TRACY COULD

His Smoothness Baffled Officers
OF Iowa.

Abba, Ia, Aug. S.-When Harry
Tracy, the desperate. who terrorized
the state Of Washington, was only a
boy he established his reputation as q
dangerous criminal in Monroe county,
Iowa. Late in the fall of 1887, fine
road team belonging to r. O.. Cramer,
of this city, was stolen from a stable
in the heart of the CITY,. The theft
was SO bold that persons who saw two
men drive away from Cramer's barn
with the blooded team supposed that
the horses were being taken away
with the permission of the owner
Sheriff Milt Forrest connected Tracy
with the crime and found him III Jail
at wymore, Neb.
Extradition papers were secured and
Tracy was brought back to Abba for
trial. The prisoner was locked in the
county jail only few hours when the
guards discovered that he had picked
all the locks between himself and
freedom and was about to make his
escape. VIZ
On other OCCASIONS Tracy sprung
handouts and shackles while walking
with his guards. His great skill at
manipulating locks battled all guards,
and finally the Sheriff was, compelled
to send the man to the State peniten,
tiary at Ft. Madison, Ia, where he was
kept until time for his appearance in
Court. ~ =

P( Ssessing the power to harass and

they have succeeded in practically dis

partisan, unjust and unfair ballot law.
To take measures and decide upon a

we will go into a triangular contest,

rendering success impossible next

we will plan to continue cooperation
with those who have been our allies

in working for the overthrow Of the
republican denomination and the res

To the Peoples Party of the State of

Your committee realizes that ques-
tions have arisen involving the rights
and liberties of the people composing
our party, their power to make their

as &c thwart such expression.
Believing that in all times of doubt

involving the rights and interests of
the people are pending, and having in
view the fundamental principals of
populism which demand that they, the
entire party membership, shall have a

TWO NEIGHBoRHooD sPREEs.
One Came of Tapping a Barrel of
whisky from Beneath the
Floor.

An epidemic of drunkenness that
is said to have prevailed at Trux-
ton, Chenango county, IL years ago,
when farmers, business men and
others who had never been known
to indulge were intoxicated nearly
all the time for a month or more,
has just been explained, says the
Utica Observer.
According to the story a barrel of
whisky was left over night in the
freight depot at TruXton, and in the
morning the contents were missing.
The railroad company finally settled
for the liquor, but until the other
day did not know what became of
it. One or more parties who knew of
the presence of the whisky in the
depot, so the story goes, went I'M
derneath, and, boring through the
floor and the barrel, drew the con-
tents into a washtub, from which it
was transferred to jugs and other
receptacles and buried until the eX-
citement over it's disappearance had
worn, off. Then it was distributed
around among the faithful and a sea-
son of hilarity and dissipation fol-
lowed until the supply was exhaust
ed, when the community again so
bered up and continued in the even
tenor of its way.
This incident was told by one of
the commercial travellers who run
into Utica, and then one of his fell
lows told an incident of similar
nature. 1t happened in a Pennsyl-
vania town near Binghamton.
There was an old chap over there
who had a reputation for making the
finest apple jack in the country, and
he had plenty of customers. Last
year just before Thanksgiving he
drove into town and made the rounds
of his customers and made each fam
| lily present of a generous portion
of apple jack. With each gift he re-
marked that it was a little something
extra for their Thanksgiving din
ner, and so the treat was saved for
that occasion. As a result, there was
more hilarity, more going on in the
homes of the apple jack manufae-
turer's customers on Thanksgiving
! afternoon than sthere had been be-
! fore in many moon; and the day
after there were whole lot of head-
aches. Several months thereafter it
franspired that the old joker had
skillfully mingled with his apple jack
a generous portion of distilled spir-
its, and when he was demonstrated

Everybody knows, pretty nearly ev-
erybody, that Kansas leads the world
in wheat; that as corn producing
state she is prominent, but the fact
that Kansas holds first rank among
the states in the production of both
zinc and gypsum plaster, third rank
in salt, fourth rank in utilization of
natural gas, and nineth in coal, are
not so we'll known to the world at
large. Her reputation as an agricul-
tural state, has perhaps, rather tend
ed to injure her in the sense that it
has dwarfed consideration of her re-
sources in other directions. It is for
the purpose of bringing to the atten-
ton Of the people Of the country the
fact that Kansas is entitled to a repu-
tation for more than is credited, when
she is classed only as an agricultural
state, that the Kansas Mid Winter
Exposition, to be held at Topeka, Jan.
10Th, to 30th. was undertaken. The
interest that is being manifested in
this Exposition indicates that 1T will
be a decided success.

GUARDING A PRESIDENT.
An EnEIiShmnn's Narration of His
Singular Experience in the
City of Mexico.

Danger of assassination IS never
far from q president of any of the
republics south of US said Mr.. John
Walker Braithwaite, of London, on the
way from Mexico o his English home,
reports the Kansas City Star, land
they are guarded much more careful
" than many of US imagine, for they
make no great display in the matter.
This fact was impressed on me very
strongly by a personal experience in
the City of Mexico last spring. I had
been thrown from a mule and had
suffered a severe sprain in my right
wrist, in consequence of which 1 had
it closely bandaged, and after it was
well enough not to be carried in a sling
I went about with it N the side pocket
of my sack coat.
''While walking with my injured
hand thus supported early one even
ing l saw President Diaz, whom I
knew quite well, coming toward me,
accompanied by member of his Off
cial household. They were walking
on the same side of the street as my
self, and some 60 feet behind them
and at the same distance in front
walked two men, who wore no insignia
of authority and in no way showed
that they had anything to do with
the president and his companion.
''As the two men in front neared me
they separated, making room for me
to pass between them, and as 1 was
doing so the man on the left knocked
against my arm as though by accident.
and naturally I drew it out and away
from danger. He apologized politely
in Spanish, took hold of my hand gen
thy as he did so and asked if it had
been injured. As was accepting his
apology and beginning to tell of my
hurt the president came up and, greet
ing me heartily, laughed at the situa-
ton and explained that the two men
were guarding him and had deliberate
~ made me expose my hand to make
sure that did not hold in it weapon
with intent to injure him. The presi-
dents guardians are very watchful
and it would be almost impossible for
an armed man to get near enough to
him to do him injury"

New Requirements for Teachers
Diploma.

At a meeting of the Board Of Re-
gents OF the University of Kansas on
December 20 several important chang
es we're made in the conditions for the
granting OF the teachers diploma of
the University. The degree of the
Bachelor of Arts in Pedagogy, intro
duced last spring, was discontinued,
and the undergraduate courses of the
department of education were admit
ted TO the list of optional courses Of
fered for the Bachelor of Arts degree:
Each student of the school who COM
pleteS two and half terms work in
this department, and at least four
terms work in the subject he wishes
especially to teach, or in allied sub
jects, will receive teachers diploma
on graduating; provided, however,
that he offer % terms of underg radu-
ate work for his degree, instead of the
usual "a terms, and that his scholar
ship record for the 25 terms shall
average as high as grade IL. In every
case the ultimate decision as to the
candidates proficiency will rest with
the department in which the major
work is t9ken.
These requirements for the teach
er's diploma, which are in accordance
with the provisions of the Grattan
certificate law, the standard for all
Kansas Colleges, have been approved
by the State Board of Education; so
that students receiving the teachers
diploma will also receive state teach
er's certificates good for three years.
