How the Telephone Is Con-
centrating This Section.
FORTY THREE STATIONS
Gap Will Soon be Filled Con-
Meeting Us With Oklahoma,

WiosIita is taking an important part in
this age of concentration. Had the west
been settled one hundred years ago, the
situation of the town today would have
been something after the manner Of one
of the inland towns of long ago.
We would have a daily stage from New
ION with mail advices. Today - would
know nothing of the signing of the peace
treaty. The papers would be weekly. The
Sedgwick county members to the legfsla-
ture would be setting out on horse back
for Topeka \ mail would 90 down INFO
Oklahoma daily. Passengers would arrive
four al a tine. There would be innum-
cradle hotels strung along the country,
TO accommodate the few traVeiers in the
stage coaches. A merchant in Okia.lorna
ordering goods wholesale would send a
letter by post 70 Wichita unstamped.
The order would De filed and dispatched
by wagon freight. Arkansas City would
be days run.
But the railroads made il different. and
with the railroads came the telegraph
They concentrated matters. The news %
Hong Kong today is the news Of Wichita.
SO much for the matter Of expedited IN
formation. Buc the greatest concentra-
ton was Of commerce. The wholesale
points increased, and are today in this
country ssngularly distant just rwe.ve
hours run from one another.
The finishing tolzch Of concentration IS
the long distance telephone and 81 tais

knows everybody in town and everybody

in politics, treating all politicians in the
warmest personal manner. and seeing no
harm in them individually, but at the
same time, holding forth in a condemna-
tory vein against the politicians" The
politician was running the country. The
politicians were plainly no good. But ask
ed TO name a politician, one Of the kind
he was condemning. and ne was lost
The other day, some two weeks ago in
fact, he received a letter which having
been duly opened. proved 90 be a letter
from his Old friend Win Wyeth OF Har-
din, Cloud county. Kansas, and the let,
ter ran TO this effect:

him. You are no doubt old friends-and
now Will Won take me up TO mis- office

Mr. Watts removed mis- spectacles and
said to the clerk after reading the letter
aloud;
'Win Wyeth is an old fool, Calling
Stanley Ion and talking about tirnidttv,

So ne wrote 10 Mr.. Wyeth and told him

How A POPE Is ELECTED.-The Ro-
man Court, which phrase includes all
those who assist the Pope in administer
ing the diocese of Rome, consists of the
Sacred College of Cardinals, the eccles-
iastical tribunals and the legstes, Wears
and projects known as apostolics. Only
the Cardinals have voice in electing a
Pope. Ga the morning OF the eleventh
day after the death Of Pope, the
Cardinals gather 10 St. Peters. After
mass they proceed to the Vatican and
enter the conclave. From this session
a Cardinal may not retire, even because
OF illness, and reclaim his seat. The
, session is continuous. If one leaves he
does not return. The windows are
walled up, the doors leading to the con-
clave are sealed. Strict oh is kept
that no messages be sent in. Three
Cardinals chosen by lot act as tellers.
The ballot box is large vase shaped
like chalice, placed on the altar of the
chapel where the Cardinals are assem-
bled. Each Cardinal takes, before de-
posting his ballot, an oath, "that he
chooses the person whom he judges
ought to be elected" A third vote
is necessary to elect.

A SCENE IN CoURT.-The Lynchburg
mayors court was the scene yesterday
Of a remarkable occurrence. Eivia
Robertson, colored, was being tried 4
a charge Of larceny, and Sarah Mayo
also colored, was on the witness-stand
testifying as to the identity of certain
articles which, it was claimed, the ac'
cused had stolen. Just as the witness
stated that she recognized certain skirts
the prisoner arose as il TO ask question
she was seen to put her hand behind
her as if 10 arrange her skirt. when
without any warning, she drew aslung-
shot from under her clothes and a.
saulted the witness, cutting bloooy
gasbes in her head AID striking her i'll
the face. When seized by the police
the uufuriated woman twisted herstl Il
loose. and, picking up q heavy iron
cuspidor, threw it at the spectators
she was finally overpowered ard
placed in cell.
