goMEsEEKERs PAIRING WELL.


Ell Reno, Ok, July 16.-An records
we're broken here yesterday by the
registra ton clerks under Gov. Richs
ards, when 1O,967 people were given
papers emitting them to number in
the great drawing which will begin
on July 20. This makes a total regis
tration of 31,015 at Ell Reno. At
Lawton there were $500 persons
registered in the four days ending
Saturday evening.
Homeseekers from different towns
are arriving in companies equipped
fer every emergency. They bring
boxes filed with fried chicken, boiled
hams, biscuits, pies and pickles.
cooked at home. It is impossible to
get drinking water on the trains and
passengers supply themselves with
jugs ard beer bottles filled with
water. There is now an abundance
of water here, barrels are kept filled
in the streets, beds can be found for
everybody and no man need 60 hun
cry.
The most surprising thing at Ell
Reno is the absence of fighting and
boisterous drunkenness. There has
not been a disturbance sufficient to
attract attention since registration
began. Drunkenness is at minimum.

MOB AT THE JAIL.
Two Thousand Excited Citizens Of Kansas
City Wanted to Lynch the Negroes
Charged with Ravishing.

Kansas City, Mo-, July ia mad
dened mob of 1000 men and boys
surged around the county Jail here
between midnight and one o'clock
this morning. They swore and shout
ed, discharged pistols and chased ne
groes and called loudly for the blood
of "Bullhead" Holland and Roberts,
the two negroes suspected of COM
plicity in the assault on Miss Davis
end Vernon Newton Wednesday. Bull
let's were fired promiscuously in the
crowd, half a dozen or more persons
were injured, many arrests were made
for disorderly conduct and carrying
concealed weapons, and that lynch
ing was not done or at least a deter.
mined attempt made at one was due
only to the fact that the mob was
without a leader. Gov. Dockery has
offered a reward Of $500 each for the
assailants of Miss Davis.

Nebraska People Condemn Gov. Savage for
Releasing Ex-State Treasurer Who
Embezzled Nearly 100000.

Omaha, Neb., July 16.-The release
on parole from the state penitentiary
at Lincoln of Joseph S. BARLEY, the
defaulting state treasurer, reopened
the bitter fight which marked the tri-
al and is denounced as ,unwarranted
by the great mass of citizens who re-
joiced at the conviction of the former
official. Already those who took sides
in the feud which was a feature Of
the faJ1ous case are lining up for
a rentval of the struggle Nearly
$501SO9 was lost to the state during
Bartley's term as treasurer and it is
limited that the convict has agreed
to tell what became of all this mon.
ey as condition of his release. While
friends of the prisoner uphold the
action of Gov. Savage, the majority
of taxpayers fail to find excuse for
fberating after four years a man they
deem entitled to serve every day of
his 20 years sentence.

parts of the state since April II, and
crops of all kinds. except wheat, are
almost failures. Gov. Dockery has re-
ceived many requests to issue a proc

with Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
regarding the drought. cit is my be-
lief" said Mr.. Colman, chat the re-
ports from the corn belt have not
been exaggerated. I am firmly of the
belief that to the farmers of Missouri
this drought is greater calamity,
financially, than was the civil war"

A TARGET FOR FILIPINOs.
Cebu, Capital of . Large island, Il Ere
quently Fired Upon by "Unrec0n-

Manila, July 13.-Cebu, capita, of the
island of that name, is still frequent-
ly fired upon by the insurgents. Gen.
Hughes, in command of the Visayas
island, reports progress in the task
of penetrating the island of Samar
and scattering the insurgents.
A report reaches here from an nm.
official source that the Filipino crew
of the steamship Belgika mutinied

ing the administration of Gen. Otis
the Belgika was seized and her owners
heavily fined for illegal trading.
Advices from noilo state that II
murderers broke out of the fortress
there recently. The guards killed two
of them, but the others crossed the
channel in binding storm and
reached the island of Guioaras.

Kansas City, No.. July 16.-The
state board of railroad commission
ers met at the Coates house Monday
to hear protests from the shippers
and people of Kansas City against the
proposed consolidation of the Mem

most remarkable feature of the meet.

Topeka, Kan, July 13.-All records
for heat in the "a years observations
kept by Chancellor Snow, of the Uni
versi.y of Kansas, were broken yes
terday, the mercury reaching maxi
mum average for the state of 1858
degrees. In Fort Scott the mercury
registered 40 degrees. The heat was
accompanied by a very light breeze
from the south which came as breaths
from n red-hot furnace, blasting and
whitening vegetation of all kinds.
Opinions and reports differ as to
the extent of the damage to corn.
Secretary Coburn, of the state board
of agriculture, recognized author
ity, admits that the crop is prac-
tically failure.
While corn has failed, alfalfa has
given an abundant yield. The condi-
alfalfa, and it has established its
reputation as a dry weather product.
Wheat is nearly all in the stack.
In many cases it has been harvested
only to be burned. AS many as 10000
acres of wheat in the stack have been
burned during the last two weeks.
The fires start from the slightest
causes. so intensely dry is everything,
and when they are once started there
is no water on hand with which to
fight them.
Kansas is stricken with drought
worse than any since 1860. Queerly
enough, the usual order of things has
been reversed this time, and the
western part of the state, or "short
grass" country, is in much more
favorable condition than the hitherto
favored eastern part.
Kansas City, Mo-, July 12.-Anothcr

was made in Kansas City yesterday.
Between five and six o'clock in the
afternoon the mercury rose to 1922
degrees above zero. Reports from
surrounding cities showed the temper

There is said to be little left of the

are that the higher education units

his attitude on the question of edu-
cation of women, he said: ."Do not

man fully as broad and as worthy of
cultivation of the highest kind as

more in touch with the human race

species. is becoming stronger and
more numerous, forcing man to the
puny, Insignificant animal that is seen
in lower species in the male, but the
woman of higher education, as it is
given at present, will not become the
mother of the future race
Other educators were unwilling to
accept either the statement that man
is to become as Insignificant compared
to woman as some male butterflies,
or that higher education is injurious
to woman. The discussion resolved it.

the east and west. Eastern men were
more in favor of separating boys and
