An Unfortunate Misrepresentation.

a story of Lord Russell of Halloween,
as told by himself, shows how risky a
thing it may be, after all, for prisoner
to speak in his own defense. One such,
who seemed to be really making out his
innocence, the lord chief justice. who
had missed n mumbled word, interrupt
ed with the question, what did you
say-What was your last sentence?"
''Three months, my lord" said the
crestfallen prisoner pleader. 1t is hard
ly necessary to add that the lord chief
justice forgot the admission or remem-
bered it only in the prisoners favor
when that particular sentence had to be
passed. -London Academy.

An Atchison View of Emporia

Whenever a sohoolteacher is needed
in any part of the state of Kansas
word is sent to Emporia, and the next
train pulling out of that town carries n
schoolteacher. with her notebooks, die
tionaries, etc., in a bag at her side.
Don't they raise anything else but
schoolteaohers in Emporia? Did any
man ever go to that town and get q
bride?
Old Bill White must have lots of
nerve to run paper in a town with SO
many schoolteachers to watch his gram

~ tl0n of q Cuban Militia.

q Washington, Aug. IL. - Gen. Carlos
Garcia, of Cuba, was engaged Friday in
the presentation to army officials of
plans for the organization of q Cuban
militia. He had long conference dur
ing the forenoon with Gen. Miles. The
plan presented by Gen. Garcia is to or
ganize several regiments from among
the soldiers who fought for Cuban in
dependence into a force which shall
constitute a national guard and at the
same time perform duties similar to
those of the gendarmery of European
countries. He thinks the force could
be utilized to maintain order and to re-
lieve many of the American soldiers
now employed there. It could be
classed as part of the auxiliary force
authorized by the last session of con-
gress, but the intention was that
it should be Differed by Cubans and
paid out of the Cuban revenues.
