Through the Associated Press dis
patches last Monday evening it was
learned that Andrew F. Burleigh had
filed a petition in the United States
district court in New York to go
through bankruptcy. Mr.. Burleigh's
liabilities amount to $206,251, while his
assets to cover that vast indebtedness
only amount to $24,924. The heaviest
creditor OF Mr. Burleigh was o. c..
BergdOff Of Pittsburg, who advanced
him $4,000 to construct steamers for
the Yukon River in Alaska. He also
owes Moran Bros of Seattle $4,000.
There are numerous other lesser debts
for which there is nothing in Mr.. Bur-
leigh's assets to liquidate, and, feeling
that the lead was mere than he could
longer lug, he has appealed to the
courts to release him from the same
that he might start out afresh and
perhaps again reach the top OF the
ladder where he once stood and viewed
the struggling masses below

Here's good story that is being
told On the streets at Mayor Humes
expense. While lost in the woods the
other day, when night came on he
crawled into a hollow tree and there
slept all night. The rain came down
in torrents during the night and the
old log did quite bit of swelling on
account of the past dry spell and
swelled SO much that the mayor found
himself in a veritable deathtrap, for
squeeze and push as hard as he would
or could he could not free himself
from his prison. He finally gave him
self up to die, and began, of course,
to go over his entire life and think
of all the mean as we'll as good things
he had ever done Che found the latter
to be few and far apart until he
finally came down to the time when
he was elected mayor of Seattle and
then he thought of the men who were
responsible for his election and then
it came to him how shabbily he had
treated them and in fact everybody
else that had helped him from time
to time to git offs" and he felt SO
mean and little on account of his I'M
faithfulness that he slipped out of the
hole without touching either side and
almost without eXertiOn. 1t was a
rather striking coincidence that Big
Bill Morris should be the first to find
him sitting on his prison log in a
most repentent mood, for Big Bill was
the man of all others most responsible
for his election as mayor and Morris
was thrown down the hardest of all
by Mayor Humes.

Wapperstein run the police affairs of
Seattle just before Chief Meredith was
killed by COnsidine, this city reveled
in a carnival of crime The situation
ended in the retirement of Wapper-
stein. He was reinStated, whitewashed
by the Times, and it is singularly CO
incident that crime is again rapidly
on the increase in Seattle. If Wap-
penstein is only a coincidence, it ap-
pears necessary for the citizens to de-
mand that the criminals be cleared out
together with those who are sheltering
them and giving them license to rob
and kill. The present situation re-
quires thorough investigation and cor
rectiOn. 1t will be too long to wait
for another municipal election. The
people should be too incensed at the
conduct of affairs.
A newspaper man had a bill against
County Auditor Lamping, which had

perhaps again reach the top OF the
ladder where he once stood and viewed
the struggling masses below.
Speaking about Andrew F. Burleigh
brings many pleasant as we'll as un-
pleasant memories to many persons in
Seattle and King county and even in
the state of Washington. Some twelve
years ago Mr.. Burleigh came to Seattle
and quickly worked his way into the
good graces Of the Republican boss of
this county at that time-Col Haines
by a brilliant speech and some ex-
cellent campaigning. Immediately
after the campaign had closed Mr..
Haines took Mr.. BurIeieh into his Of
and political career begin. His rise
from that moment was rapid. and at
the death OF Col Haines he became
the attorney for the Oregon Improve
ment Company and other corporations,
and, of course naturally became the
center OF attraction in political and
financial circles and to some extent
in social circles. The ambitious poll
tician who failed to get Andrew Bur-
leIghS name attached to his list of
petitioners never succeeded in getting
nomination. He was a Shrewd, sa-
SaciOuS politician and never left a
stone unturned in his endeavors to
build up a political machine in this
county and state. During the finan-
cial crisis when all of the railroads
III the country were more or less in
trouble and receivers were as numer-
Gus as railroads Mr.. Burleigh was an
pointed receiver for the Northern Pa
clfic-that part of the Northern Pa
cific railroad extending from Montana
to the Coast. Apparently he was in
the zenith of his career and he had
1t in his power to make governors
and United States senators at will
but an unfortunate turn came his way
and as soon as the road went cut of
the hands Of a receiver Mr. BurIeieh
seems to have hit the bottom like
fOrty-tOn gun, and thence he drifted
from bad to worse until he finally left
the state and went to New York and
there took up the practice of law
again. A Seattle friend saw ham some
months ago and he said he was not
satisfied with New York and longed
to come back to Seattle again, which
he hoped to do in the very near fu-
ture. Now that he is taking a course
in bankruptcy it is barely possible
that he will soon be in the West
again and try to regain his fallen
fortunes in the town where he lost it.

LINDEN aUARrETTE CONCERT.


Special 20 the Indianapolis Journal.
FORT WAYNE. Ind, April 5.-The ninth
annual concert Of the Linden quartet was
given last night at the Wayne-street Meth
odist Church before a large and critical
audience who have come to look forward
with growing interest to the annual re-
citals by this ~well-known musical organi-
zatiOn. II has been heard at several an
nual meetings of the Lincoln League in
various cities of the State and on many
other occasions in this part of Indiana. 1t
is composed of Frank E.. Stouder, bass;
Hugh G.. Keegan, baritone; Frank Z. Rib
let. second tenor, and Louis F. Curdes, first
tenor. They were assisted last night by
Mrs. Edith Yarnelle Keegan, Mrs. Samuel
c. Moffat and the Hayden and Apollo quar-
tets.
The honors were carried off by Mr..
StOuder in Liza Lehmann's Myself When
Young" from "a Persian Garden" and
the old Irish air, "Off 10 Philadelphia"
and by Mrs. Keegan i'm Gounod's "Cava-
tina" from queen of Sheba." Mrs. Moi
fat, soprano, sang with much charm a duet
with Mr.. Stouder, IL Feel Thy Angel
Spirit by Graben-HOffmann, and in the
sextet from Lucia" by Donizetti, Mrs.
Keegan and the quartet carrying the other
parts, but she was suffering from. a severe
cold and her later number "Elsa's Dream"
from Wagner's "LohengTin,' had to be cut
out. The concert closed with Sullivan's
Lost Chord for the triple quartet Of male
voices, which was suns with splendid
power. Mrs. Stouder was a charming fea-
ture of the evening both in organ solos and
accomplishments.
The annual concert by the Lindens at
tracts the cream of the musical talent of
the city, and its repeated successes are lay
ing the foundation for future May festivals
OF high order.

COUNTRY HUMOR.
often the More Amusing Because
Quite unconscious

James Buckham, in New York Post.
Before offering any examples Of country
humor in speech I must caution the reader
against expecting anything keen. polished
or finely wrought in the form in which
these rural bon-mots are expressed. 1t is
the underlying humor-often not perceived
or suspected by the speaker himself-the
latent humOr rather than the patent wit,
that gives to country talk its indefnable
charm. Often the words themselves-the
mere wordsworth seem. to the casual
nearer, entirely devoid Of humor. And yet,
If one follows out the hint they convey.
often taking speech in connection with
manner and glance, the fun begins TO bub-
bic up. like water from a spring that has
been cieansed Of sticks and leaves.
Indeed, with certain country characters
the raw, crude material of humor may be
expected in nearly every utterance. 1t Is
a sure cure for the blues TO associate with
the Unborn and inbred rural wag. I have in
mind a certain elderly lady, with a perpet-
ual twinkle in her eye, whose very presence
is a guaranty of cheerfulness. She turns
everything she touches to humor with that
rarer than Midas-gift of inward sunshine.
IL was she who exclaimed, on sampling a
fresh batch of doughnutS made by my
hostess: Maria. your doughnuts do beat
all Even the holes in 'em taste better
than anybody elses.." And one day, when
