BRIGAND BRAVES POLICE.
Musolino, Folk Hero of Italy. Was
Bonnd to See His Father.

Rome, June For months
thousands of Italians soldiers and
policeman have been trying to
catch Musoino, the notorious bri-
grand He has just played them Il
neat little trick, which illustrates
the audacity of the man.
MuSOlino, in his refuge in the
mountains, learned one day that
his father was seriously ill, and at
once resolved TO make him a visit.
He knew we'll that his fathers
house was closely watched by sold
ierS and that before he could reach
it he would have to pass through
country fairly alive with police, all
anxious to obtain the large reward
for him, dead or alive, yet he did
not hesitate a moment, for he loved
his father and vowed ia see him be
fore he died.
At night he crept through the
woods to the house Of a priest and
demanded the loan of a cassOck.
AS it is not customary to lend
vestments to Iaymen, especially
laymen of Musolino'S type, the
priest began to raise objections,
but his visitor speedily let him know
that he had come to get cassOck,
and that a cassock he would have
Seeing that argument would be
useless, the priest gave him the
garment and MusOlinO put it on,
and thus disguised he walked bold
ly into the valley.
He net a policeman at almost
every step, but not one recognized
him They all saluted him res
pectfuIIy. The danger was more
grave as he approached his fathers
house, but the soldiers gathered
around it proved to be as obtuse
They, too, never dreamed that the
vowed figure, clad in priests gar
meDts, whom they permitted to pass
through their line and into the
house was the brigand
MusolinO was glad to find that
his father was not as i'll as had been
reported He found his sisters at
in the house and he spent a few
pleasant hours with them before he
returned to the mountains near
AsprOmOnte.

a MEMBER Of the French cham
Der Of deputies is alarmed about
American business competition,
which he is pleased to term the
American peril. 1t puzzles one
to see where any danger to French
industries can arise from industrial
progress in this country, so long
as Paris continues TO sell us our
fashions, and so long as we Amer
leans continue to send our cotton
seed oil and wines to France to be
transformed into genuine French
products to be resold to us. The
mania for the foreign stamp on
our clothes, wines and other artl
cles which pervades this country
bids fair to keep mp healthy bal
ance of trade for France Aud, in
truth, it must be admitted that
many of these imported goods are
superior to the home made article,
for our American manufacturers
often turn out as much shoddy as
anything else

adjoining room and actually brought a
sponge out and squeezed il over the
blaze. instead Of bringing the bucket of

out the fire department, but he did not
think Of it for about an hour afterwards.

wko wanted 10 pitch hay. Pat heard the
enquiry and asked hin. how much he had
to pitch. The farmer told him And
YOU want two men," asked Mr.. Healy.
The farmer who. by the way was Mr..
Razey, who lived in Delano township,
said he did. and would pay them sl-5e a
DAY and their board. Now then said
Pat, I can't eat as much as two men,
but I can pitch as much hay as they can,
ana if you give me the pay Of two men

AIr- Razev that he was serious, he got
the job. The next morning. Pat went
out 10 the farm. 1--WE miles west of town,
and began work At : O'Clock in the ar
ternOon. he went 10 Mr.. Razey erG said:
Cant you get on your moving machine
ana cut four or FIVE more acres Of hay
for me?' Mr.. Razey was astonishcG TO
ina that he had all of the hay pitched.
anG pulled out g 20 give to him. but
Pat was conscientious. and threw two
bits Of for the shank Of the day ne didn't
work. Mr.. Rszey has offered to bet sew
eral times that Mr. Healy can pitch more
hay in a day than any three men in
Seigwick county. II was the first money
Pat made in Kansas.
After the hay pitching incident. ne went
TO work in a brick-yard. One day a lot
of landseekers came from Illinois and a
local real estate man sent for Pat, who
knew them, to sell them some land.
Now then" the real estate man said.
to Pat. take them down to Gypsum
township and you viii find a farm there
that you can sell One corner of it is
gravel. but you must not let them see
it. Pat took them out ana showed
them the land. and after they had looked
il over pretty thoroughly, they said they
would take it. Pat then told them what
the real estate man said about the
gravel and took them over whore it was.
They ii honesty and rewarded him
by not only buying that farm, but an
otIser one. and his share of the commits
sions that day was s117. lie went back
TO work in the brick-yard, but in about
a month some more Illinois landseekers
came to Wichita and Pat was sent for
again. lie sold them land and made $40
in commissions He then saw that land
selling was more profitable than brick
making and he went into the business
and made fortune in the succeeding
years

ANTHONY AND ITS ORIGIN
jim Wolff was telling yesterday Of an
experience he had down in Anthony snort
y after The town was located. He was
building a house there for Martin Hellar.
Fred Hellar was then q little lad going
around barefooted where he thought the
most fun ives. Mr. Woltz caught and
bridled a badger and fought him against
every dog in Anthony. Wherever there
was a dog tight Fred Hellar was sure 70
be and as this affair with the badger
was an unusual thing he was there as big
as lie When the badger had licked
few dozen dogs hand running he looked
about him TO see whether there was any
more and not seeing any he took hold OF
Fred Hellar's leg and planted his teeth
so firmly in the flesh thai jim Woltz had
TO kill him with a spade and pry his jaws
away from the boys leg Mr. Woltz
said that Fred could have been heard
screaming distance Of fifteen miles while
that badger was hitcked onto him.
This story started the reminiscent tai
ents OF Pat Healy who told how Anthony
came into existence on his suggestion.
one day Pat was setting in his Office near
the present site Of the Carey hotel with
two blocks of commons between him and
the business center when a man named
Burr dropped in and introduced two
friends from Harper 10 him. The two
men had organized the town and came
up to Wichita TO promote it. Pat ex-
pressed his opinion that it was not cen
trauy located enough for q county seat
and thought it ought 10 be nine or zen
miles farther south. One of the men
talked loud and bold intimating strongly
that Pat did not know what he was talk
ing about. Pat said he did for Mollie
Anderson who kept the peanut stand near
by had told him that she had land adj
Joining the town and that she said she
was only six miles from the Kingman
county line The bold young fellow said
that it was twelve miles and the discus
sion waXed so warm that all the neigh
bors rushed in to find out what was up.
If you are a lawyer as you say said
Pat, you ought to know something about
county lines" Then Pat took down the
statutes and showed the bold young law
yer where he was wrong. That young
lawyer was no other than I. p. Camp
bell. now of this city aud formerly Popu-
list candidate for congress. His partner
was J. p. Glenn, now also OF this city.
After they had left Pats Office the crowd
that had been attracted by the loud dis
cussion not only sustained Pats conten-
ton that the county seat would be some
where else than Harper. but they ac-
tually organized the Anthony town com
pany. bought the land. plated IT and be-
gan building. After this came the mem
orable county seat war between Harper
and Anthony. the bitterness OF which
still affects the business. social and po-
litical affairs OF Harper county. Anthony
won and is now prosperous county seat
town. If the origin of Kansas towns is
ever included in history it win make an
interesting chapter.
