POINTED PARAeRApHs.

LFrom the Chicago News.1
A woman's wants are often the cause
of a mans woes.
Beauty is but skin deep-but that's as
deep as the coquette.
A ripe apple and a green pair stirred
up a world of trouble.
The hooking bird isn't a parrot, but
the parrot is hooking bird.
The farmers favorite is the field
and he seldom plays short horses.
A lawyer can afford to dress well If
he has plenty of lawsuits on hand.
The meaner the man the more unwil-
ling he is to assume a small obligation.
The older a man gets the less he pro
fesses to understand the nature of wo-
men.
The man with a pain in his back and
another in his stomach isn't neces-
sarily transparent.
Nothing on earth can take the bitter
ness out of life and break the spell of
loneliness like baby.
The coquette is interested more in
the attentions denied her than in the
attentions bestowed upon her.
Lots of amateur actors are stage
struck, and probably a lot of profess

SANTA FE AT WORK.
To Raise Quarantine Between Kansas
and Oklahoma

Oklahoma City. Okla, Jan. 22.-Chief
Surgeon ]. P. Raster, of the Santa Fe
system, arrived here Saturday night
from Topeka, to make a determined eff
fort to raise the quarantine declared by
the Kansas board of health against Ok
lahoma.
DR.. Raster was in consultation with
the Guthrie board of health yesterday,
and with the Oklahoma City board last
night. He has arranged to take the
members of the territorial board of
health on a special train to points along
the Santa Fe, secure a correct state
ment of the situation at each point,
then proceed at once to Topeka and lay
his evidence before the Kansas board.
DR.. Raster hopes to have the quaran-
tine raised at once and thereby prevent
a serious blow to commerce between
Oklahoma and Kansas. Strict quaran-
tine was declared today and the news
has created intense excitement here.

Foreclosed on Be Mig.

Washington, Jan. pa decision was
rendered in the United States supreme
court IN the case of Harry w. Dicker-
man vs. the Northern Trust Co. This
was a bill in equity filed in the circuit
court for the northern district of Illi-
nois by the trust company against the
Columbia Straw Paper Company to
foreclose a trust deed of thirty-nine
paper mill properties located in nine
different states. The court of appeals
for the seventh circuit issued a decree
allowing the foreclosure and sale, and
this decree was affirmed by to-day
opinion, which was handed down by
Justice Brown.

The early history of Texas appears
to be in a fair way of being repeated
in the state of Sonora, Mexico. The
Yaqui Indians, who compose the bulk
of the population, have rebelled, and set
up a government of their own. So far
the national government has made lit
tie progress toward the suppression of
the rebellion. If it should be compelled
finally to acknowledge the indepen-
dence of Sonora. which seems not at
all improbable, the most natural thing
in the world would be for the new state
to solicit annexation to this country
just as Texas did before her.

st. Louis might well stop and think
before pursuing further her fight
against the Chicago drainage canal. If
the big ditch shall become a great thor
oughfare for ocean steamers, which ap-
pears not only possible but probable. no
point along it's route from New Or
leans to Chicago is likely to derive
greater benefit therefrom than St.
Louis. There will naturally center the
export grain trade of the great west.

The Kansas Mutual.

The fine statement of this big Kansas
institution speaks for itself on the
fourth page of this paper. The excess
of income over disbursements for 1899
was nearly $4,000; the gain in assets
over $3.50 and the increase in insur-
ance over 100000. The Kansas Mu-
tual is to be congratulated.

BACK TO HORSE CARS.
Electric Railway Plant Burned at
Munc Gle, Ind.

Muncie Ind. Jan 22.-Fire to-day de-
stroyed the power house, shops, barns
and offices of the electric street railway
system, entailing a loss of $4,000. Six
teen cars were consumed and the en-
gines and the dynamos were burned.
The system is tied up because of the
fire and horse cars will be utilized tenn
porarily.
A line will probably be strung from
Anderson, Ind, to furnish power until
a new plant is erected. The loss is
covered by insurance.
