you know Holton is closer to the reser-
walton, and there was a celebration of
the regular old time pink lemonade va

HEWANTED FIREWORKS.
Pathetic Incident of the Fourth of
July.

A story of poverty, trusting. conf
dence and childish desire to celebrate
was heard by a Kansas avenue clerk
Saturday. A small boy, poorly dressed,
came to a gun store and approaching
clerk who was selling explosives, hand
ed him a crumpled note This missive
said to please give the boy some blank
cartridges, a revolver and some sky
rockets and the writer, the mother of
the youth, would pay the bill next pen
sion day. Of course the busy clerk
could not comply with the request, but
he took time to ask the boy where he
lived I'VE are staying at the fair
grounds" answered the patriot, but
we used to live in North Topeka"
Whether or not the boy found store
where his order for fireworks was hon.
ored was not learned The simplicity Of
the thing left the impression that the
mother was an honest woman accus-
toned to paying her debts, otherwise
she would not have possessed the nerve
to submit a proposition of the kind, bur
unfortunately she was unknown to the
man behind the counter. A small boy
who has no coin of the realm on July
4 is indeed in bad circumstances, par
ticularly if his parents are in the same
condition of bankruptcy.

Perhaps our correspondent who protests
against the ridiculous Incompetence which
permits him and the rest of us to be
choked with dust would be more right
eOusly indignant than ever if he were to
see the three lungs that lie next one an
other in the Anatomical museum at Edin-
burgh university. The first is that of an
Eskimo. and is snow white In life this
would. of course. be rudy from the pres
ence of blood.) The third is that of a coal

one is that of town dWeler and is a
