GIVE HER THE MONEY.
Editor of the Lincoln Republican
Ought Not to QuibbIe About
This S5

A short time ago Will Menoher, editor
Of the Lincoln Republican, advertised
in his paper that he would give IS in
cash to any voter who could show
that he had been benefited to the
amount of five cents either by Webb
McNalls fight on the insurance COM
panies or by Boyle's fight on the Kansas
City stock yards. Mrs. Eliza A. Heller
made affidavit that she had been com
PEELED by an insurance company to set
tie a $500 loss for $500. She said that
McNau heard of it in some way I'M
known to her and wrote to her twice
asking if his Information was correct.
She replied to the second letter say
ing that it was correct, and in about
four weeks she received a check from
the insurance company, through Nc
Nall, for 500, the balance of the insur-
ance- Armed with this affidavit Mrs.
Heller claimed the IS, but Mr.. Menoher
refused to pay 1t on the ground that she
was not a voter, and he made the offer
to voters only.

RAISES SUGAR BETS.
a Cheyenne County Farmer Opens Up
a Paying Industry.

St. Francis, Oct. 28.-Franl1 Graves.
living out in Cherry Greek township, has
been experimenting with growing sugar
beets this year and a small patch that
he raised made the astonishing yield of
"a tons, S25 pounds to the acre.
He has sent a sample of the beets to
the governmental station at Manhattan,
where they will be tested. He has one
beet that weighs Is pounds, but the size
preferred for making sugar is from one
10 two pounds The price usually paid
is said to be $3.50 a ton. This would
soon open up a wonderful field for the
production of sugar. where it is uni
versaIly admitted that we can raise the
finest beets in the world, and may lead
to great results in the near future.

ugIiest ones viii always show up in
front.
A man may admit that he can't sing
when he is in town, but he is always
willing to try while driving in the coun-
try.
Before expressing your honest cOnvic-
tons these days, you must lock your
self in a room and plug up the key
hole.
The surprising thing about heaven
is that it remains a heaven with so
many different women living under the
same roof.
"A scientist isn't considered smart
these days unless he invents something
that expIodes and kills at least three
people.
An Atchison girl studied music from
the time she was twelve years old until
she was twenty-eight, and dressmaking
ever since.
When the women help a family in
distress, they say they have mo use"
for the husband, but do it on account
of his poor wife.
If women were as crazy after the
men as some allege, they would not
work so hard to go to heaven, where
they know there will not be any.

Old Plea of Eugene Burke of Cofey-
Vile on Trial For Insanity.

CoffeyviIIe, Oct 2S.-Sherin Squires
has taken Eugene Burke to the Osawa-
tonne asylum, adjudged as being IN
sane after two hearings before jur1es-
The case of Burke is a peculiar one Ac-
cording to the testimonies of his broth
ers brOther-in-law and sister, Burke
had shown no signs Of insanity until
within a couple of weeks. He had
been good tempered and pleasant, but
suddenly developed vicious and danger
Gus tendencies, assaulting his brother
and threatening to kill all of the stock
on the premises. Before the jury Burke
showed no signs of insanity, but in fact
seemed brighter and smarter than any
of the family The first jury could not
agree on a verdict of insanity.
Burke himself claimed that his violent
actions were simply criminal and not
insane and protested vigorously against
the verdict of the second jury, but it
was of no use.

POLITICAL GOSSIP.

A SaIina boy who is in the Twentieth
regiment, writes home that he has
polled Company M, which was recruited
in Saline and Ottawa counties, and 1t
shows that there are so Republicans, IA
Populists, and 1 prOhibitiOnist in the
company; the rest not reporting.
There is a greater difference of opin-
ion among the POpulistS concerning the
majority which Ridgely win get in the
Third district than over any other queS-
ton Some place it as low as 5000,
while others who are more sanguine say
that it will reach 5000. Meanwhile the
Republicans insist that Kirkpatrick has
an even chance to carry the district.
The Populists around the state house
profess to believe that Frank Grimes
himself sent out the cartoons of State
Treasurer HedebOwer and himself,
which were sent out in the old envelopes
of the Republican state central commit
tee. They say that Cy Leland irOnical-
" advised Grimes to circulate them,
and he thought Cy was in earnest.
Chairman Albaugh, of the Republican
state central committee, went home to
Kingman yesterday to attend StanIey's
meeting there
Chase Johnson, of the state auditor
office has returned from a trip out into
the Fourth district to help save the
country, and incidentally to try to make
votes for Henderson Martin.
