The enter tainer was William Willis of Hainpden whose business it Is to trlvei about iht country mending clocks. O the evening of July 3d last he visited the town o Wales. and gave an open-air entertain ment. He posed as black faced come dian, and, from all accounts, was success full in amusing his audience. As Willis was telling funny story, Judge McFar land happened to pass. He heard hi name mentioned, and stopped to hea what was being said.

 Willis had left town, but returned Mon day, and was promptly arrested Whel arr aigled before Judge Dillon Tuesda, morning, he pleaded guilty. The charg was so serious that before passing sen tence 1t seemed desirable to learn some
 thing of the magnitude of the offense Clerk Fitch asked Willis to repeat tn
 story to the court, which he did. It didn' seem to shock any of the people abou

 been entered, nothing remained but t
 impose fine, which Judge Dillon mad $7, to cover the costs.

DIDN'T Do A THING TO SNYDER
The st. Louis Jury that Convicted
Him of Bribery Didn't
Even Hesitate.

st. Louis, Oct. 6.-The jury in Judge
Ryan's court that convicted R.M. Sny-
der of bribery, Saturday night, assess
ing his punishment at five years i'm
prisonment, did not really need to
have left the jury box to render their
verdict, as the first vote is said to
have shown an unhesitating verdict
of guilty as charged in the indict-
ment, with the preponderance of evi-
denee showing that Snyder was not
a resident of Missouri within intent
of the statute of limitations.
The expenses of the state in the
Snyder trial will reach $4,000. There
were numerous witnesses brought here
from Kansas City and View York.
each of whom received mileage at the
rate of five cents mile and witness
fees of s1.25 day. The ST. Louis wit
nesses receive only 81 day. .rhe ho-
tel bills of some of these witnesses
from distance were also paid. Be
sides this, there is the cost of the
special jury, nearly 5000, and other
incidental but heavy expenses which
will bring the grand total to nearly
s., 900.

the Union Pacific railroad for sup

Mary's was supposed TO have met
with serious reverse. and had been
temporarily thrust of its line of di-
rect communication with IT. Riley.
Maj. Leach, of the engineers, COM
manded the force which was guarding
an important depot of supplies at
Fort Riley. Because of the reverse
to the Blues beyond ST. Mary's assist
anee could not be counted upon. ard
he was compelled TO make his fight
alone against strong force of
Browns advancing via stoekdale upon
Ft Riley. His position was strength
cned by hasty intrenehments, there
being no time for elaborate de-
fenses.
The force under Maj Leach consist
ed of the Sixth infantry, the first bat

try, Troop A, Of the Eighth cavalry,
and the Sixth and Twenty-eighth bat
