the 18th and 18th of June OF 1864 and both
armies had established their lines in

Yankees were constantly popping at each

boys took their ramrods and bored small
holes through the embankment TO shoot

Kansas Congressmen's
New Years Call

at Wichita And now Representa- tive
Murdoch is ready to admit that there are
some men and women in society in spite
of all its shams and make-belieyes
At the White House there was an echo
OF the late contest over the federal judge
ship When the President met Repre-
sentative Phil Campoell, he asked ::
Where's the other one?' He referred to
Representative Murdoch. The two Kan
sas congressman appeared so often to-
gether at the White House in the interest
of Judge Pollock that when the Presi-
Cent meets one Of them he is surprised il
the other is not around within hai:ing dis
lance
The President tossed a bouquet to Rep
reseatative Scott at the White House on
New Years day, which probably viii help
him 10 forget that he was one of six or
seven other congressman who were ig-
nored in the appointment of a federal
Judge The President gave the congress-
man-at-large q hearty hand-clasp, and
asked him TO step out OF the line for a
moment. saying to Mrs Roosevelt who
stood beside him: This is one of my

Representative Scott whether he ever
makes any federal judges or not.
Talking about bouquets, Representative
Murdoch was the recipient of the most

Writing from Washington TO the Topeka
Journal, Leslie Wallace says:
Senator Long, Representative Murdoch,
Representative Scott and Representative
Campbell, gorgeously arrayed in silk hats
and frock coats, made their New Years
calls together. They started and con-
cluded the day at the home of the speak

Representative Murdoch, who thinks
most society is a sham and 2 delusicn.
started out with all his bristles in a per-
perdicular position. and confidently hoped
that he would find much to criticize. At
Secretary Roots home the party met
General Chaffee. who takes command of

membered il. He wondered if Charlie
would care TO remember it, ard decided
that he wouldn't. He concluded that IN
this atmosphere OF extravaganza and
magnifcence. the blush Of shame would
mount to the proud army officers brow
at the mention Of his name. But the
Kansas congressman wanted to find out,
SO when he was presented 10 the general
he told him of MS acquaintance with the
Kansas relative. And much to his as

Trick Of the Quicksands.

John Walters and Frank Williams pass
ed through the city today enroute to
Peru. Kansas. They started By team
from Custer City, and relate a most thrill
ing experience in the South Canadian
river, which is admitted to be the most
treacherous stream in the United States,
on account of its DOGGY quicksands. When
they reached the river it was early in the
night time, but as the moon was shining
brightly they concluded to ford the river
and camp on the opposite bank. They
were ignorant of the dangerous features
OF the river, otherwise when once in it
they would have driven straight across
without stopping, all parties do who
are familiar with the river.
However when about half way across
the broad stream they paused to let their
team rest. but when they attempted to
start on, they discovered the team could
not move the wagon. Both men climbed
out of the wagon into the water which
was waist deep and attempted to start
the wagon, but in vain, as the wheels by
this time had settled to the hubs in the
quicksGnd.
The horses were unhtched from the
taken to the shore, where the two men
built a fire to dry their clothing, and
canped for the night, intending to get
their wagon out next morning. as they
were tce chilled to work any longer that
night.
But when morning arrived and they
looked out into the river for their wagon
it was gone. Naturally they supposed
some person had discovered it there in
the river that night and hauled it out.
AS there We're no tracks of il coming out
on either side of the river. they mounted
their horses and started to ford the river
to the opposite bank. Arriving in mid
stream they discovered one corner off
the wagon box protrudinS above the bot
tom of the river, all the rest of 1t having
been swallowed up by the treacherous
quicilsand.
OF course they made no further effort
to secure their wagon. but purchased
another enc at a town not far away. and
resumed their iourney.-Blackwel News.

Dana Gibson

Wichita has an artist in Harry a. Mann.
Though but sixteen years of age. his
work with pen and ink cannot be distin-
guished, except possibly by connoiseur,
from that of Charles Dana Gibson.
Persons no have seen some of the pen
and ink sketches made by this sixteen
year-old boy, hesitate to believe that such
a young lad who has never taken les
son in this art, has much ability in this
line of work. Many who are great admir-
ers Of Gibson's pictures and who have
studied many OF them carefully. say that
the work of young Mann is identical with
, that of Gibson.
Mann is also becoming proficient in the
art of sketching at sight and although he
has but recently taken up this line of the
work. he shows much ability. 1t IS the
intention Of the lads father. b. L. Mann.
to send copy of his sons work 10 Glib
son soon, and If possible get the great
artist to pass on it. In the meantime, he
has made arrangements to have the boy
take a course of lessons under compe-
tent instructor.
Harry Mann was born in New York six
teen years ago. He has lived in this city
with his parents for fifteen years. B. L.
Mann, the boys father. is a Hungarian
by birth. He has a place of business in
the eighth block on East Douglas avenue.
where many sketches made by his son
are on exhibition.
The Mann boy commenced sketching
and drawing when he was but q baby.
He has kept at il continually ever since.
81 have sent him to the public schools
and the business college," said Mr.. Mann.
and he has graduated from all, but that
doesn't interest him. He has neither eyes
nor ears for anything but sketching and
drawing. He is wrapped up in the one
thing.
