WELLINGTON JOINTISTS
Who Have Paid Occupation TAI
Ahead Refuse to Close.

Wellington, April 14-The jointists of the
city are worked up over the fact that
they have been notified by City Attor-
ney Woods to quit business or suffer the
penalty of the law
One jointist, who has his occupation tax
paid for the months of May and June, de-
clared that he would close up and then
sue the city to recover the tax money col
lected from him in advance. Some of the
jointists have fatty refused to close, al
though they all admitted that if the city
attorney were persistent enough in his eff
forts he could make it so exceedingly I'M
profitable for them that they would be
compelled to quit business.

STATE HOUSE ITEMS.

The state school fund commission to-
day invested $35, 900 in Abilene munich
pal bonds. This leaves but $35, 900 to be
used for the commission for the pur-

The state board of charities has filed
reports of the expenses of six of the
charitable institutions for the month of
March. The expenses of the different
institutions are as follows: Insane asy-
lum. Osawatomie, $9,69444; deaf and
asylum, Winfield, s1,2O7.57. and boiler
house and repairs, 81 $50. so; blind asy-

peradoes who assaulted Deputy Sheriff
Patterson of Marshall county and

and by the county commissioners of
Marshall county, the citizens of the
county have offered similar rewards.
This makes the capture of the three
men worth 81, 800.
d. A. Wallace, the man who secured
5000 on a fraudulent draft from the
Caney Valley bank of Caney, Kan. on
April 2, is supposed to be in custody in
Kansas City. A man answering his de-
scription was arrested there and last
evening Governor Leedy issued a. re-
QUESTION to the sheriff of Montgomery
county for his return. Wallace is be-
IeVed to be an accomplice of the man who
secured $500 from the Condor State
bank at Oswego and 5000 from the
Cherokee State bank at Cherokee on
the same day and in the same manner,
as the forged drafts used by both men
were drawn by the same firm and on
the same bank. The men who operated
at Oswego and Cherokee was described
as tall and dark, while Wallace is de-
scribed as having red hair and short of
stature. The name Wallace is supposed
to be an alias. There is a reward of
$500. issued by the Condor bank, for the
capture of the other sharper.

ton between father of kings,
sovereign and vicar of Christ
is not particularly obvious or
natural. all three are nevertheless con-
sistent with the idea of a merely tenn
poral sovereignty. Even as a ruler of
his dominions the pope rules them In a
measure as the vicar, or better. as the
viceroy of Christ. while the other two
designations can aus no difficulty.
This. at any rate. is better than the
symbolism which interrets the coron-
cts as indicating the trinity or the char
acters of priest, prophet n king. for
these last throw overheard the distinc-
ton between spiritual and temporal
functions altogether. 1t nay be noted,
10. that when the pope certificates the
uses no crozier as other bishops do.
But in certain functions, indicated in
the ceremoniale, as, e. e.. in the con-
secration of bishops. churches and al
tars, he holds in his hands the ferula,
pastoral rod or scepter, surmounted
with a small cross patee. Now, just as
the simple circlet of early ages has
blossomed into a triple crown. so this
plain ferula has probably given rise to
the cross with three transoms which
has become one of the attributes of the
papacy i'm art and heraldry.
\ few lords will suffice to explain
this. 1t is well known that a cross is
always carried before an archbishop,
and this theraldic usage notwithstand-
ing) in origin and fact Is a simple
cross. Now, AT some time in the fif-
teenth century, il appears to have
been argued that the papal cross. in
asmuch as the pope was of a higher
dignity than an archbishop. should be
distinguished by a double par. There is
a panel in the vatican museum, dating
from about 1866. i'm which there is a
representation OF st. Peter. holding
such a double barred cross in his hand.
When, however, even simple bishops
began To introduce an ordinary cross
into their coat of arms. the archbishops
then thought that they were entitled

er dignity of the papacy.
Lastly, the knowledge that "A triple
crown, as we learn from Josephus. was
worn upon the head dress of the high
prizes; of the Jews. may very possibly
have had some effect in furthering the
development OF the papal triregno. NJ.

speak again further on.
Another widely received theory
would regard the tiara. partly on ac-
count Of its strange appearance n

of the head dress of the Jewish high
priests. of which we may read in Jo-
sephus. Itwould be hard to assert thar

early date. e. in the medallions be-

Again. il has been asserted that the

has no better foundation than the
blunder of an artist who. in copying
