''General' Hugh Cameron, the Kan

He made a good record for himself in
the late civil war. Hermit Cameron is
20 years of age, but Is strong and hear

He has prepared the following letter
to the Kansas congressman, in which
he expresses his loyalty and his desire

Animated by patriotic ardor which is
purely American, by the precepts and
example of him who was first in war,
first in peace and first in the hearts of
his countrymen," and restrained by no
false mOdesty, come to you now to say
in all sincerity and reverence, that I
am now ready to serve Almighty God
and our poor humanity as a general in
the war to free and enfra nchise the en-
shaved and oppressed people of Cuba,
as Washington did the people of the
United States in the revolutionary war.

perpetuate Liberty and Union, were de-
clared meritorious by the president and
the senate of the United States, and
since that war I have kept myself in
training for the next war, which has
come about more tardily than had ex-
pected, by living most of the time in
camp, AVOIDING the enervating and evil
effects of fashionable feed and fine
clothes
The fact that I was abused in and
banished from the capitol of the United
States about year ago while in Wash
ington to attend the inauguration of our
patriotic president, only strengthens
my desire to serve as a general in the
war now pending, for as such would
be able to do much to deliver the OPP
pressed people of Cuba from fear and
from gross and outrageous wrongs.

the cause of Freedom and Enfranchise-

NOTHING SPANISH FOR HIM.
Drew the Line on Omelette and Hot
Tamales

A wealthy man from the east was
travelling on the California limited. and
while in Kansas he went in the dining
car for supper. He took the bill of
fare and looked it over. The waiter
stood at his elbow, waiting for the or
der.
Just bring me in a good meal" said
the man to the white coated waiter, as
he handed him a quarter
The waiter soon returned with his
tray loaded down with the best the
Kitchen afforded. The first thing he
laid down was a plate of omelette.
What is that?'' asked the man.
Spanish omelette," replied the wait
er.
Take it back." Numbered the east
erner. Il won't eat anything that is
Spanish"
The waiter took the omelette and re-
turned to the secrecy of the kitchen,
where he turned it over and brought it
back with a piece of lettuce on top.
What is that?" asked the man at the
table.
"An American frizzed egg" said the
waiter, and the man took it. After he
got further west. he ate hot tamaIes,
and said they were good until he found
out they were a Spanish dish.

were crushed by dragging on the ties.

RAILROAD NEWS.
Efforts to Hold a Convention of
Railroad BrOtherhOOds
Now Seem Likely to Be Crowned
With Success.
WILL MEET In JUNE.
According to Present Plan of
the Projectors.
Commercial Club Will Be Asked
to Assist.

The idea to have the different orders of
railroad men meet in Topeka has not been
given up and the Representatives of the
different orders are still working on the
matter Conductor Henry May is one
of the prime movers and is working ear
nestly to bring the proposed convention
here in June.
The arrangements for such a meeting
will take no small amount of time and
work and the railroad men must find
someone to help them carry out their
wishes The matter has been laid before
the Commercial club and those interested
in the matter say that with a little assist
ance from the business men of Topeka
the meeting can be secured and made a
success.
The different orders of railroad en-
pioyes are corresponding with their pres
idents and grand masters with the idea
of bringing the leaders of each organiza-
LIon mere for the meeting The railroad
meeting for Kansas and not especially for
Iopeka; While the convention will likely
gotten up and carried out by the railroad
men of Kansas in general. 1t will not be
have representative and all will work to
the same end, to bring together the rail-
vention for the good of the railroad men
IN general and to discuss topics of interest
TO the men OF the road
meeting would be a mammoth parade,
participated in by all the different orders
and reviewed by the grand masters Of
the orders.
There has never been a railroad mems
convention of the kind held in the coun-
try and if the Kansas contingent of the
many influential orders can succeed in
their undertaking it will be likely to be
the first step towards a series of such
conventions to be held in different cities
of the country and will finally become a
regular feature There is but a short
time for the arrangements to be compIet-
ed. but those actively engaged in the en-
terprise are certain that il can be made a
enlargement.

RACE WITH A CYCLONE.
Thrilling Experience of Those Aboard
Union Pacific Train.

To run a 40 mile race with a cyclone
and come under the wire ahead of it is
a record breaking performance, yet ac-
cording to Thomas Snively, of Column
bus, Ohio, that is what a Union Pacific
passenger train did out in Windy Ne
braska.
TT was the grandest sight I ever
saw" said Mr.. Snively. t'It was about
% miles west of Wood River. Neb., that
the sky began to darken- 1t became so
dark I could not read We could see
by the trees and land that a terrific
gale was blowing. Looking over the
prairie to the southwest 1 saw a black
funnel reaching from a heavy cloud to
the earth. 1t seemed to be about five
miles away from US, but to be coming
in our direction BY this time every
body in the train knew what was fol-
lowing US, and there being many east
ern people aboard, there was almost a
panic in our car.
Fifteen minutes after the funnel ap-
peared it seemed to gain three or four
miles on US, and when we passed
through Wood River it did not appear
to be half a mile away In fact, when
its center swayed the edge of the dead
ly wind cylinder seemed to be sweep
ing the roof of our cars We went
through the little town Of Wood River
like a shot There was not a person in
sight in the town. The funnel that had
been following US now seemed to be
