PRESIDENT FAvORS
Eminent Jurist. Says Member Of
the Kansas Congressional Del
egation, and Burton's Plea
to Name his Successor is Ans
wered by aniExecutive Nit"

In an interview at Topeka Sat-
urday, a member Of the Kansas
Congressional delegation is quoted
as making the following statement
in regard to the reappointment OF
Judge Joseph A.. Gill to the federal
judgeship in the northern district:
President Mckinley long ago
made up HE mind to reappoint joe
Gill 10 the Indian territory judge
ship which he now holds. "Jos
Gill" /" said the Congressman, ''is
cousin OF the late Joe Smith, the
best friend Mckinley ever had.
Mr.. Smiths last request was that
Gill bs appointed to be a territorial
Judge. I know how the president
feels about IL, and speak advised
ly wben ! say that Gill will not be
disturbed in bis position.
"What il TO become Of George
J. Baker, OF Lawrence, who has
had bis eye 'Gill's job2" the re-
porter asked.
al am not Mr. Bakers keeper,
the congressman replied, "but !
can cay this: II be Is depending on
an appointment TO succeed Joe
Gill he will surely get left out in
the cold"
Judge Gill is the third Kansas
man Senator Burton has tried to
have removed from his pathway,
without success. His first failure
was in the case OF Fourth Assistant
Postmaster General Joe Bristow
who had made number OF trips 10
Kansas to help Lucien Barker.
Bristow is still on the payroll, and
il is announced that be will stay
there. Then came the fight on
Leland. After Burton had spent
his force the president told him
that Leland would be retained.
Now, according to the congressman
quoted, Burton's efforts to get rid
OF Gill have failed.

South McAlester, /. T., Aug. 81.
The sale OF town lots In the Kio-
wa and Comanche country seems
about TO be ecIipsed by the sale be-
ginning at South McAIester Sep
tember and lasting probably sew
eral weeks. There are nearly
4,O00 lots to be sold, and already
the city Is being crowded with
prospective purchasers. Every
train is bringing in people who are
anxious to buy lots in the town
that has become famous in the
south west for its coal m ines. there
being forty of them Immediately
surrounding the town, and produc-
ing the celebrated McAlester coal.
There have been many state
ments circulated to the effect that
the sale would be postponed. This,
however. il incorrect. as DIR. Ser

Instructions from the Secretary Of
the Interior advising him not to

any rate, is supposed to do SO. :
A bride should always wear q, blue

The wearing of the garter does not end
the ritual concerning it. After. the
wedding ceremony it is either cut into

finder is assured Of being happily mar

cut, it is divided among the brides

maid. and in Germany each bridesmaid

A story is told of an English clergy
man who owed his appointment to a
rich living to lucky pun. He was
tutor to the son of nobleman and
had not long taken orders when he
attended the funeral Of the rector of
the parish in which the. nobleman's
seat was situated.
The father of his pupil was patron of
the living and was also present at the
funeral Of the deceased rector. There
was young clergyman present also
whose grief was so demonstrative that
the noble patron was much affected by
the sight and asked If the young man
was son of the deceased gentleman.
"Oh, dear. no, my lord-no relation at

"No relationv' exclaimed the noble
man in surprised tone.

Is there really any connection be-

Ing by writing the Lords Prayer on a

Gray. Tom Moore. Leigh Hunt and Sir
Walter Scott all used running hands,
which were legible without any mark

said OF the writings Of Anthony Troll

Carlyle. on the other hand, Is said to
