The Kansas supreme court has decided
that if a man steals from another and
afterwards returns the stolen property
he has not committed a theft. What a
chance for a graft that is. Under that
decision Il man can be all kinds of thief
and still be honest man. If you want
be thief steal what suits your fancy
from your neighbor and if he does not
find it ont you can keep the stuff If he
does and you wish to escape serving time
in the county jail or the penifentiary, all
you have to do is to return the stolen
property with your compliments and you
are safe. Kansas has had many queer
decisions handed down by its supreme
court bn9 this one certainly ranks first in
ueness--Leavenworth Times

G. E. Burhous and James O'Con-
nor, of Zurich, Kas., have been ar
rested by the federal authorities on
the charge of violating a new federal
law relating to the shipment of game.
The law makes it II misdemeanor for
a person to ship into one state game
that is killed contrary to the laws of
another state. In other words, if it
rs against the state law to kill quail
in Kansas then it is against the feder-
al law to ship quail killed in Kansas to
Missouri OF some other outside state.
Burhous and O'Conner, it is alleged, J.,

SENATOR VESTS PET STORY.
BERTHE Allendale Sang in Spite of
Adverse Criticism.


BERTHE Allendale Sang in Spite of
Adverse Criticism.
Senator Vests most famous an
ecdote is that of Miss BERTHE Allen
dale. 1t was told when the two
chambers were arrayed against
each other on the tariff of 1894 and
the House was insisting that the
country would go without any
tariff act unless the Senate was
prepared to forego its own sched-
uIes and adopt those of the House,
relates the st. Louis Republic.
''In my younger days out
West, " said Mr.. Vest, 81 went in
to variety theater one night.
1T was one of those primitive
shows where the manager comes
before the footlights without a
coat or waistcoat with his sleeves
rolled up to the elbows to an
nounce the next number on the
program.
"sMiss BERTHE Allendale," re-
marked the stage manager, APP
pearing in one of the interludes,
who has entranced two hemis-
spheres with her wonderful vocal
powers, will now reEder, in her
inimitable style. .thatexquisite vocal
selection, entitled "Down in the

IA gentleman in red Eannel
shirt rose in the midst of the au-
dience and exclaimed in aD i'm,
pressive bass voice: "Oh, thun-
der, Miss AIlendale can't sing for
green applesa"
'The manager, who had started
to leave the stage, halted and
turned. An ugly light flashed
from the eye which swept the au-
dience and finally rested on the
face of the interrupter. Raising
one shoulder higher than the other
and letting one hand adrift signi-
ficantly toward his hip pocket and
thrusting his neither jaw forward
in a savage way, he observed with
a deliberateness which emphasized
every syllable:
s'Nevertheless and notwith-
standing, Miss BERTHE Allendale
will sing "Down in the Valley ;"
"And she did. So, likewise,
nevertheless, and Notwithstanding
the Senate schedules will stand.

SENATOR VESTS VIEWS.

SENATOR VESTS VIEWS.
Senator Vest, of Missouri, who
is now II years old and who has
been United States Senator
twenty-five years, declares that he
will never again be a candidate
for the Senate, which he will leave
two years hence. He is one of the
ablest members of the Senate, an
accomplished orator and loyal
Democrat, whose tongue at times is
forked. His views as to the po-
litical situation and prospects are
not biased by any personal ambl-
ton and may therefore be taken
as the frank expression of honest
opinion. This is the way he ex
pressed himself in a recent inter-
view:
"What will be the paramount
issue in 1904?" the Senator was
asked.
His reply was: ''The issues
will be made by the conditions
and the man by the issues. The
issues may be brought before us
In a week. They may come in a
single day. Wall street may in
dicate them. Hanna says prices
in Wall street are based on actual
values. If Hanna is right and the
prosperity now enjoy is con-
tinued up to the next election
there will be little need for hav-
ing any Democratic policy in
1904."

Mrs. Edwin Gould is as fond of
bric-a-brac and antiques as her world
famed relative, the Count de Castel-
lane. She indicated her tastes in this
regard on the occasion of recent
visit to New Orleans during the mardi
gras festivities.
New Orleans is the mecca for rich
southerners who are on the outlook
for old-time furniture. The French
people have many valuable articles
dating back to the pre-Napoleon pc
ROD and with proper patience some
rare pieces can be got in the old creole
town.
1t did not take long for Mrs Gould
to appreciate this opportunity, and she
spent much of her time shopping.
These articles were ordered to be

A curious investigator and few
sprigs of catnip led to an amusing
scene at the Zoo in Central Park, New
York City, recently.
The tigers and the puma scornfuly
refused to notice the herb when it was
presented to them by the keeper; but
the lion. the lionesses. and the big
leopard were boisterous III their mani
festitations of pleasure.
The lion planted foot upon it.
smelled it, licked it, sprawlel upon it.,
and tossed it about in ways unbecom-
ing his kingly dignity. The leopard
picked it up in her huge paw, took
long and ecstatic shifts. and rolled
over and over upon it in the eXuber-
ance of her delight. In her efforts to
apply it to the upper part Of her head.
she performed acrobatic feats of an
astonishing kind.
From this experiment the inyestiga-
tor was satisfied that love Of catnip is
not confined to the domestic branch
of the cat family.

There is one school in the world
where all the pupils are princesses. 1t
is at Bangkok, and the scholars are
members of the royal family of Siam.
They come to school on Monday morn
ings and 90 to their respective palace
homes ON Friday, just as less aristo-
cratic scholars might.
The principal OF the school is an
Englishwoman, and the curriculum is
of the simplest order, as required by
the court. Reading, writing and mu-
sic are the only branches taught, the
remainder of the time being devoted
to domestic teaching. The little prin-
cesses learn laundry work in all its
processes, cooking and every other de-
partment of housekeeping, and enjoy
1t immensely, the teachers say. Each
pupil in turn cooks the meals for the
school, prepares the table, arranges
the flowers and writes the menu in the
proper European manner.
Each princess has two CT three maids
to dress and attend her, yet delights
in the bedmaking, laundry work and
other details 50 often thought obnoX-
ious by young persons of lower degree.

Chinese Women,

It is strange, says Harper's Weekly,
that in a country where the ties of
family are so strong and where so
much attention is given to the preser-
walton of the family name, women
should be so looked down upon as
they are in China. The reason for
this. however, is to be found in the
system of ancestral worship and the
patriarchal gathering together of fam
lilies. From the time of her bethrothal
a Chinese girl belong TO the family
of her prospective husband. and often
when her own family is poor or feels
unable to afford keeping her until she
reaches a marriagable age she is sent
even while a mere child to her hus-
bands family to be raised by them.
Even when she stays at home she wor-
ships not the tablets of her own an
cestors, but those Of her husbands;
So she is useless to the family into
which she is born, so FAR as the OBJ
servance of the ancestral rites is con-
cerned.
This is the reason why Chinaman,
on being asked the number of his
children, answers only with the num-
Der of his sons and never counts in
his girls. This, too, is the reason why,
as a rule, Chinese girls are not educat-
ed. Since she is to belong to another
family, the parents do not bother about
her
