COWBOYS CHASTITY FIND.
ri.coyers Body of Man and Woman Who
Had Killed themselves.

Csney, Kan, Aug. 27.-John
geoua, a cowboy, brought the news
10 this town yesterday of a CHASTITY
ind which he had made just north
a the Leheu ranch, in the Usage
nation, southwest of here.
While searching for some stray
cattle Requa came upon the dead
bodies Of man and woman lying in
dump of trees just off the Cedar
gale and Pawhuska trail. The bodies
had. been partially devoured by the
wolves, but the features were still
intact.
The woman was young, golden
haired and beautiful. The man was
apparently so years old. The pair
had been moving through the coun
try in a wagon. and, from a note
which was found in the wagon, it
vas evident that they had committed
suicide The note was In the mans
handwriting, and stated that they
we're out of money; that starvation
stared them in the face, and that
they had concluded to die together
in this wild and unknown place. The
note was not signed.
The bodies had evidently been
there several days, as they were
badly decomposed. One of the
horses, which was tie Il to the wagon,
vas 50 nearly starved to death that
il could not stand up. The only clew
to the identity of the pair is an en-
yslope, found In the wagon and
bearing the address, ct. B. Slavens,
Moberly, Mo-" The spot where they
we're found is ten miles from any
house, and is in the widest portion
Of the Usage nation, being surround
cd by hills on all sides.

Captain Watkins and the Paris.

In an editorial in the current mum
Der of Hsrper's Weekly, an excellent
point is raised against the system
now in vogue in navigating ocean
vessels as recently disclosed by the
investigation concerning the ground
ing of the Paris. Captain Watkins
apparently made his calculations
alone. ard il was not considered nee
essary that calculations be made by
another officer for the sake of com
parissn. Had this been done theacci.
dent could never have happened ex
cept by an extraordinary coincidence.
"The fact that Captain Watkin' q
career is over, says the Weekly,
twill of course make ether captains
more vigilant, but dependence upon
one mind IN this sort of thing is
absolutely unsafe. No man can tell
when his mental energies, usually
keen though they msy be, are going
to stop working for moment; and
that moment may be the most im'
portant in that minds history"

atoms, and only one side Of bis face
aud one foot could be found. Pieces
of clothing and shoes were recovered
among the debris, all of them being
in small fragments A 80 bill was
found uninjured, which evidently
came from one Of the dead mems
pockets.
Later investigation shows that the
ground foreman of the mine acci-
dentally exploded a cap while pre-.
pairing the fuse for blasting. He put
the cap into his mouth to orimp the
edges about the fuse. The cap ex
ploded and that set off FIVE J0-pound
boxes of dynamite, causing tie most
horrible disaster this mining district
has ever known.

/ am opposed to laws authorizing
it's issue by the banks. 1 am oppos-
ed to the destruction or retirement
OF the greenbacks.
/ do regard the trusts as nation
al menace, and I am IN favor of
making the trust question a national
issue. Corporations should not be
created recklessly, as heretofore,
and for those in being, as we'll as
those hereinafter formed, there
should be provided simple and eff
cient means Of supervision and
control, and for their prompt elimi-
nation whenever the public welfare
demands. A rational corrective for
the trust evil would be the placing
on the free list of everything which
enters materially into trust opera
tions. In the last congress the
democrats, silver republicans and
populists voted to embody this
policy into the Dingley tariff law,
but, OF course, the republicans voted
against the amendment and for the
trusts. With the high tariff hedge
for the shelter of trusts broken
down, legislation, helpful for their
overthrow, might be enacted upon
other lines
The race for the minority leader
ship for the next house Is an open
one, but Mr. DeArmond is clearly
in ths lead Alabama will support
John FL Bankhead, Arkansas
will put forward Thomas G McRes,
and Tennessee will present James
ID. Richardson. Texas will urge the
re election of Joseph W. Bailey il
he reconsiders his determination not
to lead again. Judge Richardson,
apparently, is Mr.. DeArmond's most
dangerous opponent, but, reading
between the lines, it seems probable
that the Missourian will be chosen
as the democratic spokesman on the
floor of the house.
A noticeable feature of the Herald
poll is that the democratic members
of congress who have associated il
the popular mind with the faction
opposed to free coinage are silent
upon the currency question, or very
cautious in recording their views
These men hope to promote party
harmony by subordinating differ
ences of opinion in the next presi
Dental election to the fight on the
trusts, which they believe should be
made the predominating issue in The
campaign.

"That is equal to about rs cents

those natives, although very stupid.

them extremely muscular. They are
big fellows, too. They are satisfied
with the control of Iloilo by the

getting pretty nearly double the
