NO FUSION FOR THEM.
Two Populist Candidates Refuse
Democratic Support.

j. H. Patton and j. H. Taylor have
handed their withdrawal as candidates
for county high school trustees from
the Democratic ticket to the secretary
in substance as follows:
u hereby withdraw my name from
the Democratic ticket and will not
accept your endorsement
ID. H. PATTON"
"My name was placed before the
Democratic convention without con-
sultation or consent. | therefore beg
leave to withdraw same at once.
~. II. TAYLOR.'
They do not propose to have any
Democratic claims on them and their
sentiment is that of large portion Of
the Populist party. 1t is probable
that other of the fusion candidates
will not accept Democratic endorse
ment,

TOO BIG A JOB.
Abilenes Were 0utclassed by Mr..
Manning's Aggregation.


Abilene undertook agood deal more
than it could manage when it at
tempted to play Manning's Blues
Thursday afternoon. The Abilene
park had crowd Of nearly one
thousand, visitors from dozen towns
Of central Kansas swelling the large
local attendance. The home team
secured Reust and Bouldin for pitch
ers and Price for center but the Abb
lene's had a bad case OF stage fright
and piled up fumbles and errors un-
til their friends lost hope. Reust
threw an easy ball and was pounded
freely much to Abilene's disappoint.
ment. In the 9TH Bouldin took his
place and Fingered up the home team
SO that it scored 2 in the 9th.
Stricklett was in the box for the Blues
and threw magnificent ball. The Wis
itors received generous applause from
Abilene's rooters for their successes.
Mr.. Manning's Blues may be away
at the bottom Of the Western League
list but they gave Abilene touch of
high life and the home team felt like
bunch of colonial danes playing
bean bag in weedy lot back of the
orphan asylum. The very appear
ance of the Blues scared the liver and
lights out of most of the team and
easy flies that ought to have been
sponge cake were fielded like a one
legged man with st. Vitus dance try.
ing to give cake walk. Miller on
second would probably have had
hard work to pick up ball if it were
handed to him on platter with water
cress around it and trained nurse
could have improved on the right field
er. Strother and Matteson kept their
heads and Bouldin was all right when
he got in but Strcklett worried the
whole list and only six hits were Sc
cured off his delivery.
1t is generally conceded that Abb
lene played about its poorest game of
the season. Had the boys not be-
come ratified in the first inning and
failed to recover their grip they would
have given the Blues a close chase.
The Blues did not steal bases they
simply walked out and committed
open larceny while the Abilenes, dazed
with wonder at their audacity, looked
on and hung to the ball.,
The Abilene rooters did their part
but it was Of no use and not until the
ninth did Abilene get past third. 1t
was not necessary for the Blues to
stay over for second game.

MULE DENTISTRY.
An Expert Dentist who Operate. ON
Twenty-Four of the AMI
mnlx Every Day.

A Mexican mining company which
owns 300 mules keeps dentist on irs
staff simply to look after the mules,
teeth.
One of Mr.. Mules amiable weakness
es is the habit of boiling his food,
which frequently causes dyspepsia or
other diseases. This boiling of his food
is not caused by a desire to hasten his
meal, but because his mclars, or back
teeth, having more work to perform
than his front teeth, wear away in the
course of few years and become
much shorter than the front ones, thus
allowing the food to pass into the stom-
ach without being properly masticated.
In cases of this kind the incisors, or
front teeth. have to be filed down an
eighth or quarter of an inch
The molars OF mule are az inches
in length, while the incisors measure
sA inches, and judging from his signs
Ct pain, the nerves are as sensitive as
those of human beings. An expert
dentist operates on "a mules day.
The extracting instruments are from
two to three feet in length, and the
entire case of instruments weighs
fully so pounds. The teeth of every,
mine mule are examined and treated,
it necessary, once or twice year.

A D1M1NuT1vE REVOLVER.
1t Is Only One Inch and a Half Long
Yet 1t Shoots With Great
Accuracy.

Perhaps the smallest revolver ever
known has been discovered in Germany.
1t is 1Ainches long and is made OF
steel, gold-plated. The handle is made
of pearl The hammer and trigger
work exactly as in regular revolver,
and the cylinder holds seven cartridges.
Each cartridge is so small that to load
the revolver a rammer and pair OF
pincers are used. These are attached to
the handle by ring. The cartridge is.
picked up with the pincers, inserted in
to the chamber and rammed into place.
The cartridges are charged with full
mipite, and the bali is about the size
of a No. s shot. When the trigger is
pulled and the hammer strikes the car
fridge there is an explosion about as
loud as when a gun cap is snapped.
This little revolver shoots accurate
ly, but it is so small that one cannot
handle it so that it may be aimed ex-
actly. The ball has force enough to go
through a heavy cardboard. The hole
where it enters is very small, but it has
tearing capacity when it comes out.
The revolver was bought by Mr.. c. j.
Schneider, who tested its shooting
powers in his Office one day. He placed
a card on his desk and fired. There
was little scream from the stenog-
rapher on the other side of the room,
who was rubbing her neck and insisted
that something had stung her. The
ball had gone through the cardboard,
struck the lock of the desk, glanced off
across the room and hit the young
