ssLITTLE RUSSIA" QUARREL
Cause of Trouble Must Stay in County
Jail

Topeka's Little Russia had an in
ming in the district court today. John
SPAIN, who some time ago was placed
under bonds to keep the peace. and was
afterwards surrendered by his bonds
men, was brought before Judge Hazen
to see whether or not the bond should
be continued.
SPAIN was employed in the Santa Fe
Shops and he is accused of assaulting
Jacob KOnraidi last October and after
wards making threats to kill him 1t
was for this that he was arrested and
required to give a peace bond, the bond
being signed by neighbor in North
Topeka
All went we'll after that until last
week, when SPAIN, it is alleged, got
into an alteration with his wife, and
Then his bOndsmen delivered him to
the authorities and withdrew from the
bond, and SPAIN has been in jail since.
A dozen Russians were in attendance
at the hearing today in court. The ma
jority of them could not understand
English, and the services of an inter-
prefer were necessary
Spahn's story of his alleged assault
on Konraidi is that the latter came to
his place not properly dressed while
SPAIN and his wife were sitting out in
the yard Konraidi according to
SPAIN, asked for something to drink,
and SPAIN said he had nothing, and he
ordered the intruder off the premises.
Konraidi refused to go and SPAIN put
him forcibly out Of the gate, tearing
his clothing.
SPAIN says his present troubles are
caused by his wife's family, who do
not wish to pay money they owe him.
He said that it was over this that he
and his wife had trouble, but he de-
MES that he treated his wife harshly.
He also says his mother-in-law has been
to him since he has been in Jail and has
offered to let his wife live with him
again if he will release the debt they
owe him He admitted, in answer to
questions by County Attorney Jetmore,
that he has been arrested FIVE or six
times for fighting his neighbors.
Judge Hazen decided to allow the
bond to stand, and SPAIN went back to

Senate Refused to Vote the Ex-
Queen a Pension.

Washington, March 10.-At the open
ing of today's session of the senate
Mr.. Allen (Neb.) offered a resolution di-
recting the committee on rules to re-
port to the senate why the secretary
of the senate had not for several years
reported at the beginning of each ses-
sion the number Of clerks, messengers
and other employees, together with their
salaries, in accordance with a provision
of the statutes.
Mr.. Allen said that the statement had
not been made for several years. An
agreement reached a number of years
ago by senators had been violated, and
the senate force had been rapidly in
creased until now the aggregate sal
aries amounted to $4,000.
The resolution was passed.
A resolution reported from the com
mittee on contingent expenses, author
izing the committee on relations with
Cuba to have a subcommittee visit
Cuba was objected to by Mr.. Cockrell
(Mo). He had noticed, he said, several
propositions to send committees and
subcommittee of congress on expedt-
lions to various places, and he now
wanted to enter his protests against
these junkets. The resolution went
over
Mr. Thurston CNeb) had passed a res
olutiOn calling upon the secretary of
the interior to inform the senate
whether any leases of lands in the
Wind river Indian reservation in Wyo-
ming had been made.
Mr.. Hale CNfe) then called up the
diplomatic and consular appropriation
bill. The measure carries 81, 765, 1853.
Among the more important amend
ments were the following:
Making the salary of the consul at La
Guayra, Venezuela, $1,000 instead Of
ST. 500; increasing the salary of the min
lister to Siam to 81, 600 from $4,000; pro-
viding third secretary for the United
States embassy to Mexico; increasing
the salary of the consul general at
Frankfort from SO, 900 to 81, 900.
Mr.. Hoar tMass.) offered an amend
ment providing that $4,000 to be paid
to LiliuokaIani, former queen of Ha
waiian islands and that $4,000 a year
hereafter be paid to her during her
natural life.
The amendment precipitated an ex-
tended and al times lively debate.
On motion of Mr.. Carter the amend
ment regarding LiliuokaIani was laid on
the table and the bill was then passed.
Eulogies were then pronounced on tire
late Senator-elect Hayward Of Ne
braska.

Don't argue about this question, or any
other but it is evidence that some of
the wisest men regard Worry as very
harmful.
IA. The barbarians were dishonest:
a successful raid was considered as suf-
fcient excuse for bad conduct. But civ
ilization has discovered that hcresty
is the best policy; that success is not
possible without it. If you hope to
avoid worry, y0u must therefore avoid
bad conduct
Is Every man thinks with horror of
being a burden in his old age. Every
member Of this club. therefore. will en-
deavor by means Of frugality. indus
try and as good sense as he can COM
mand, to provide for the inevitable
rainy days with which our lives end.
Much of the worry of the old is worry
over poverty that was unnecessary
16. The best members of this club
will be temperate; a few will drink
moderately, but always with the con-
seriousness that Il is a bad habit to be
closely watched. No man who has been
intoxicated can fail to worry over his
disgrace when sober. Intoxica ton is
one habit for which there is not a sin
gle excuse, and there is less charity for
excessive drinking now than ever be-
fore in the history of the world 1t is
always accepted as an evidence of
weakness
II. It is easy to join the Don't Wor-

an effort to aveid the folly Of worry.
You need not tell any one You pay nc
dues. You are the president OF the club,
and responsible for its success or fall

mind: to strengthen 1t: to do yourself
as much good as possible. You do not
write to other members saying you are

We trust that all readers of the
News are following the mining de-
velopments in Livingston and
Crittenden counties. Nothing of
greater Importance has occurred to
Kentucky since the war than the
discovery of zinc in these coun-
ties, and the starting up of the
iron furnace here. Both are fore
runners of trem endous industrial
development that will draw the
eyes of the country to this portion
of the state. In a year from to-
day Paducah will be talked about
as much as Birmingham was in
her boom days.-Paducah News.
Crittenden and Livingston coun
ties are very much gratifed to feel
that they are appreciated by the
metropolis of the Purchase, and it
is furthermore a source of pleas
ure to know that we possess the
material accomplishments t h a t
will add to the beauty and wealth
of the fair city, but we beg to in
form the News that Paducah is
not the "only pebble on the beach"
and that in a year Marion and Sa-
lem will be called for as often as

den and Livingston's prosperity,
they had better move up here

my husbands illness and death.
Yours sincerely,

The enormous campaign contri-
buttons are the cause of more un-
fairness and debauchery in cleo
tons than any election law that
has been or ever will be enacted.
We talk about the "battle of the
ballots but its the battle of the
dollars, and until this practice,
custom or habit is checked, most
any kind of old election law will
do, for it is not the will of the peo-
pie to be accurately registered, but
the pulling power of the dollar to
be tested.

The advanced sheet of the Fin.
ancial Review informs us that the
per capita of money in circulation
during May, 1900, was $26,7l, and
that the per capita in 1896 was
s2l, Is. This increase, if the figures
are right, with the advantages to
business it brings, clearly demon
strates that Mr.. Bryan's conten-
ton in 1896 that the per capita
was too small, was correct. If ne
were correct on that proposition,
which was so bitterly denied by
the gold standard advocates at that
time, why was he not correct in
his other contentious?
