An Emporia Bootblack Said to Have
Gone Wrong.

Emporia, Kan, Nov ia short time
ago Thomas Philip Perkins,. an Emporia
bootblack, took upon himself the charita-
for an operation on Lin Maddox's leg.
Maddox and Perkins were always side
partners in their various lines of indus

shining shoes at the barber shops and bill

to find Perkins and persuade him to
shell OUT about S12 which he collected
on Commercial street on the benefit fund,
but which Maddox's friends claim was di-
verified from its intended use and which
paid the wedding expenses of Thomas
Philip Perkins and Miss Carrie Renfrow,

Story About How He Secured

Since the resignation of Eugene F.

been accepted there is no end of gossip
about his appointment. A Washington
dispatch says:
1t is an open secret that Mr.. Ware
has been most unhappy as commission
er of pensions. None of his friends
could ever understand why he gave up
a lucrative law practice to accept the
most troublesome job in the govern

bat with pension attorneys, members
of congress. underlings and pensioners.
Mr.. Ware has quarreled with all OF
them. He has written poetry since he
accepted the place. He has likewise
done more artistic swearing than any
federal office holder in Washington. He
probably would have resigned months
agoifhis personal and political enemies
had not tried so hard to bring it about.
He held on just to show that he could
For the first time in the history of
the office the business has been brought
down to date. Mr.. Ware has establish
ed a sort of civil service promotion in
his bureau which is a permanent topic
of conversation in departmental circles.
1t is all Wares idea and the chances
are it will pass out with him. He ere
ated a sensation by increasing the sal
airy Of clerk just because the clerk
had never taken advantage of the
months vacation which was allowed
him by law. This Infatuated all the
other clerks in Washington and they
wrote communications to local papers
about it and are still writing.
1t is believed here that Commissioner
Wares action was not due to any sug-
gestion that the severance of his rela
lions with the pension office would be
agreeable to the president. On the con-
trary it has been no secret that Com
missioner Ware soon after assuming
his duties found the duties of his office
distasteful to him and that this dis
taste steadily increased.
The suggestion is made that James
L. Davenport of New Hampshire will
succeed Mr.. Ware.
The following story of Mr.. Ware's
appointment is told:
Eugene Wares poetry led to his ap-
pointment as a pension commissioner
after H. Clay Evans had been forced
by complaints on the part of c.. A r.
men to quit the office. His selection
for the place was a surprise to the
Kansas delegation in Washington.
Two days before Mr.. Ware was
named for the place the Kansas dele
cation had agreed on Richard Blue
for the place. The delegation did not
know that the president had Mr..
Wares name under consideration until
Representative Curtis was informed of
1T. When the announcement was made
and Representative Miller was asked
to which faction of the party Ware
belonged, he said:
"Pshaw, man; Ware wouldn't know
political faction if he met it in the
road"
President Roosevelt first met Mr..
Ware OronquilD July 8, 1900. He
was on his way to the reunion of his
Rough Riders at Oklahoma City.
When the train reached Topeka SEN
ator Long presented Mr.. Ware, for
whom Mr.. Roosevelt had asked when
leaving Kansas City. Mr. Roosevelt
was pleased with 'Ironquill'' and liked

SENATOR CLAY IN POLITICS.

From Savannah News: Among
the visitors to the meeting of the
League of Georgia municipalities
is United States Senator A. ).
Clay.
When asked for all expression OF
opinion eli the national politica
outlook, Senator Clay said:
81 have only been to Washing
ton once since the nominations
/ am hot prepared to judge tbs
situation in the doubtful states
In fact / think few public men,
who live in the South, understand
the real situation in these states
There is one thing, however
that is encouraging for Democracy.
Our party is once more united,
Judge Parker is doubtless an ideal
candidate.
81 was afraid we would never
get together, but now Mr.. Bryan,
coming with his enthusiastic sup
port, aid with Cleveland appar-
emily favorable. to the nomination,
and with Hill and Tammany, too,
things look more encouraging.
SIN fact, every element in the
Democratic party seems to be sat
isfied with determination, and if
we cannot elect Judge Parker we
could not have elected anybody.
81 believe all will agree that
from the time he became candi-
date to this day he has not made
q single mistake, land has undoubt-
eddy grown stronger IN public
favor all the while.
Heretofore the business ele-
ment of the country seems to have
been against us in the North. 1t
would appear now that this ele-
ment Is against Mr.. Roosevelt,
and IN favor of Judge Parker. 1t
seems to be conceded that Parker
stsnds better chance of carrying
New York, but he must have more
states. New Jersey ought to &c
Democratic. for nominally it is a
Democratic state, as is also Con-
necticut.
"But we have got to have more

ginia or Wisconsin. There will
undoubtedly be a battle royal in
those states that present an equal
chance"
