AN OVER JEALOUS SHERIFF.

Now that sheriff Brady of Hamilton
county, Kan, who refused to permit
the deported Colorado miners to set foot
on Kansas soil, has had time to think
the matter over, it is probable that he
has come to the conclusion that he was
over Jealous in his efforts to keep men
whom he thought to be bad out of his
state. 1t will be recalled that the mill
tary authorities deported ninety union
miners from the Cripple Creek section
on last Saturday. 1t was probably the
intention to land them at some town
in Kansas, but the sheriff of Hamil-
ton county met the train near the
state line and refused to permit the
deported miners to stop in Kansas.
They were therefore dumped out on the
desert. They were supplied with neith-
er food, water nor shelter
Now the people of Kansas are asking
for the authority of the sheriff for
his action, and, as far as known, ne
had none. 1t seems the Governor was
at the ST. Louis exposition, but there
was some one acting for him.. Surely
the acting Governor didn't advise the
sheriff to keep the men out of the state.
There was no charge of crime against
them. 1t is true that it was asserted
that the union miners at Cripple Greek
and vicinity were responsible for the
murder of twenty or more non-union
miners at independence, but no proof
had been offered against the deported
men, and, in fact, no. charge made
against them. There was no reason
therefore why they shouldn't have been
permitted to stop in Kansas.
1t is probable that the matter will
be given pretty through overhauling
No doubt the Hamilton county sheriff
acted in accordance with his views of
his duty, but because he didn't take
advice from some one competent to
give it to him the point may be made
against his party that it is against
union labor, and that the sheriff only
did what his party wanted done in
keeping the deported miners out of
the state.
The Governor of Kansas appeared to
be greatly stirred up over the matter.
AS soon as he heard of the action of
the Hamilton county sheriff he hur-
ried at once to Topeka. Doubtless he
gave that sheriff an unpleasant quarter
of an hour when he got within talk
ing distance of him.

Boron Rothschild's Dialect ,Jolxe.

Owen Wister, the novelist, was talk
ing about puns. says the Baltimore
Herald. Il detest puns," he said, but
Fanny Kemble. who was my grand
mother, used to tell one made by a GER
tain Baron Rothschild that was good Of
its kind.
The Baron was dining out, and some
one spoke of venison.
T., said the Baron, 'nevair eats
venisohn. l think it ish not so coot
ash mutton
oh, absurd some one exclaimed.
II mutton is better than venison, why
isn't it more expensive?
The Baron laughed overcome by the
brilliancy of the pun that had just
come to him. Then he said, and his
dialect came in very handy:
The reason why venisohn ish more
expensive than mutton ish that the
people always prefer vat ish deer to
vat is sheep"

King Alcohol in Anecdote.

In condemning intemperance, Mrs.
John A. Logan recently said to the
Cincinnati Enquirer:
Alcohol so vitiates the mind that
the degradation it imposes on its vic
Tins hardly seems like degradation to
them. The woes of these men are
changed to blessings in their besotted
brains.
'Fldr Instance" said Mrs. Logan,
smiling, there used to live in Ken
lucky an old man called Fawcett
Jones. Fawceet drank to excess, and
he used to declare that whisky was
meat and drink to him. But one hot
summer night he drank so much that
he fell into a puddle on the way home,
and in the puddle he lay snoring until
dawn.
"A clergyman who had risen early
found him with his head in the mud
and his legs and body in the water,
and the good man woke him up.
All, he said, so whisky is meat
and drink to you, is it, Fawcett?
'Fawcett rose to his feet and began
to wiring out his clothes.
1t certainly is, he said, and wash
ing and lodging, too, sir.

THE souTH,s suPREMAcY.

In an interesting and instructive adj
dress, before the convention of the
Georgia Industrial Association at Warm
Springs last week, Hon. Daniel Daven-
port, of Bridgeport, Conn.,, intinated
strongly that the commercial and in
dustrial supremacy OF New England
was steadily being transferred to the
South. He pointed out the advantages
possessed by the South over that sec
tion-advantage which consist of
soil, climate and the abundance of
minerals, together with the raw mate
rial for the manufacture of cotton prod
ucts-and he spoke of the energy, en-
durance and courage of the Southern
people. In the course of his remarks
he said: II sometimes think, as look
upon the usual train of events in this
country and the causes of prosperity,
that the hour of irrevocable decline has
struck New England, that the limit of
industrial and commercial supremacy is
about acquired, and that it is about
to be taken up by the people of the
South"
Mr.. Davenport isn't the first New
Highlander to see the coming suprern-
acy of the South. Many of them have
already put their money in Southern
enterprises. In all of the South At
lantic states, particularly in Georgia
and Florida, there are many natives of
New England. They are found in all
lines of endeavor. and are assisting to
bring about that Industrial and COM
mercial greatness which Mr.. Daven-
port predicts.

Would Hurry when the Lord chi

1t is an awful good thing to obey
the commands of the Lord" says a
member of the recent Methodist Cen
eral Conference from Pennsylvania to
Washington Times man, "and when
ever think of this l am reminded of
story related of a pioneer Methodist
named Valentine Cook, who was
power in his day, and who got off
many odd sayings.
Once there was a terrible up-
heaval of nature in the shape of an
earthquake, and DIR. Cook woke up
finding his bed jostling and turning.
He believed the end of the world near

Uncle Joe" Cannon is quoted as
saying that if he should be nominated
against his will to the vice presidency,
and elected, he would take the oath
of office, so that his salary might be
RENTED to him. appoint private Sec

clerk-all the patronage that goes with
the office-and would never go near

follow a precedent set by Mr.. Wheeler,
who was Vice President in the Hayes
administration. Mr.. Wheeler was an

Judge Emory Speer did not depart
from his custom of introducing inno-
vations into his court proceedings the
other day, when he appointed a woman
to be receiver for considerable bust
ness interest in this city. The depar-
ture, like all of those made by Judge
Speer was based on excellent reasons.
Miss Walsh, the first woman receiver
to be appointed in this country, so far
as the information goes, is eminently
qualified to discharge satisfactorily the
trust that has been given to her. For
a number of years she has been en-
gagged in business in this city, where
she has won success and high esteem
by her thoroughly business-like meth
DDS. 1t is generally conceded that the
bankrupt concern could have fallen into
no more careful and competent hands
than those of Miss Walsh.

A new anti-burglar device has been
accidentally discovered in Dover. Del.
Some nights ago burglars blew a safe
in that city, using nitro-glycerine. The
safe was packed with a fire-proofing
material between the plates. This
packing contained certain chemicals
which, when combined with the nitro
glycerine, gave chemical reaction that
produced so foul and overpowering a
smell that the burglars had to go away
and leave their plumber. This sug-
gests that those famous Chinese mill
tary stink pots" might be employed
TO good purpose against safe blowers.
