CONVICTS MAY MARRY
No Sooner Free Than They Begin to
Hunt for Trouble.

Topeka, Aug. 23.-Two prison con-
victs, recently paroled by Governor
Stanley, have married, and third one
has written in for permission tomarry.
The two who have already married
are Charles =. Curtis, of Saline coun-
ty, and Charles A. Jackson, of Sedg-
wick county. Curtis got permission
to 90 to Missouri on short visit.
Upon his return he brought home a
bride. Jackson married the daughter
of one of Carrie Nations reformers
at Wichita.
The one who wants to get married is
Henry Johnson, now serving as II
porter in "A hotel at Minneapolis.
johnson says, in letter to the gov
ernor, that he wants to get married
powerful bad and beseeches the COVER
nor TO grant him permission. But he
will not get it.
The letter was sent to the attorney
general with request that he look up
the law on the question. ,His assist.
ants are now delving through the law
books. While they have not yet put
their opinions in writing, they have
reached the conclusion that such mar
riages are absolutely void and that
the young women who have taken the
paroled convicis "lor better or for
worse" have got the worst of it.
In Kansas marriage contract is
civil contract. Under the laws con-
Wet cannot make civil contract. a
prison sentence also gives complete
grounds for "A divorce. Now the ques-
tion arises for the first time whether a
paroled prisoner with his liberty, but
not his full rights restored, can legally
marry, or if his marriage, if it has
taken place, is void. The attorney
generals assistants are new inclined
to believe that such marriage is
void, but further research may force
them to change their minds.

THEY DEPORT CHINESE
Officers. Ridicule the Report That They
Let CeleStials ill.,

Tucson, Ariz., Aug. "A. United
States Collector of Customs William
Hoey and Chinese Inspector b f JOS
sey have not, up to this time, been ar
rested, as appeared in the press dis
patches from Washington, for con-
spring to allow Chinese to enter into
the United States from Mexico. Both
the collector and the inspector are alb
solutely without information from
Washington regarding their reported
arrest and express great surprise at
the dispatches. They ridicule the idea
of their being connected with any such
transactions, when the record of the
United States marshal's Office show
that they never had so many arrests
and deportations of Chinese for the
district as during the fiscal year.
The charges grow out of political
feeling and as far as the United
States authorities in the territory
know, are without foundation.

MINDS HER OWN AFFAIRS
Gems to be the Speciality of Mrs.
DeFOrest.

Irving, Kansas, Aug. pa modest
little cottage here is the home of Mrs.
Mary F. DeForest, small sprightly
widow of about sixty summers, who is
reported to have fallen heir to a for
tune of $4,000, 900, left her by her
uncle, Henry Dolan of Newly ork city.
Mrs. DeForest came to Irving about
twelve years ago, and lived with her
mother, her father having died some
time previous. Ten years ago her
mother died, since which time Mrs.
DeForest has lived in the old home all
alone, though sister, Mrs. Palmer,
lives in the same yard, and another
sister, Mrs. Stewart, lives in Irving.
She has two other sisters, Mrs. Cush-
ing, of Chicago, and Mrs. Coleman, of
Buffalo, N. Y.
Mrs. DeForest is a bright, energetic
business women, noted for "minding
her own business" " and refuses to talk
much for publication. She is very
highly esteemed here, and is a men,
ber of the Episcopal church. She was
engaged in newspaper work before
coming to Irving, and was employed
in the Globe Office at Atchison, Kansas,
for number of years. Since residing
here she has always lived comfortably
and contributed literally to every
worthy cause.
When seen today she was very busy
at work on rag carpet, and said
she must hurry to get it made"
Last April her aunt, Maria Dolan,
died, and by the terms of her.will some
$50, 600 were left to benefciaries out
side of the family, the balance to re-
vert to the family here on the death of
Henry Dolan.
1t is only a matter of conjecture as
to what she will do with her wealth,
but:it is safe to presume that her re-
latives here will be remembered lib
orally.

The Force in Manila Will be
Increased
NOT ENOUGH FOR EMERGENCY
City is Peaceful and no TrOu-
BILE in Sight
1900 Prisoners are Held and it is
Thought Best to Increase the
Force of Soldiers

Manila, Aug. Pin the city of
Manila there are now less than 900
effective soldiers, and it has been de-
cided to increase this number by four
companies OF infantry. The official
reason for the increase is that the
guard duty is too heavy for the pres
ent force. AS matter of fact, how
ever, there is a feeling that, although
there is no apparent prospect of
trouble, nevertheless in the event of
an uprising in the future, such as is
always possible, among the Malays it
would be better to have sufficient
body of troops available.
General Chaffee says he considers
the city of Manila to be perfectly
orderly and he can see no prospect of
an uprising Commissioner Wright
thinks the people extremely peace
able" He is satisfied that, although
among certain class there is some
discomfort on account of the land tax,
which is not yet understood, this class
class is not likely to foment trouble.
Many army officers say they are
gratifed at the increase in the military
force. They think that, with the
guard withdrawn from the
prison. another uprising there might
result in the release of about !, 800
prisoners. This possibility is re-
gar1ed as a menace to the city by
those who take that view of the case,
as they regard the white guard as
insufficient
Civil officials look upon this contin-
gency as unlikely, inasmuch as the
600 white police could mobilize at the
prison before any of the prisoners
could escape and become dispersed

MILITIA Is DISBANDED
Governor Dockery Goes After Pierce
City

Jefferson City, Mo-, Aug. %. Gov
ernor Dockery today issued requisi-
tion on the governor of Oklahoma for
the return of William Flavors, the
negro who is under arrest at Oklahoma
City charged with being implicated in
the murder of Miss Gazella Wild, at
Peirce City, Mo-, last Sunday. The
requisition was made by the governor
on the condition that the prisoner be
taken to Kansas City at once and be
confined in the Jail there.
Governor Dockery has ordered Ad-
iutant General w. Y. Cameron and
Brigadier General II. G. Clark to go
to Peirce City at once to protect the
property of the state The company
of the national guard at Peirce City
will be disbanded because of the atti-
tude of the members toward Mondays
lynching.
Governor Dockery is taking eNcep-
tion to the criticism which has been
passed on him in connection with the
Peirce City affair. He thinks that it
is due to him to say that he acted
promptly. He says that he at once
wired the mayor of Peirce City and
the sheriff Of Lawrence county to pro-
tect life and property at Peirce City,
and that he did this without being Of
ticially notified of the trouble there.
The governor received a letter from
the sheriff of Lawrence county today
giving full explanation of his action
and stating that he was unable to
check or control the mob with the aid
of his deputies.

THEIR AGENTS MAY ACT
Veterans Need Not Appear to Make
Their Filing.

Guthrie, Ok, Aug. 2.-There has
been some doubt among old soldiers
as to whether their authorized agents
could appear at their respective land
office in the new country and make
their .declaratory statement and file
their entry. Many old soldiers thought
that they must appear in person at the
land office f. c. Sickles, register of
the Eel Reno land Office, said today
thon an old soldier could be repre-
sented by his entry which relieves the

A DELUGE In GEORGIA.
In Atlanta Nearly Four Inches of
Water Fell.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 23.-Atlanta and
nearly all of North Georgia has been
deluged with rain the past two days.
In Atlanta alone the rainfall in the
twenty-four hours ending at 7 O'Clock
tonight, was 1856. In this. city the
traffic on one or two railway lines was
suspended by washouts in the suburbs.
Considerable damage was done by the
flooding of excavations in great
many places where building opera
tions will be delayed some time.
Near Marietta the rainfall was the
heaviest in years. All trains on the
Atlanta, Knoxville g. Northern rail-
road which has it's southern terminus
at Marietta, were abandoned on ac-
count of washouts and loss of bridges.
The Atlanta & Knoxville railway and
the county bridges at Elijay, Georgia,
were swept away during the afternoon.
At Canton, the funeral of Hon.
Thomas Hutcheson was postponed,
the streets being impossible on ac-
count of the rain.
Warnings were sent out by the local
weather bureau to West Point, Colum-
bus and Eufaula, Alabama, that there
is danger of a sudden rise in the
Chattahoochie.
The Constitution tomorrow will
say: The continuous wet weather has
been the cause of considerable alarm
concerning the cotton crop. II. r.
Wright, of the state department of
says: "The precipitation
has been so heavy for the past few
days as to cause anxiety if not alarm
as to the future prospects of the cot
ton crop. We don't think it has as
yet been seriously damaged, but should
the rains continue great damage will
ensue.
"No portion of the state is expected
to be exempt from heavy loss"

Star tin plate works was attended by
great excitement, but no disorder.
When the train reached Union station
IT was met by Police Captain John +.
Cramer and a squad of twenty-five
men who surrounded the new workmen
and marched to the mill. Outside the
station the strikers, to the number of
several hundred were in waiting. They
fell in behind and several times at
tempted to talk to the men, but the
policemen kept the strikers upon the
outside of the pavement and they had
no opportunity to domissionary work.
When the works were reached the nom
unionists quickly filed through the
gates which were quickly closed, leav-
ing the strikers upon the outside. The
violent acts anticipated did not ma
terialize. Not hiss or ieer was
heard from the time the police pro-
tected party got out of the Union sta
tion until the mill was reached, and
not loud word was heard from the
strikers, even as they watched the nom
union men cross the mill yard
to the place where the cots
were lying ready to receive the new
workmen. The non-unionists had evil
IDENTIFY expected a different reception
for their alarm was evident in their
faces.
AS soon as the men were safely in
side the police requested the strikers
to leave and they dispersed at once.
The policemen were then released and
only the regular watchmen were left
on guard. All is now quiet and no
trouble is apprehended.
Previous to the arrival of the East
ern men, fifteen men entered the works.
They were not molested. The company
had a number of men in the works |
since Monday and they now have
about 100 men in the place. Two
rollers, one from Homestead and an
other from the South side, are in the |
plant ready to go to work. Active

HE WILL COLLECT
Auditor Cole is Going After the Gey
prnmpnt

tGIIHpnU
Topeka, Aug. %. G. f.. Cole, the
auditor of state, will undertake to col
lect a million or more dollars the
government owes the state of Kansas
on account of the Quantrell raid
claims. Since 1887 the state legisla-
ture has been making appropriation
from time to time to pay these claims
with the understanding and expecta-
tion that the general government will
refund.
Last winter the Legislature made the
final appropriation. The many state
agents the state has had having failed
to collect, Auditor Cole thinks the
time has now come for settlement
He will take his vacation and there
after begin work He will enlist the
aid of the Kansas delegation in Con-
gress, OF course, and he believes that
by pushing the matter he will succeed
in single session of Congress. 1t is
Mr.. Coles plan TO make the collection
without the Intervention of 'state
agent" and so save the state the ex-
pense OF commission. After Sep
tember |, the state will:.be without a
state agent by the resignation of w.
w. Martin, who will become treasurer
of the National Military home at
Leavenworth, and Governor Stanley,
it is said, will not appoint a new one.
Mr.. Cole collected the Spanish war
claims without the help of the state
agent and he is satisfied that if Con-
gress intends to pay the Quantrell raid
claims he can, if the congressional
delegation will aid him, collect that
debt, too.
