PROMISE MADE
BY Senator Hanna to Secure a Husband Tor
a Lady NeWs-WrlteT.


There was a promise made by SEN
ator Mark A. Hanna before the reelec.
tion of President Mckinley that has
never been fulfilled.
The person to whom the promise
was made has never asked for its full
fillment, though the conditions under
which it was made have come about
and the witness to the agreemtnt was
no less person than President McKin-
ley.
That Senator Hanan is able to fulfill
the promise there is no doubt for Ohio
abounds in rich young men, and the
young woman in question has a
straight back-for Mr.. Thackeray said
that any woman with intelligence, who
wasn't hunchback. could marry if
she wanted.
The promise was made under happy
conditions. 1t was at Canton, Ohio, at
the house of President Mckinley, when
the air was filled with warm autumn
sunshine and affairs politically were
going merrily and well, and the Presi.
dent and Senator Hanna were taking an
hour of ease.
A young woman journalist, who rep
resented an Eastern paper, was in Can
ton telegraphing her daily STORY" to
her paper. She was leaving that after
noon for the East, and had been sitting
with Mrs. Mckinley, talking over
things domestic and playing with the
children who were always hanging az
ound "Auntie 'Tinley," as every Can
ton child calls the wife of the Presi-
dent.
The President and Senator Hanna
walked down to the train with her.
The Senator told her that she had nc
right to be newspaper reporter; that
Southern girls, above all others, should
have husband and a house.
"Very good" said the young woman,
"and agree with you. have no SEN
timental view about bettering the
world by writing, or new tangled ideas
about woman having public posi-
tions; but l am a wage Garner, as the
Southern girls must be. to help support
relatives"
well, you ought to be married." in
sisted the Senator, and the President
agreed with him. II don't like to see
women in journalism; don't like to
see them earning living If they car
help it; woman's place is out of pub
lie life, and if woman is clever en-
ough to fill a good position on big
paper. she's far too good for that posi-
tion, and she should use that clever
ness in getting good. rich husband"
Suppose she doesn't know any rich
man." the newspaper woman suggest.
ed.
We'll, know plenty, and l will get
you one," said the Senator. 'T'll tell
you what we'll do. We three will
make a bargain right here. If Presi-
dent Mckinley is reelected I'll get you
a rich, single man. The three SHOOK |
hands and parted.
The President was reelected. Sen
ator Hanna knows many rich, single !
nan in Ohio. But the girl remains un-
married. Saturday Evening Post.

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGs, manufactured by the

the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be

taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and it's acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process OF manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA Fro SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get it's beneficial

SUSTAINED
DEMURRER FILED Bq CITY IA
FORFEITURE SUIT UPHELD
Judge Hook says city Need Not Re-
fund the Money.

Judge Hook, OF the United States dis
trict court yesterday morning sustained
the demurrer Of the attorneys for the de-
Tense in the suit ia which the city was
made defendant and Francis a. Brooks
Of Boston, plaintiff, and incidentally. the
city is ahead just $4,000. The case can
not again be taken into court as q case
ia equity. but Mr.. Harris, who represented
1Ir. Brooks announced his intentions of
bringing a law proceeding at once.
The case recalls the transaction Of the
city with the old Wichita Street Railway
company, which obtained a franchise to
operate a street railway system in this
city. but never got to that point.
The application for the franchise was
made by w O. Church also Of Boston,
and was granted to him. Mr.. Church
was given extension of time in which TO
begin the work in the new system at dif-'
ferent times and finally the city required
a cash bond as a guarantee Of good faith.
This bond was furnished by Francis A.
Brooks. When the same was forfeited by
the city council, Brooks set up the plea
that he had not been given an opportu-
nifty in which to fulfill the contract
Church had failed to fulfill. It was upon
this contention that the case was taken
into court.
The city was represented by the city
attorney. Mr.. Helm. and David Smyth
and C. V. Ferguson.
