And the Red Cross was vanquished.


And the Red Cross was vanquished.
declare" said an energetic official,
moment later, leaning back on her
throne of lemon boxes and tanning her
self vigorously, "for whole hour I've
been trying to move that officers
heart and convince him the order
didn't apply to us. Now how did-she
do it?''
1.-The officer must be some old-sor>e
personal FRIEND" hazarded the secre-
tary. with a quick feminine compre-
hensive glance at the little lady now
being lifted up to shake hands with
the carriage folk, after being loaded
with compliments and congra tulations
by the ladies of the two favored tables.
Not at ALL was the prompt reply
He is volunteer officer she never
set eyes on before to-day. l would
like to know what was on that paper"
But now the roar of cheering and the
blare of martial music had reached the
very gateway. The broad portals were
thrown open and in blue and brown,
crushed and squeezed by the attend
ant throng, the head of the column of
infantry came striding on to the pier.
The band, wheeling to one side, stood
at the entrance, playing them in, the
rafters ringing to the stirring strains
OF The Liberty Bell" They were
still far down the long pier, the slop-
ing rifles just visible, dancing over the
heads of the crowd. No time was to
be lost. More tables were to be car
ried, but-who but that-''that little
army woman" could give the order so
that it would be obeyed. Not one bit
did the president like to do it, but
something had to be done to obtain
the necessary order, for the soldiers
who so willingly and promptly obeyed
her beck and call were now edging
away for a look at the newcomers, and
Mrs. Frank Garrison, perched on the

dominant about it. with you. in a.
minute" he called to those who first
had summoned him. "What is it, Arm
strong?"
II wish to present you to some
friends of mine-Miss Lawrence-Miss
Prime-Mr. Prime-my old associate,
COL Stewart. Pardon me, Mrs. Gar
rison. l did not see you had returned"
She had, and was once more perched
upon the step. Mrs. Garrison-Col.
Stewart. What we need to know,
Stewart, is this: Will all your men
board tn, ship by this stage, or will
some go aft
"All by this stage-why?"
But the colonel felt somewhat mas
sive hand crushing down on his arm
and forebore to press the question.
Armstrong let no pause ensue. He
spoke, rapidly for him, bending for
ward, too, and speaking low; but even
as she chatted and laughed, the little
woman on the carriage step saw, even
though she did not seem to look, heard,
even though she did not seem to
listen:
IAN awkward thing has happened,
The generals tent was robbed of i'm
portant papers perhaps two days ago,
and the guard-house rid of a most i'm
portant prisoner last night. Canker
has put the officer-of-the-guard in ar
rest. Remember good old Billy Gray
who commanded us at Apache? This
is Billy Junior, and I'm awfully sorry
Here the soft gray eyes glanced quick
ly at the anxious face of Miss Lawrence,
who sat silently feigning interest in
the chat between the others. The anX-
ious look in her eyes gave way to sud-
den alarm at Armstrong; next words:
1.-THE prisoner must have had friends.
lie is among your men, disguised, and
those two fellows at the stage are de-
tectives." A low cry came from her
lips, for Mrs. Garrison dropped at the
instant and lay half under the wheels
in deathlike swoon upon the dock.

longer concerning herself, apparently,
about the Red Cross or its tables, had

two most prominent and distinguished
women of San Francisco society, and
requested to issue instructions as to

Mildred Don't drive farther yet" and
within that minute half a dozen BOYS
in blue were Juggling at the first Of
the tables still left on the crowded side
of the dock, and others still were bear-
ing Oil stoves, urns and trays. In less
time than it takes to tell it the entire
Red Cross equipage was on its way
across the pier, and when the COM
handing officer of the arriving reg
iment reached the spot which he had
planned to occupy with his band, his
staff and all his officers, there in state
and ceremony to receive the citizens
who came in swarms to bid them fare
well, he found it occupied by as many
as eight snowy, goody-laden tables,
presided over by as many as so charm
ing maids and matrons, all ready and
eager to comfort and revive the inner
man of his mighty regiment with cot
fee and good cheer illimitable, and the
colonel swore mighty oath and
bounced on his luckless officer of the
quad He had served as a subaltern
many year in the old army, and knew
how it was done.
Didn't | give you personal and posi-
tive orders not to let anything or any
body occupy this space after the bag
gage was got aboard, sir?" he de-
manded.
You did, SIR said the. unabashed
lieutenant, pulling a folded paper from
his belt, land the Red Cross got word
to the general and what the Red Cross
says-goes. Look at that"
The colonel looked, read looked
dazed, scratched his head and said:
''Well. I'm damned.' Then he turned
TO his adiutant. "You were with me
he told men to put this guard on and
keep this space clear. Now, what you
say to that?'
The adjutant glanced over the pen
ciled lines. WE'LL" said he, IF you
spose any order that discriminates
against the Red Cross is going to hold
good, once they find it out, you're
bound to get left. They're feasting the
first company now, sir; shall 1 have
it stopped?" and there was grin I'M
der the young soldiers mustache. The
colonel paused one moment, shook his
head and concluded he, too. would bet
ter grin and bear it. Taking the pa
per in his hand again he heard his name
called and saw smiling faces and
reckoning hands in an open carriage
near him, but the sight of Stanley
Armstrong, signaling to him from an
other, farther away, had something

court may beside as to the valid
ity Of the law.
Ii the supreme court decides
the anti-fusion law nc. good,
then the two tickets will go on
the ballot complete-one headed
Democratic Ticket and the other
Populist Ticket. Ii. however,
the court decides the law good,
but one of these tickets will go
on, under the head Democratic
Ticket.
The course pursued by the two
conventions was the only way
this could be accomplished, and
we believe that every honest,
conscientious democrat and pop
ulist in Kansas who has fore
sight sufficient to see what
would be the natural result if
the DISTINGUISHING election law
was kept on our statute books,
will now go earnestly to work to
secure the success of that ticket.
Think it over carefully, study
the law and the conditions, and
you will see that the two con-
ventions took the only wise
course to enable the people to
CONTROL, and to dethrone cor
rupt, conscienceless part zians.

STATE FUSION COMPLETE.

On the oath and 25th the
Democrats and Populists of
Kansas got together in Topeka
on one complete state ticket, the
Populists naming nine of the
candidates and the democrats
five.
The populist convention was
somewhat divided on the propo-
sition to name half of the ticket
and place it as a half ticket I'M
der the populist heading, or the
naming of full ticket and put
ting it under the Democrat
heading as finally agreed upon.
On this division the vote stood
in 3 different tests as follows:
For the plan agreed upon 1876 to
119; second test 422 to 274;
third test 1876 to 233; these votes
being taken on the adoption Of
various resolutions governing
the act Of the convention.
The ticket which appears on
our first. page was completed by
the populists nominating the
following:
Justice Supreme Court, four
year term,-Frank Doster,
Marion.
Justices Supreme Court, six
year term,-Ed S. Waterbury,
Emporia; B. F. Milton Dodge
City.
Congressman-at-large-J. D.
Botkin, Winfield
Lieutenant Governor,-Fred
j. Close, Ellis.
Treasurer,-D. ii. Heffiebow-
er, Paola.
Attorney General,-E. NJ.
Pearl, Hiawatha.
Superintendent of Public In
struction,-F. C. Powell, Nicker-
son.
Superintendent of Insurance.
Dan j. Hart, Norton.
These candidates were selected
by the populists in regular order
and at 1870 p. m. of the 9th
they were nominated regularly
by the democrats. Then at
1910 a. m. on the Goth the com
plete ticket was nominated by
the populists.
So, in spite of the trickery and
scheming of the republican legis-
lature to prevent the voters of
two parties uniting on one set
of candidates, that has been
done, and done under the pro-
visions of the law, and a CON-
plete ticket containing both
democrats and populists will be
printed on the ballot, no matter
what the republican supreme

went quickly into a basket of peaches
