KANSAS NEGROES ARMING
FOR RAID ON WHITES

Leavenworth, Kan, June 17.-Great
excitement has been created by the UNI
earthing Of what appears to be scheme
of the negroes Of Leavenworth to arm
themselves with revolvers purcha sed
from the soldiers at Fort Leavenworth.s
Ever since the burning of Fred Alexan-
der the negroes of Leavenworth have
been in an ugly mood, and conservative
men say the race feeling stirred up at
that time may break out any time.
The police are doing everything pos
sible to kill this feeling, and are assist
ing the. officers at Fort Leavenworth to
recover the revolvers.
1t seems the negroes had circulated the
report among the soldiers at the fort that
they would buy up all the government
revolvers offered. and several of the SOL
diers took the opportunity of disposing
of the governments goods.
Lieut.. F. L. Deem of Troop K. finally
set a trap for the negroes. instructing
certain privates to offer their weapons
for sale. Three negroes who bought
them We're arrested and are being held.

He said the kidnapping might takx

calling him paranoiac.
With all this Dowie repeated con-

to immortality, until such time as his
work was accomplished.

Denver, Col, June 17.-Rev. John l..

the sea with the graphing hook Of
Christ's gospel Again and again we
have thought that you were at the sur
face. and we began to rejoice over your
redemption. but at the moment Of our
gladness you sank back again into the
world and back again into sin. Today
we come with the gospel searching for
your soul. We apply the cross Of
Christ first to see whether there is any
life left In you. while all around the
people stand. looking to see whether
the work will be done, and the angels
Of God bend down and witness, and,
oh, If now we could see only one spark
Of love and hope and faith we would
send up n shout that would be heard
on the battlements of heaven, and two
worlds would keep jubilee because
communication Is open between Christ
and the soul and your nature that has
been Sunken In sin has been lifted into
the light and the joy Of the gospel.

4 Huge Long Island Industry Which

A Huge Long Island Industry which
Prospers by War.
Few people know that more than half
the banjo and drum heads sold In the
United States are made on Long Is
land. Near the railroad station at
Cold Spring is little red building sur
rounded by frames. in which skins are
stretched for drying, while near by Is
an artificial pond, with wooden sides
and bottom, filed with chemical mix
ture. 1t IS an unpretentious establish
ment, but In our two wars and In the
peace between 1t has fathered great
deal of noise The business was estab-
llshed In 1860, and success was almost
immediate. Competition was strong
after the rush Of war orders was over,
but the business has advanced in I'M
portance until now there are but three
factories In this country whose opposi-
ton can be felt Two Of these are In
Brooklyn and the other at High View,
n.
New York markets furnish the salt
ed raw skins from which the drum
heads are made. The hair Is removed
from the skins by chemical bath In
the artificial pond, and the skins are
then stretched on the racks and dried.
A thorough scraping removes any par
ticles of fat or flesh that may have
adhered to the dried skin. which Is
then the thickness Of parchment. The
skins are thoroughly bleached In the
drying process and are then ready for
cutting into heads. During the Span
ish-American war the factory was fair
ly swamped with orders for drum
heads, 500 dozen heads often being or
dered at one time. The principal de-
mand was for the tenor" drum, on
which a loud accompaniment to the
fife or bass instrument can be pro
duced.
Kangaroo skins make the costliest
drumheads When dressed, they are
snowy. but beyond their appearance
and name they are Of no greater value
than heads made from calfskin. Sheep
skin Is used for cheap toy drums.-New
