INSULTS FOR LOUBET.
Frances Ruler Greeted With Storm of Hoots and Struck With a Cane-Anna
 Gould's Husband Arrested.

Paris. June 6.-President Loubet, ac- companied by the premier, M. Dupuy, yesterday drove to the Auteull races. On arriving at Auteuil they were met by violent demonstration, evidently organized and directed against the president. There was storm of hoots, wells and cries of 'Panama," "A bas Loubet" and "Vive farmee." A few shouts of "Vive Loubet' were drowned in the clamor. A strong force of police kept order and arrested many of the disturbers, including man who tried to force his way to the presidents car riage. During the second race the clamor increased to violence and was plainly directed by committee of the League of Patriots. At the crisis of the excitement, while shouts of ''Vive l'armee!" and "Vive de Roulede" were heard on all sides, Count Christiano rushed toward the president, brandishing stick, and directed blow against him, striking his hat. The crowd rushed upon Christiano, who only escaped severe handling by being taken under police protection. Presi- | dent Loubet remained all the while | quite unmoved, talking to the premier, while the officers of the military house. hold were defending him against vio- lence. Finally, after 30 arrests had been made, the prefect of police or | dered the republican guards to sur round the presidential stand. Comtesse Boni de Castellane, who was Miss Anna Gould, of New York city, placed her self at the head of the Jeunesse Roy aliste and marched up and down the lawn shouting ''Vive r armee." Comte Boni de Castellane and his brother Jean were arrested, but soon liber- ated.

HOMESTEAD RIGHTS.
Circular to Veterans Against Being Defrauded Of Their Land Claims.

Topeka, Kan., March .9 -Imposters of new class are defrauding the fam lilies of the old soldiers and sailors in Kansas of their homestead rights, which were conferred by the national government at the close of the civil war Many complaints have been re- eeived at the statehouse. Similar complaints have made their way to the United States land office. Department Commander Eastman has issued cir cular as follows:
 The department commander is reliably in- formed that parties are securing the country buying up these rights for a merely nominal sum, making the, soldiers or their families be- lieve that the rights in question are practically worthless while as matter of fact, parties. in some instances, willing to give BIS an acre for them Circulars issued from Washington, and other ,laces. offering II 50 an acre for these claims. and fl0 for every 40 acres sl5 for Sl acres s20for r acres. on any accepted case to the one giving the information. If there is any benefit to be derived from these claims. it should be enjoyed by the soldier and his family.
The Mena star., 1899-03-23

it is already apparent that Ameri- cans are determined to take full advantage of the generosity of their government. Claims to the amount of $21, 100000 have thus far been filed with the state de- partment, and more claimants will doubtless be heard from before congress assemblies next winter and devises a plan for disposing of tho claims.
 How many or what proportion of these claims will be allowed cannot now be estimated; indeed, it may be years before they are finally adjudicated and ordered paid. It seems to be clear, how ever, that the claimants are not the leastwisc modest. That was to have been expected, perhaps. Whenever an opportunity is given the people to put their hands into the treasury they insist upon show ing them clear up to the elbows. Patriotism takes wings when there is a chance to get public money.

THE DEcADENcE OF THE THUG,
(From the Kansas City Star.)


 The indictment as common nuisance of the murderer, Colonel Jack Chinn, of Kentucky, isa well come example of the decadcnce of the killer. It Is being discovered that there is probably no greater sham than the pretentions of the so-called s'bad man." The day has come when the bully who car ries pistols and threatens to slay his enimies on sight is considered a vicious crank and Is so treated.
 There is now no respect for and little fear of this creature where he once was lionized. Like an aboriginal animal of queer form and habits, the haunts of the thug and bruiscr are narrowing down and he appears only in a circum- scribed area of the United States.
 The downfall of the great American swashbuckler is not be- cause of a deterioration of courage by any means, but 1t Is distinctly the result of the growth of manli- ness Progressive cit.zens-the men who keep this town moving forward-regard the person who talks about ''gun play as weak minded, or ignorant. or a rank coward. The transformation in the status of the thug in Kansas City is evidence of q revolution more tremendous than ten story buildings. Not so many years ago the man with q pistol in his pocket enjoyed considerable dis tinction in this community. Now he is an object of contempt.

FOR STATE RAILROADS.

The announcement in a recent issue of the Star, from Little Rock to the effect that our state senate had passed blll authorizing the construction, equipment and oper- ation of state railroads, Is a mat ter of far reaching importance. Should this measure become a law in this state it would show that the idea of municipal ownership of public utilities so prevalent in cit ies was taking hold of the people at large and permeating the minds of ourlegislators.

GROWING CANTALOUPES.

The Van Buren Venture is au- thority for the statement that the horticultural society of that place has ordered 500 pounds of canta- loupe seed, 300 of which has been shipped, and that the society pro- poses to plant 800 acres into these mellons.
 The prospects for scarcity of fruit this coming season, notably peaches. will cause cantaloupes to be in great demand and find ready sale, yet it would seem that our Van Buren friends are in danger of overdoing the matter in plant ing 500 acres tho first year.
 As cantaloupcs grown in this section can be gotten into market eight or ten days ahead of those grown at Van Buren, it would seem that our people would do we'll to plant a reasonable acreage enough to enable them to ship in car load lots. We are assured that if sufficent amounts can be grown at this and other points along the road, a fast freight tram will be put on to take this fruit to the markets.

AN ANSWER.

Rev. c. F. Thompson, who un- dertook to conduct an employ ment bureau here, is in receipt of a neatly written letter, from which we quote as follows:
 ''Through F. M. Moore of Bos- ton, Mass, 1 have copy of the Mena Star of Febuary 8. l notice you have an employment bureau. Is there chance in your city for an honest, industrious Vermont man who is married and has two childreng Could l get employ ment with the prospect of going into business myself after bocom- ing acquaintedl l could bring about $l 300 with me. Your city seems to be destined to grow and become central point for busi- ness.
 The writer then continues, giv- ing something of his personal qualifications and tells of the lines of business he has had experience in, indicating that he is an ex perienced business man.
 As this is only one of several similar letters occasionally re- ceived by citizens and at this office, we make general answer:
 While there IS scarcely doubt but that man possessing the means and qualifications named could readily get into business here and do we'll, yet it is hardly practical for any one to secure the engagements desired without be- ing personally on the ground to see and be seen.
 There is no other way that a man can tell whether he is likely to be suited with his surroundings and associates or they with him.
 There is scarcely shadow of doubt but that man who has the indcdendence to break away from associations of an old state like Vermont, possessing the capital and qualifications named, would succeed here in getting into busi- ness and would accumulate prop erty faster than to stay where he is, but he should never make such a change on the advice of a l stranger who may honestly see things differently from what he would.
 We believe that there is room and work in this new and unde- yeloped country for numerous men of the kind from whose letter we quote and surely they are well come here and will meet with en- couragement in any laudable undertaking.

 It was stipulated in the Paris peace treaty that the United States government wonld assume the re- sponsibility for the payment of all claims presented by its own citi- zens for property destroyed in Cuba or other Spanish possessions during the war, while Spain agreed to assume a like responsi- biiity on the part of its citizens.

Misinterpreted the Law.

Leavenworth, Kan, March l9. Pearl Harrison, who was married to Frank Harrison at Weir City, February 2, 1896, has filed suit for divorce, although she has been living with J. D. Wilson, to whom she was married. Harrison was sent to the penitentiary for lar ceny and she believed that such con- finement caused husband and wife to be divorced without further action of the courts. When Harrison was re- leased few days ago, and having learned his wife was in the city, he presented himself at her house and claimed her. Hence the suit for divorce.
