Wichita, Kan, April 25.-Mrs.
Carrie Nation is spending Thurs
day In the rotary cell of the Coun-
ty Jail here for nsubordination
aud fighting with her fcllow-pris-
oner, Mrs. Lucy wilhert.
The rotary is the same a. dun
geon, and she will get nothing but
bread and water while confined
there.
Mrs. Nation and Mrs. Wilhcrt,
one OF her assistants In the saloon-
smashing crusade, were placed in
the same cell In the County Jail
Wednesday, both having refused
to accept bond.
Mrs. Nation Thursday accused
Mrs. Wilhert Of being two-faced,
and slapped her. Mrs. Wilhert
came back with n blow on Mrs.
Nations nose, and n general fight
between the two women ensued.
Sheriff Simmons was forced to go
into the cell and seperatc them.
SHERIFF's WIFE LECTURED.
Mrs. simmons, wife OF the Sher-
III, then went to Mrs. Nation nnd
tried to calm her, the saloon-
smasher being in a terrible rage
and talking so she could be heard
half a block.
Mrs. Nation called Mrs. Sim
mons names. When 1t was found
the saloon-smasher would not be
quiet, she was taken TO the rotary,
where bad prisoners are kept, and
there she remains.
Sheriff Simmons said he did all
he could to pacify her, but found
that ii she was left In the cell with
the other prisoners more fighting
would ensue, 30 he would keep her
In the rotary until she had cooled
down, and then she would be Civ
en- a cell by herself.

Callahan Acquitted.

Judge Baker Of Omaha, Ncb.,
delivered n scathing rcbukc to tho
jury that acquitted Callahan the
alleged kidnaper OF the Cudahy
child last winter. Last Sunday
morning the jury brought In their
verdict and Judge Baker after re-
cciving II said;
"If Callahan had made his own
choice of jury he could not have
selected twelve mon who have scrv
ed him more faithfully. II the state
for it, part had made the selection,
| know of no men II could have
named who have bccn less careful
of IL interests. The jury Is dis
charged without the compliments
Of the court, and the prisoner is
likewise turned loose nv to this
trnl. ! presume to continue the
criminal practices In which you
have failed to check him. do not
know what motive actuatcd you In
reaching this decision, but | hope
none of you will ever appear again
In this jury box"

John Cobb Jailed.

John Cobb. aged about ~ years,
was arrested in this city last Sat-
urday night by Sheriff Wilson and
locked up in Jail to await trial at
the coming term of court next week.
The history of Cobb's crooked
why's runs back for several years.
Just after the Old Settlers picnic
at New Florence In 1890, young
Cobb came to this city and bought
a buggy from j. T. Nunnelly. He
said to Guy Nunnelly that he
would take the buggy that day and
come In on the Friday following
and pay for 1t, as he did not cx-
pect to buy when he left home, and
had left his money ut home. The
Nunnclly's having known his faith
or for several years as an honest
man, believed the sale was safe
and so let the boy have the buggy.
But he said he could not take the
buggy unless he could get set of
harness at the same time. He and
Guy went over to see Mr.. Wilson
the harness man who sold him a
set OF harness, when Guy told him
he would stand good for the pay.
Equipped with this new outfit
Cobb left, having hitchcd up his
horse to the rig. He seemed to
have forgotten all about paying
for the buggy and harness and left
for parts unknown. The Grand
Jury indicted him that fall, but he
could not be located. II was claim
ed that he went down In South
Missouri and committed some
crime and gave the lawyers the
horse and buggy to pay their fee.
He was sent TO the pcnitcntiary
from Douglass county for two
years and had lust been released
when he came to Montgomery City
to take the train for Oklahoma and
was taken in by Sheriff Wilson.
His father Shelf Cobb paid Mr..
Nunnelly slj for his chance on the
buggy about one year ago, but
claims he never did get the buggy.
Prior to the fall OF 1899. Cobb had
been convicted of some crime and
parollcd, his suretics giving a
bond OF 800 for his good behavior.
When young Cobb was sent to the
penitentiary from Douglass county
his surctics here were released as
they could not produce him.
Cobb's case will come up for
trial nj the coming term OF the
circuit court.

Lee Merriweather, OF st. Louis
plans for new party. He said to
a Kansas City Star reporter:
"If the Democrats In 1904 noini-
nate some man like David Il. Hill
or a Grover Cleveland or a David
X. Francis platform We will have
Tom johnson or Bryan In the field
on public ownership platform and
will easily poll four million or five
million votes.
"Tt Is mistake to say We will bc
the third party In 1901. Under
the conditions I have named we
will be second. and possibly first"

Pick-ups Worth Reading.

A Kansas paper says that farm
implements are going down in
price and quotes as follows: Sulky

are going this year for s3s; sii
walking plows sell this year for
$3.50; Cultivators that sold last
year for s2S sell now for S25; sis
corn planters last year, sell now

friends who roercd so much about
trusts last year explain these
things.

HOG AAREEI FIRM
Steady for Best, Other Grades
Lower.
TOPS UP 70 1897 ID
Receipts, LIZ Cattle
Strong on Good Stuff.

The wichita hog market yesterday was
quoted as steady for good hogs, and 9TH
srs ~ cents lower. The quality was
generally good. 2 marked Improvement
over the quality Of Saturday. There was
a fair supply Of hogs for q Monday the
heavy run OF Saturday Indicating that
there were accommodations OF hogs in
country buyers hands and ready for
market, and Saturdays supply and yes
terday's proved the truth of this theory.
The wagon trade and local deliveries
were better, showing that u this was
true here the same would rule at other
points. There WIS an eager demand for
fat butcher hogs, and this grade found
no trouble in receiving the strongest mar
let prices. $50 was paid for tops, the
same as on Saturday, and three cars OF
extra heavy hogs brought this top fg-
IRE. The quality of the offerings all
through the trading was very good the
Eeights showing Up better by consider
able than for q long time. There was d
marked line drawn between the good
butcher hogs and grades OF common and
light weight. These latter generally sold
81 % cents lower. There was an I'M
stable, wabbiy tone to the markets ev-
EryRhere. most Of them reporting SLOW
pnd easy, and steady to lower. This
market cleaned up everything in the pens
by the close and could have absorbed
many more. There were several cars
more reported 70 arrive late and these
were either contracted for by wire ad-
vices cr bid upon couditionalIy. It was
in all a very satisfactory Monday. The
demand was far greater than the supply
Bnd this is the rule generally, each Gay
recording q far more eager call for butch
q hogs than the supply offers
