
~ in evidence from the mo-
ment the war clouds appeared
on the horizon. The bond
sharks have a free hand in the
treasury department, and
every son of his father who
has held a Federal Office in
the past 80 years is now the
recipient of fat salary as pay
master or inspector-general.
Next to the bond sharks and
the professional pap-suckers
and tax.eaters come the con-
tractors. and these latter rule
the roost and rob the people
with just as much complacency
as the bond sharks buy bonds
and the taX-eaters draw their
alarics. The equipment Of
the army and navy furnish the
latest kind of pickings for
these blood sucking leeches.
One of the latest instances is
the charge of 5000 for furnish
ing the Monitor Terror with
fresh water at Hampton Roads,
Our own Idaho volunteers COM
plain that the clothing fur
nished them is of the shoddiest
kind of cloth; and SO it goes.
| While our school children are
offering their pennies and nick
els, boarded for a holiday, for
the purpose of buying the vol
unteers a few luxuries, the
scoundrelly contractors are
swindling the government at
wholesale by furnishing armor
plates full of blow holes for
our ships, shoddy clothing for
our soldiers, and charging ex-
tortionate rates for every
thing needed during this war.
Yes, the army of thieves are
on deck and running the ship
of state pretty much as they
please.

The rowels of natures most powerful

In its honor the net was woven, the hoe

pease its cravings the wild bull Is
broken to the yoke, the forests are

On its errands the ship is launched
on the perilous deep and the band sent
