KANSAS.

Topeka, kas., April 4.-The NUM-
cipal elections i'll Kansas this wear
have been of much more than the
usual interest. Mrs. Nations crusade
and the subsequent widespread re-
vival of interest in the enforcement
of prohibition combined to make the
city elections the battlefields upon
which, in a large measure, would de-
pend the ultimate fate of the prohib-
itory law. The results of the various
elections over the state, Tuesday,
serve to show hat the ~prohibitory
sentiment is still in the ascendancy.
In Atchison and Leavenworth the tenn
perance issue was not brought up,
city improvements and other ques-
ions taking the precedence. In Wich-
tia the temperance people made a
fight for supremacy, but polled only
about is per cent. Of the vote. Nu-
merous cities went straight republi-
can In nearly every case the republi-
can candidates were law-enforcement
people, and their election can there
fore be counted a victory for that
element.
Albert Parker, democrat. was elect
ed mayor of Topeka over Hughes, re-
publican. by the smaa majority of IL
votes. The vote was so close on may
or hat the result was in doubt until
the final count vas received Wednes-
day morning. The republican elected
the balance of the ticket with the
exception of one council man.
At Kansas City, Kas, VIM. III. Grad
dock, democrat, was elected mayor
by a plurality of 1858 ove B. L. Short,
republican. This is the first time the
democrats IA elected the head of
the ticket in Kansas City, Kas., since
1856. The complete vote: Craddock.
democrat, 1862; Short. republican, S.
669; Hughes, independent, 500; Benz
son, socialist, TIA.
The republicans elected city clerk,
treasurer, attorney, one district judge,
one county clerk, one constable and
two councilmen. The democrats elect
ed, besides mayor, four councilmen,
one judge, n court clerk and one
constable.
The principal issue was corporation
ownership. Women cast over five
thousand of the 13,4OO votes polled.

ILLINOIS.

Chicago, April 4.-Carter II. Harri-
son has been elected mayor of Chica-
go for the third time and will next
week his third term as the
chief executive of the city. His Off
cial plurality over Judge Elbridge
Hanecy, the republican nominee, is in
the neighborhood of assoc votes.
The total vote of the city, with a
few precincts to hear from, is: Harri-
son., 155,275: Hanecy, 127,2O2; Harri-
sons plurality. 2s,073.
Out of the 81 wards of the city,
Harrison carried sc and Hanecy nine.
The vote was badly split, some of the
strongest republican parts of the city
giving only n small plurality for the
party nominee, Ut some of them go
ing for Harrison, who. however, suf-
fered in some of the democratic
strongholds.
The new city council, which prob
ably will be called upon to decide the
question of the extension of the street
railway franchises and other public
grants worth many millions, is repub-
1ican by a majority of ten votes. AS
a result of Tuesdays election the
council will be made up of 80 repub-
lcans, % democrats, ? independent re-
publicans and ? independent demo-
Gratis. This makes a total of ~. or
two more than are provided for by
law, the tangle being caused by the
recent ward redistricting and the con-
sequent shifting of two holdover al
dermen in the Second and Twenty
first wards. The new council and the
courts will be called upon to decide
the problem.
According to leaders of both par
ties, the council probably will be or
ganized on non-partisan lines. This
will be in accordance with the policy
of Mayor Harrison and of the NUM-
cipal Voters league, a n~on-partisan
organization which has been prom
inent ia recent local compaigns.

Walter Chesser attended the masquerade ball Saturday night in a bathing suit. While return ing home, in passing the compa- ny's works, some one turned the hose on him. It was pretty cold, but Walter is something of a hu- morist himself, and appreciated the joke. In passing through the railroad cut from the cOmpa- ny's store to Chase Creek some miscreant chunkad him with rocks, from which he was laid up for a day or two. Walter says that the next masked ball he attends he will disguise him. self as a cowboy and will carry a couple of sure-enough guns, and after twelve o'clock he will take a shot at every man on the street,-CliftOn Copper Era.

TEE TERRITORIAL PRISON.

The legislature has made an
 appropriation for tEe improve
 ment of the territorial prison. The sum is large enough to sup
 ply all of the additional room ne cessary. It is large enough to add broom factory, a willow
 ware factory and shoe factory. Broomcorn and willows can be
 raised in abundance on the pris-
 on farm at no cost to the terri
 tory. WilloW-ware and furni-
 ture can be manufactured for the people of the territory. It is
 the most acceptable kind of fur
 niture for warm climate. The
 entire consumption of brooms
 of the territory can be supplied by prison labor. The Colorado
 river bottom supplies annually  thousands of tons of wild hemp, from which the best rope, tWine and bagging material can be
 manufactured. The cost of in-
 stalling the machinery necessary for these respective industries
 will be comparatively small in comparison with the profit that will result from them. The prison farm can be utilized to produce at least thirty per cent. of the food consumed by the convicts. All this can be accom- plished by prison labor at little
 or no cost to the territory, and at the same time over two hun
 dred convicts' time can be con-
 verted into wealth. Equally good will be the refOrmatory effects upon the cOnvicts, for there can never be reform where idleness reigns. likeness is the devils workshop. It is the home
 of every vice, especially so in prison life. There is no civiliza- ton without labor. Foil is the
 handspring of all civilizing and
 reformatory infiuence.-Star.

The Southern Pacific railroad is abreast of the times with elec- tric headlights for it's engines. By merely touching button the engineer sets the light into play. Each light is of 2,O00 candle power. 1t lights the track half a mile ahead of the engine. Any thing on the track can be seen sixteen telegraph poles ahead, far enough away so that the train could be brought to a halt before it reached the object, even under full speed. The engines are be- ing provided with the apparatus as fast as it can be supplied.

Congress has recently author ized the coining of a new three cent piece to take the place of the old three-cent piece, which so resembled the silver dime. The new coin is to be made of nickel, and will resemble the one cent bronze pieces now in use. with the exception that the new coin will be thicker and will have a hole in the center, similar to Chinese coins, a quarter of an inch in diameter.

There is a time, says an ex~ change, in almost every young mans life when Ee imagines he is really a warm number. When he grows older, and by experi- ence he accumulates a store of good, common, horse sense, he views the same class of boys with disgust.

We have TO sympathy for the poor, miserable, homeless sinner who might reach forth his hand and secure a home of 160 acres of rich, productive land, but who will not, simply because it is sit uated in Arizona. When these lands begin to bloom as the rose and send in their wealth of early fruits and other products, many a man will regret his oyer fas tidiousness in the choice of loca ton. The idea that Arizona is a barren waste is daily being ex ploded, and before many years Southern Arizona will be looked upon as one of the very choicest regions of the Pacific coast.

BLAZE AT JOPLIN.

Joplin was the scene of raging
fire Sunday evening that resulted
in half black of buildings being
destroyed. The fire originated in
the rear of the livery barn owned by
Frank Holcroft & Co., just east of
the keystone hotel, at 6 o'clock. The
alarm was at once turned in, but
before the fire department reached
the scene almost the entire barn
was a mass of flames. An unusual
amount of time was spent in max
ing the first connection.
Before the fire department reached
the scene the citizens had car
ried the household goods from
most every house in the block
and scattered them promiscuously
about in the streets. Many We.
hicles were rescued from the burn
ing barn, but the flames gained
such rapid headway that the men
were soon forced to give up the
work. When the fire started there
were So horses in the barn and a
large number of them perished. 1t
is thought that between 70 and 30
were burned to death. Several tons
of hay were also destroyed.
Frank Holcroft's residence, just
south of the barn was destroyed as
wac also the residence of I. N. Dem
mis-.
For a time 1t seemed the entire
block would be destroyed but with
five or six streams of water playing
on the burning building, the fire
was soon under control. The out.
buildings along both sides of the
alley were destroyed.
The east end of the Keystone ho-
tel was slightly damaged and the
building occupied as a sample
room was also damaged. The loss
will amount to nearly $4,000, partly
covered by insurance.

A DEADLY c0NTRIvANcE.

The next man who tries to break
into Morrow's drug store will get a
practical hint of how murderers
are electrocuted in Sing Sing. Mr..
Morrow has had every door, win
dow and opening to his store neat
ly wired and wires connected with
the big dynamo of the electric
light plant, so that any person
coming in contact with one of the
wires will meet with instant death.
Since 80 many sneak thieves have
been run in we doubt If there will
be any more petty robberies, but
we do not blame Mr.. Morrow for
protecting himself against an ele-
ment which has persistently rob-
bed him, month after month, in
such a dastardly manner.
As an additional precaution Man.
ager Dow of the Telephone Com
pany, has installed a battery in the
rear of the building by which any
disturbance of the wires alarms the
central Office locating an attempted
robbery Immediately.
These sneak thieves must be got
rid of, and If it is necessary to elec.
trocute a few of them we are sure
no one will complain. 1t is under
stood the city council has ordered
the immediate enforcement of the
vagrant act and those persons who
have no visible means of support
outside of bootlegging and robbing
hen roosts had better dig out.
