THEY TALK IT OVER.
Prohibitionists Well Pleased With
Showing in Election.

New York, Nov. IA dinner has
been given by the Prohibition party of
the city of New York to the defeated
candidates. Nearly every prominent
person in the state organization and
several national leaders were present.
Oliver w. Stewart, chairman of the
national committee, said according to
his most conservative estimate the
vote for DR.. Swallow, the presidential
an increase over the 1900 vote, the
largest previous vote for the party,
which was 269,00O. He predicted that
at some time in the future new force
will appear in national politics in the
shape of a party that has a great
moral issue, of which he declared
there is none greater than prohibition.

at her home here. She is 81 years
old, and her bad health has resulted
in mental weakness. Last Saturday
morning at o'clock she left her
home in her stocking feet, and re-
manned out in the cold two or three
hours A nurse was brought from
Atchison to take care of Mrs. Benton,
who has been living alone, although
Mrs. Polly Tucker lived in rooms in
the same house. Mrs. Benton has al
ways been a very independent woman,
and for years has insisted on living
alone. Mrs. Benton came to this
county from Kentucky in 1854 with
her husband, the late Colonel Benton
who died eighteen years ago. They
ran a boarding house in Atchison for
time, and Mrs. Benton was noted far
and wide as a cook. Later they re-
moved to this town, and operated a
hotel which became famous

TO MAKE CARS
MORE STABLE
RAILROADS CONFRONTED WITH
NATIONAL PROPOSITION TO
REMODEL THEIR COACHES
It Is Asserted That Death Rate In
Sleepers Is Much Less Than It Is In
Other Kinds of Cars Bill of Rep.
resentative Esch.

Washington, d. C.-Under the sup
ervision of the interstate commission
a bill is being prepared which, if it
becomes a law, will compel railroad
companies to build stronger coaches
and other passenger ears, with the
exception of sleepers. The bill will
be introduced by Representative Esch,
of Wisconsin, and will provide that
all coaches and cars for passenger SER
vice shall be constructed with steel
sleepers and steel sills.
The American Railway Association
has been asked to submit details
which would be practical from a rail-
road standpoint, and every car taken
to have the measure such as will effect
greater safety in construction. Be-
fore beginning the draft of the bill
Representative Esch made long in
vestigation, going throughly into the
history of car construction. He con-
ferred also with government officials
WIZ GA pISoSCi TIC OplIlou tIllt SoulC-
thing should be done to prevent the
further construction Of light railway
coaches which either telescope or
break like egg shells in the event of a
wreck, thereby causing a large death
and casualty rate.
1t is asserted that the immunity
from death and injury which passen-
gers i'll sleeping cars enjoy is due
largely to steel underframe construc-
ton. and it is understood that the
construction Of the present-day sleep
ing car will be taken as standard.
In this event all day coaches, smok-
ing cars, buffet cars, chair and par
Ior cars will have to be built with ex-
tension steel beams and possibly be
provided with steel platforms and
non-telescope devices.

Davenport S Tribute.

Nashville, Tenn. The Banner pub
fishes cartoon entitled 1.-THE Silent
Hour" and it is tribute of Homer
Davenport to Senttor Mark Hanna,
Mr.. Davenport expresses great regret
for having drawn the famous dollar
mark cartoon and says that he did an
honest man very great injustice.
Mr.. Davenport was deeply moved to
learn of the serious illness Of Senator
Hanna and the cartoon in the Banner
Is, voluntary expression of his sor-
row and sympathy. The carton rep
resents the sick senator on his couch
and beside it kneels the seraphic form
of the late President Mckinley with
his head bowed upon the hand Of his
stricken friend. At the foot of the
bed stands Uncle Sam with his hand
over his eyes and bowed in great grief.
Upon the floor rests floral tributes
from the North, South, East and West.
The sentiments entertained by Mr..
Davenport we're written by himself
and appear under the caption as fol-
lows: ''Senator Mark Hanna is the
best example Of what I have frequent
ly said that no honest man need fear
cartoons. He has been viciously and
at times brutally cartooned since 1896
and has rested in the lash of the car
toonist till today. He is the strong
est man in American politics.

loved by the American people almost
