leon once gave an order to the
pickcts stationed at the outpoSts Of

pass them. The long, dark hours
Of the night wore slowly away,
and The faithful scntinels kept close
watch for the appearance Of an en-

large dog was seen approaching
one Of thcr:9uard%.
The animal was ordered back :.
but with every demonstration Of
affection he persisted in passing
the forbidden boundary, True
to his trust, the soldier raised his
gun and fired and the poor crca-
turc fell dead.
The report of the shot echoed
along the lines, and the camp was
awake in an instant 20 meet the
impending danger. But when it
was found TO be only Il dog, and

Weir City, Kan, Sept. Goal miners,
city and vicinity are DESERVING Bryan
ism in squads. companies and platoons.
Four years ago this was the hotbed of
mo-populism 1t was weil-nigh
unanimous for Bryan here. Republi-
can orators could not find listeners and
it was worth about mans existence to
talk for Mckinley. This. is a mining
community. The miners in 1896 believed
that the only way prosperity could
come to them was thru 16 to /. They
had merely existed during the four
years of Clevelanas administration.
Their living during that period was in
deed scant. They wanted change.
Bryan promised ii to them and they
supported him. He wasn't elected pres
ident. Mckinley Mas, and has given
them prosperity. They have had full
dinner pals ever since. Their children
have not cried on account of hunger.
There have been no strikes on account
of reductions Of wages. The only
strikes have been for an increase. Un-
der the Cleveland regime the strikes
We're against reductions and the min-
ers lost every time. They are now more
steadily employed than ever before In
the history of the mining industry of
this section and they are getting better
wages. This is why they are now
changing from Bryan TO MclSinley;
this is why Cherokee county, once the

MILLIONS FOR SHIPS.

New York Central Will Make Enor-3
nous Expenditures for ships and
Tracks.
New York, Sept. 1.-The construction
of a fleet of large ocean steamers for
carrying both freight and passengers
by the New York Central railroad has
been under discussion of late.
This Improvement has been projected
in connection with the Improvements
of the terminal at WeehaWken and the.
expenditure OF between 33,000,000 and
s4,oo0Gu9 in charging the yards there.
building new piers and tracks and a
general increase ot freight capacity.
Some time ago the New York Central
increased its capital scock By sl5,D0O, 900
and this money has been spent In buy
ing new rolling siock A prominent
railway official says that even this
enormous expenditure for equipment
has been Insufficient and another ST.
100000 MIL ROW have to be added to ii.
for engines. The road has not enough
cars and engines to handle the enor-
nous traffic offered.
The decision 10 expend between So
100000 and s4,o00.o00 on the Weehawken
terminal is only one item of the extra
ordinary expenditures. Other millions
have been spent in bridges, structural
steel, improved grades and tracks and
stations.
IT is this increase in traffic capacity
and the decision TO reconstruct the
Weehawken terminal that has suggest
ed the building Of line of steamers for
|inter-oceanic freight and passenger
traffic. The increasing demand for
American coal in European markets. 1t
is believed, may have some bearing on
the project.
