share in the OK that did the goring. Seth Low
was the candidate of the fusionists, and fusion
may be all right in New York, but it is hi in
Kansas, and illegal. About all see in the
muss is that New York is away behind Kansas
in up-tc.date, up-to-snuff legislation. Evident
ly, Kansas leads the world in politicians who
are not men, and Tammany comes next. Now,
If Seth Low should prove to be a politician
who is man, New York and all the world will
be gamers. 1t will also prove that fusion is
not h-l. 1t will also 60 to show that the
authors of the anti-fusion law in Kansas are
politicians, but not men.
One of his most gracious maiesties, million
aire, prepared poodle-dog supper that cost
$500. This is no 'joak"-I read it in a news
paper. There is nothing said about what be-
came of the fragments, but as it is becoming
fashionable to give away old clothes and scraps
of food, have no doubt that poor people living
in the vicinity of the dog-supper mansion were
treated to the remains of the dog feast. This
happened in one of the remote provinces of
Christian America. and is another of the evil
one more question to settle, and that is, where
will the poodle-supper man 60 when he dies?
Will he 60 to Heaven, on kite of his own, or
will he be borne thitherward, up to the third
Heaven, at least, on the strong arms and hot
prayers Of immaculate clergy?

+ Notwithstanding the drouth, times are still
good The farmers piled so much money into
bank out in Sumner county as to cause one
vault to bust and another one to become ser-
ously cracked. Something similar happened
to the Standard Oil Company. Another per
cent quarterly dividend has been declared,
making total of 48 per cent for the year, or
$48, 200, 900 on the capital stock. It is claimed
that John D. Rockefeller owns 40 per cent of
the stock, and If So he has received in divi-
dends, in the last ten years, the sum of $685.
100000. There is hardly any doubt, now,'
that John will 60 to Heaven; and, also, will be
able to carry few dozen minsters-as many,
at least, as can swing to Johns flowing coat
tails. Great thing to have clutch on Johns
coat-tails.
noteu contempt case is on IN chicago. 1ne
Chicago American got after the gas trust with
long pole. The pole had steel point The
trust was prodded from it's lair and forced to
appear in couit. The gas trust is a NANCY
beast, half coyote and three. quarters yaller dog.
The dirty beast won in suit brought by the
citizens and the Chicago American. The
Americans staff wrote and published some
things about the decision of the court as to ex-
cite the COURTS displeasure. His honor, in the
heat of his anger, arragned the Americans
staff on the heinous cherge of contempt. The
case has been argued, but at present the decis-
ion is not rendered, and will bet sound money
(not hocus pocus money! that the Chicago
Americans staff are in for big fine. The
judge is tool of corporations, and will fine the
accused to even up the prosecution, if for no
other cause.
A week or two since, a woman OF London,
England, was brought before a coroner to
answer for the death OF one of her children. 1t
was brought out, in the investigation, that i NJ
woman and her family lived in one-roop
lar, and were so poor that they let the ce
a carpenter in day time. The room was t,ii
nished with a few rags and few cooking
utensils The child died of starvation and
asphyxiation-so the doctor said. The woman
was let off with light sentence, for it is against
the law to live in cellar All this occurred
in Christian England, in the year 1901. In
