ARDENT LOVERS
Fail to Marry Because Of The Cruel Min
ions of the Law.

Instead of being happy benedict, in
accordance with his well-laid plans
Kalile Sada finds himself in trouble
and called upon to answer to a serious
charge. Sada for some time has been
in the employ of A. c. Guesses, the
well known fruit dealer, and for many
weeks he and Miss Halda. the charm
ing daughter of his employer have been
sweethearts. They were promised TO
wed, and after having secured parental
approval arrangements for the happy
event were made. But on the very eve
of their wedding day cloud crossed
their sky.
1t will be remembered that the stor-
age rooms of the Diamond Pants Com
pany were broken into and robbed some
days ago. AS stated IN our Sunday is
sue, two boys, Alonzo Chiddester and
Arthur Singer, were arrested on sus-
picion. They plead guilty to tho
charge, but implicated Kalile Sada, say
ing the socks which they stole, forty.
seven dozen pairs, We're sold to him.
A warrant was issued for Sada and
he, too, was placed under arrest. All
three were arraigned in Mayor Sykes
court Monday morning. The boys
were bound over to the grand jury in
the sum of three hundred dollars, and |
failing to give it they were sent to Jail.
The case of Sada is set for hearing on
next Saturday. His bond was fixed at
five hundred dollars, which was signed
by his prospective father-in-law.
1t is said that the stolen socks were
shipped by express to one Abraham
Halleck, at Spencer, w. Va.

NEGRO DISFRANCRISEMENT.

! Five Southern States have now prac-
tically disfranchsed the negro, Mis-
sissippi, South Carolina, Louisiana,
North Carolina and Maryland have
amended their constitutions, limiting
suffrage to those who may comply with
educational qualifications, property or
both. They probably will soon be
Joined by Alabama, Georgia and Virgi-
mia. The question of negro disfran-
chisement is thus becoming an import
ant one to the whole country.
In 1892, Mississippi adopted a new
constitution which, among other pro-
visions, required that voter should be
| able ito read any section of the Consti
tuition of the State or to under
stand the same when read to him or
give a reasonable Interpretation there
Of" These provisions were sustained
United States Supreme Court. In 1898,
South Carolina amended its Constitu-
tion as follows: THE applicant must
be able to read and write any section
of the Constitution submitted to him
by the registration officer or show that
he has, own and has paid taxes col
lectable during the previous year on
property within the State assessed at
$500 or more" In the same year,
Louisiana added to requirement SINH
lar to that above, a more rigorous one,
that of requiring a written application
for registration of 70 words. Then
North Carolina followed with an edu-
cational qualification with a grand
father" clause attached. Last year
Maryland adopted an educational quail
fication putting whites and blacks on
the same basis.
In Mississippi the colored vote fell
from 150.436 in 1890 to 1924, while the
white vote fell from 121,504 to los, 1897.
In Louisiana the colored vote was re-
duced from 130,344 to 2,402 and the
white vote from 164.0SS to 74133. In
the remaining states the loss of the
colored votes is about the same, though
that of white votes is less. However,
the total loss in each is sufficient to war
rant congress in reducing representa-
lion, and it will probably do so in jus.
ice to the rest of the country The dis
ranchisement question is important to
he whole country, from this matter of
representation.

The method of getting lands by draw
ing, which is to be theplan in Oklaho-
ma at the throwing open of the new re-
servations on August 6, 1901, will be
less picturesque and exciting than the
plan of getting them by running for
them and pouncing on them which pre-
vailed in the opening in 1889. On the
whole, the new way will be better than
the old. The 1889 plan gave an advant-
age to the young and sturdy, and those
with fleet horses, while the 1901 meth
cd gives young and old, poor and we'll
to-do, an equal chance. There will be
less violence under this years system,
less litigation and expense. These
compensations ought to reconcile the
country to the absence Of picturesque
ness in the affair. August 9Th will be

He Gets SAD NEWS
Mr. J. Oak Davidson Hears of
Cousins Death.
FORMERLY LIVED HERE
Was Vice President of Kansas
National Bank.

Mr.. J. Oak Davidson received a tele-
gram yesterday from Austin, Minnesota,
announcing the death of his cousin. Chas.
II. Davidson. The announcement will be
learned with regret here where the de-
ceased had so many friends. For three
or four years previous to 1897, Mr.. David
son lived in Wichita, and besides being
vice-president Of the Kansas National
bank. he was :ts active manager. He
studied the interests of Wichita and iden-
titled himself closely with them, always
indulgcnt with tardy business men at
time when every day was critical in the
affairs of practically every bank in the
country. The Kansas National, under
his management, weathered the most ser
ious financial storm for half a century
and came out of il to greet prosperity
strong and healthy. In social life Mr.
Davidson was man of fine qualities. He
knew what a good book was and kept
himself well posted in the literature of his
time. He was apparently not easy of ao-
cess but that was because Of his modesty.
He was very democratic in his habits and
he chose for his friends men whom he
liked regardless Of their financial or social
standing. He placed men of ideas above
men OF money and he liked TO talk with
them. While the public generally, per
haps. did not fully appreciate him. those
who knew him well. had very high
personal regard for him. He was a man
who had a good brain and a warm heart
When the Spanish war broke out pos
sibly TO man in Kansas knew more about
the Philippines than Re did. His son, a
young man OF twenty-three. had been an
American correspondent with the Philip
pine insurgents in three fights with the
Spaniards for liberty. He wrote 20 his
father frequently and many OF his letters
were published in the Eagle. long before
the average reader had heard OF Admiral
Dewey and when no one had the slight
est idea that that archipelago would ever
belong TO the United States. Mr. David
son was naturally very proud Of his son
who, also. Travelled as a correspondent
IN China during me Chinese-Japanese war. /
lie rendered valuable services 10 ths
army which earned for him
decoration and a letter Of profound graft .
tude from the MIlIado.
The Wichita people who knew the fine
traits OF Mr.. Davidson best viii mourn FOR T.
him most sincerely.
