1898, Mr. and Mrs. John France and
Mr.. and Mrs. A. R. Bell of Decatur,
while aboard a steamer in Lake Huron
near the Straits of Mackinaw, threw
overheard a tightly corked bottle of
very thick glass, containing a brief
note to the nnder and signed by all of
the four. They had entirely forgotten
the incident until this week, when Mr..
France received by mail a note from
H. Kaumaker of Columbus O., stating
that he had, while at the Dewey fes-
tivities in New York, picked up the
bottle. which was floating in New York
harbor. 1t was ven tightly sealed and
the note was found just as written.
Mr.. kaumaker expressed the hope that
all the four were alive and well. The
bottle, apparently. had made the jour
ney through Lake Huron, Lake Erie,
over Niagara and through the Whirl-
pool, followed the Niagara river to
Lake Ontario and thence down the St.
Lawrence 10 the sea, whence it was

IS 1T A BLUFF.
Tim Burk Says KIOndike Raid
Are a Farce.
Leavenworth, kan. oct. 1s. 1899.

Ieavenworth, Kan, Oct. 16, 1899,
TO the Editor of the State Journal:
As predicted by John Boyer. the great
farce of Closing the KIOEdike is on.
Noluminous proceedings have been in
Stttuted against some of the small fry
while the real principals and proprie-
tors are unmOlested. If the governor
thinks he can play that game he is mis-
taken, Tt won't work. He may bam-
boozle ether parts of the state, but We
propose to see that he does his duty.
The sheriff and county attorney have
had rich pull with the Klondikers
and this whole fight is a sham. Be
fore the grand raid the other day to
pull nine stool pigeons due and timely
notice was given" and only a few bot
ties of innocent soda water was found.
The county is now to be put to a whole
lot of cost to prove that those outlaws
ana ScOundrelS have been selling Ii
quors, when they have been pleading
guilty four times a year and paying a
holdup to the Delaware township Off
Gals for their cOnnivance. Every one
of those officers should be put on the
witness stand. There is no sense any
how in all this delay and maneuVer. 1t
IS all done for effect and in the mean
time the legitimate business of this city
IS losing hundreds of dollars every
week Then to leave thirteen Rlondik-
erS and ten road houses doing an i'm
mense traffic that ought to come to
LeavenWorth is adding insult to injury
AS soon as the Sheriff'S back was turned
everything was in place again and run
ming as usual. We are in bad humor
TO brook any more foOlishness. BY the
way, we understand that Brother Bell
and other Delaware township officials
are now attending church regularly and
throwing at the collection plates liber-
ally to line up the pious voters for re-
election.

Stockmen In Texas Improving Breeds

Austin. Texas. Oct. 1s.-There has been
a large growth in the cattle industry of
west and southwest Texas during the past

as shown by the rendered tax rolls: this
crease of probably 200. 600 head The de-
cline in this industry is due principally to
railway enterprises In former years
many thousands of head of horses and
mules were raised in Texas and shipped
to towns and cities throughout the United
States for use as motive power on street
railway lines. The demand for the cele-
brated Ie1as broncho or cow pony mas

of 81, 1873. 500. The increase in the number
of hogs in the state over last year will

But one tin expert came out, stopping on

GOING TO WIN.

Wisconsin Coach Has No Fears of
Eastern Trip.
Phil King, coach of the football team
of Wisconsin university said when the
team left:
I'VE are going east to win. If Yale
beats US the team will have to play it's
best to accomplish the trick. I do not
wish to seem boastful over the team,
but can say that every member of our
eleven is ready to do or die. We are
in fairly good condition. Our defense
has been a, little weak, still it may be
patched up all right. We shall practice
assiduously While in the east, and I'M
less accidents should befau US we will
give a good account of ourselves. Yale
has a strong team, and their line may
be more formidable than ours. In
punting and kicking O'Dea should out
class anV man at Yale"

Poor Racing al Morris Park.

New York, Oct. ia good sized
crowd watched the poorest days rae
ing of the season at Morris park to-
day. The track was heavy and with
drawals We're so numerous that only
two started in the fifth and three in the
sixth race. The last race developed into
a farce. The conditions called for a
mile and three-quarters over the With
ers course. On the start Spurs OdOm
up and julius Caesar, Slack up, went
out to make the running. but instead of
turning across the Withers bend, went
on over the hill course. Wilson, on
Maid of Harlem, had his wits about
him, took the right course, and practic-
ally had a walk-Over. OdOm saw his
mistake when rounding the upper turn
and he pulled up and went back, tax
ing his horse over the course for sec
ond money. Slack, on Julius Caesar,
kept on, however, and was disqualified
as he had not gone the right course.
Both boys were called up in the stand
for an explanation, but nothing was
given out by the stewards. In the first
race, steeplechase at about two
miles, four of the seven horses who
ran fell. Burgess, who rode Hardy C.,
was badly hurt, the doctors diagnosing
his case as conclusion of the brain.

WAsHBURN-oTTAWA
Football Teams to Meet In Topeka
Saturday.

James Hughes, one of the strongest
players on the Washburn team has with
dra wn from the game and his place at full
back viii be filled by Bishop. The loss of
Hughes IS a serious one for no player on
the team used quite so much dash and
vigor as he. 1t is hoped that Hughes viii
re-enter the game before the contest next
Saturday with Ottawa. 1t is conceded
that this will be an evenly matched game
and Washburn can i'll afford to lose
Hughes in such a contest.
The Ottawa Washburn game Saturday
should be the best seen In Topeka this
season. The teams are evenly matched
but Washburn's hard practice of the past
week ought to give the home team the
victory.
