Some of the shOrt-grass Republicans

tX years has had more than her share
of the honors. The claim is made that
the state and federal government has
paid Atchison county men, during that
time, total of 1915, 900, while half the
counties in the state during all of that
time have had less than one-fourth of
that amount.
The following figures and data are
used by the short grass people in sup
port of their claims:
Albert H. Horton, Atchison county,
chief justice Of the supreme court for
twenty years, at a salary of $4,000 per
year, drew total of $4,000 from the
state.
Judge David Martin, in the same po-
S1t1On for two years, drew $4,000.

tor for eighteen years drew, including

SHOCK SAVANNAH SOCIETY
Gay Young Society Swell is Roughly
Cowhided.

Savannah, Ga, Feb. 17.-Savannah So
ciety was shocked today by a sensation,
the like of which it has not known in
years. John NJ. Bryan, cashier of the
Oglethorpe Savings and Trust company,
and his son, Stern Bryan, walked into the
office of Epping & Co., cotton exporters,
on Bay street, about O. clock this morn
ing, with cowhides and pistols in hand
and proceeded to lay out J. F. F1ournoy,
a member of that firm and a well known
young man of Savannah society. They
soundIy thrashed him with the cowhides,
cutting him somewhat severely on the
face and neck.
Flournoy could make resistance, be-
ing unprepared and unarmed.
1t seems that someone wrote Mr.. Bryan
an anonymous letter to the effect that
FIournoy had taken his daughter, who is
prominent member Of social circles, to
certain affair here known a French
ball This was about two months ago.
The ball was attended en- masque, and it
is said the attendance generally was
from the population of the lower stratum
of society. When Mr.. Bryan heard the
report he went to Flournoy yesterday aft
ernoon.
FIournoy denied positively taking Miss
Bryan to the ball, but the young lady ad-
mitted to her father that she had gone
to look on, not knowing what the nature
of the affair was, and left as soon as she
understood it.
Bryan and his son then went to Flour
noy's office and gave him whipping,
after which they warned him to leave
town by night, threatening him with fur
Their punishment if he did not do so.

RED CROSS IN THE SKY.
The Phenomenon Seen From the
Nyack Mills Just Before Sum
set Yesterday.

Nyack, Feb. IA number of persons
living west OF the Nyack hills witnessed
a phenomenon in the sky shortly before
sunset last evening that filled them
with wonderment and awe. The sun
was vet a short distance above the
horizon, with it's face nearly hidden by
clouds.
Suddenly part of the clouds seemed to
melt away, and the sun shone partly
through those that remained, with blood
red light in the form of a perfect cross.
The sight did not last long, but for
few moments it looked as if a cross of
crimson had been set in the sky just
above the western hills.
The cross was so perfect in form that
the sight of it was striking and i'm
pressiVe one. SuperstitiOus people were
nervous over the phenomenon.

DISCOVER EMINGO'S GRAVE.
Workmen Dig Into the Resting Place
of the Last of the Ponkapogs.

Boston, Feb. 17.-Men engaged in exca-
waiting for a new road near Robbins
street, Milton, today made an interesting
discovery. 1t became necessary to cut
through gravelly knoll which has long
been known Mingo hill. About six feet
below. the surface the workmen came up
of five graves. Five dark
brown streaks in the yellow gravel, from
five to six feet in length, side by side, in
parallel lines. were sufficient to establish
the character of the mound. History and
tradition identify the graves as those of
NIingo, the last of the Ponkapogs, and
his family.
The Rev. DR.. A. K. Teele, the historian
and antiquarian of the town, finds that
in 1853 there stood near this spot a hum
HE dwelling, where lived Mingo, then an
aged man, the last of the once powerful
tribe of Ponkapogs. The name of the
tribe is perpetuated in that of the hamlet
al the foot of the southern slope of the
hill and also in that of the pond few
rods away. Near the shore of the pond
is the summer home of Thomas Bailey

NAME IN A TREE
Found in the Innermost Ring When
the Poplar Was Cut Down.

Dayton, O.. Feb. H-Mr. William J.
Herman, in cutting down poplar tree in
front of his residence today, discovered
upon the innermost ring surrounding the
heart of the trunk, letters which fairly
spelled the name of u. Deakler."
The tree is fully half century old,
and calculation shows that the letters
were inscribed upon the trunk fully 45
years ago. The name is unknown to any
of the residents of the vicinity, which is
a suburb. and so years ago was a forest.
The freak of nature was placed in the
mayors office, and will be donated by Mr.
Herman to the library museum.

ANSWERS ST. JOHN.
Secretary Stephens Says the Temper
ance Union Isn't Partisan.

Secretary Stephens of the State Tenn
perance union, when shown that part
of John P. St. Johns recent interview
in which the latter declared that the
union had been for years nothing but
a Republican sideshoW, said:
Governor St John is nOe doubt a big
man, but in that statement he certain
ly declared what he is not able to
prove.
There are more Republicans among
the officers, the executive committee,
and the members of the union than
there are those of any other party, but
that does not by any means make it a
partisan organization.
1.-The larger part of its financial sup
port comes from members of the Re
publican party, but no one in the Re
publican party who contributes to its
support expects for a moment that q
single penny thus given will be used
for partisan purposes.
What the union may have been in
years long gone by do not know, but
if the charges which were made then
were as Senseless and foolish and
groundless as they are now some of the
persons making such charges ought to
have been branded as malicious SLAM
derers.
During the two and one-half years
of my connection with the union I have
not known of a single one of our Off
GERS or executive committee who has
attempted in any way to make of the
union a Republican or a POpuliSt par
tisan organization, and if Governor St.
John or any other man can point to enc
single partisan act during this period
he certainly ought to have an oppor-
tunity of being heard.
AT our last executive committee
meeting, the majority of those present
were Republicans, but it was a Populist
who presided at the meeting. And all
last year it was a POpulist who was
the vice president of the congressional
district in which the governor resides.
This year a Republican has been made
vice president of that district, and Mr..
St. John calls the State Temperance
union a Republican sideshow.
IF the governor would refuse to sign
drug store permits and would turn his
battery upon the joints instead of fight
