he needed his clothes and did not have

seventy-fve cents, and he offered TO sell
for fifty. --e trade was soon made. The
brakeman had the fifty cents he received
from the pawn-broker and now he had

Eastern investors Who Want Wichita
Property.

As an indication of how closely some
eastern investors are watching Wichita
just now, P. V. Healey offers pleasing
evidence. When the Cudahy packing
company came here, some friends Of the
Cudahys in Illinois sent money out to Mr..
Healy and told him to invest It for them.
This he has done and they still keep send
ing sums for this purpose.
Since their original investments they
have been offereu several handsome ad-
vances but they are holding on. They
have made up their minds that the
growth here is to be prodigious and they
are not going to let good things get away
too soon.

Meanwhile the clerical force of the
Judge advocates department car

points may be gathered ready for the

ised Capt. Lemly that he will be ex

Capt. Lemly has probably had more

Prior to his assumption OF his du.
ties as judge advocate general of the
navy, in June, 1892. he was prom
inentIy identified with several OF the
most important trials and investiga-
tions in the recent annals of the
navy. AS Judge advocate and record
er of various courts he traversed
nearly all points of the world visited
by United States warships, going as
far a China and Japan in the prose-
cution of such work.
He was Judge advocate of the court.
martial convened in China as a re.
suit of the loss of the United States
steamship Ashuelot, and was also
Judge advocate in the court-martial
case of Paymaster Watkins. which
sat at Yokohama. He was also Judge
advocate in the court-martial cases
appointed for the trial Of ex-Surgeon
General Wales and ex-Paymaster
General Smith. Probably his most
important work of this kind. how
ever, was as Judge advocate of the
court of inquiry which investigated
the loss of the Jeanette in the Arc
tic. That investigation was con.
Quoted in Washington and was
marked by almost as much acrimony
and controversy as the pending

Naval officers in speaking of the
fairness of Secretary Long in select

sact that Admiral Kimberly was

cloakroom of the house of representa-
tives, but my father exercised the
veto power, and travelling was not as
easy then as it is nowadays.
"a man named Hitchcock was rais-
ing a company to go down and help the
Texans in their war. About that time
my kind-hearted old grandfather gave
me $500 to buy horse and buggy A
horse was the one thing had always
promised myself as soon as / should
be rich enough, so was delighted with
the gift, but when i heard Hitchcock
talk so eloquently about the wrongs
of the Texans and their noble struggle
for liberty l couldn't stand it; 1 sim
ply threw my grandfather's money
into his lap.
NATURALLY my grandmother began
to wonder pretty soon where my horse
was. ] told her that 1 was waiting to
get one that would trot in 2:40, which
was great speed for those days. Her
unsuspecting soul was satisfied with
the explanation. Next day my father
became inquisitive, and after I haC
made two or three stammering at
tempts to put him off had to come ou
with the whole story. l am not SURE
whether he was more angry or amused
over it.
'But the funny part of it came later
Another man arrived in town, one Col
Hunt, who was raising money to fur
nish supplies for the fighters in Texas
He came after my father, I came to hi
assistance, and between us we got th'
old gentlemen so interested that h,
handed out another $500 from his owl
pocket"
Gen. Sickles is so impressive in ap
pearance that people stare a goo
deal at his crutches (he lost leg a
lGettysburg), and not a few stranger
have had bad grace to stop him and in
lquire how he met with his supposed ac
cident. The general does not take thes
impertinences any too kindly, though
he usually avoids giving expression t
ais opinion of the qiestioner.

Of Mindanao. where the Moro tribe is
dominant, the United States will face
big revolt. He said:
.'Moros are Mohammedans and
polygamy is part of their religion.
Just as soon as preachers get to work
among them, preaching against plural
wives, the trouble will begin. They
are a fierce warlike tribe, who do not
know what surrender means. Like all
Moslems they are fanatical to the last
degree and win fight for their religion
the bitter end. They aie a stay-at-
home race and have mingled very lit
tie with other islanders.
'Spain never made any attempt to
govern them and thus avoided trouble.
AS long as we do not NEEDLE with their
affairs there is little danger of con-
aict. but any attempt to make them
conform to our standards of morality
or religion will provoke war There
are no fewer than 100000 Moros and
war with them would make the recent
trouble with the Filipinos look like
ehild's play"
