United States penitentiary at McNeifs
Island, died in the hospital, a victim of
consumption. His case was considered
hopeless from the outset, and his wife,
also a prisoner at McNeils, was per-
mitted to sit at her dying husbands
bedside. The sick mans piteous cries
for the wife led the prison officials to
relax rules, and the woman was
brought to Tacoma and taken to the
hospital From the time she entered
the sick room the husband became
quiet and remained so until death re-
lieved him of his sufferings. CarrOn

curement of French girls from abroad.

kANsANs BLOW UP GAS MAIN.
One Hundred Masked Men Dynamite
Line to Prevent Exporting.

INDEPENDENT, Kan, Dec. "a
One hundred masked men from In
dependence and Coffeyville, gathered
six miles southeast of this city at
midnight, and with heavy charges of
dynamite, blew up the Kansas Nat
ural Gas company's pipe line, where it
crossed the public highway.
The guardsmen of the gas COM
pany were compelled to step aside,
and as they made no resistance no vi
olence was done.
Workmen guarding tools were
driven away and tools We're destroyed.
The first shot barely blew out the
pipe, but the other two crossings
were badly wrecked.
General Manager Mcdowell and sew
eral attorneys for the gas company
and other representatives have been
in conference. The public is on tip
toe and many arrests are expected.
The Kansas Natural Gas company
is running a pipe line from the Kan
sas gas fields to supply Kansas City,
joplin and other Missouri towns. The
people of the gas belt have organized
and with the motto kansas gas for
Kansas" have resisted by every posi-
BILE legal means to stop the building of
the pipe line. They have been beaten
at every turn in the courts, and last
week the supreme court issued
sweeping injunction forbidding any
further interferences with the building
of the pipe line. Last night the peo-
pie took the matter into their own
hands.

BUILD PACKING PLANTS.
Stockmen At Portland Vote to In.
corporate With Large
Capital.

Portland, Or, Jan 14..-The prOpo-
sition to incorporate company of live
stock men for the purpose of establish
ing independent packing houses iii
stock centers of the country, to COM
pete with the packers combine and re-
store prices on live stock, was the all
absorbing topic of discussion in the
national live stock convention. By
unanimous vote the convention indoors
ed a resolution favoring the incorpora-
ton of such a company and the estab
lishment of the independent houses.
Steps will now be taken to raise
stock subscriptions to the amount of
81, 200, 900 for the purpose of capital
izing the corporation and placing it
upon financial footing to proceed
with the work of establishing plants
for the purposes outlined in the dis
cussOn.
The idea of the stockmen is to have
corporation composed entirely of
livestock raisers, who shall be share
holders in the company and directors
of its business affairs. The plants of
this company are to compete with the
combination plants, giving the produc-
er better price for his stock and
maintaining reasonable prices to the
consumer In turn these independent
packing houses are to be supported by
the livestock raisers against the COM
binatiOn.
Now that the association has indoors
ed the plan, which is entirely separate
from the organization, the matter of
interesting livestock men in the pro-
ject and of securing subscriptions to
raise the necessary capital will be
placed in the hands of committees to
be appointed for that purpose in the
stock raising states. Addresses made
ON the convention floor indicate that
the stockmen are ready and willing to
use their money and energy in unlim-
tied quantities to bring about the de-
sired result.
DenOunce Packers Combine.
The packers combine was denounced
as greedy combine, that had not
only taken the profits of the stock rails
er, but was now reaching out and try
ing to absorb his principal. The
unanimous opinion was that the time
has come when the stock raisers must
rise and overthrow this expressing foe
to the industry.
The two sessions of the day were de-
voted to addresses upon this and other
matters of importance to stockmen.
The morning session was devoted to re-
ports from various states as to their
respective live stock conditions.

The Village Parson.
Near yonder copse, where once the gar
den smiled
And still where many a garden flower
grows wild;
There, where a few torn shrubs the place
disclose,
The village preachers modest mansion
rose.
A man he was to all the country dear,
And passing rich with forty pounds a
Remote from towns, he ran his godly
race,
Nor e'er had chang'd, nor wish'd to
change, his place:
Unskillful he to fawn, or seek for power
BY doctrines fashion'd to the varying
hour;
Far other aims his heart had learn'd to
prize,
More skilled to raise the wretched than
to rise.
His house was known to all the vagrant
train.
He child their wand'rings, but relieved
their pain;
The long Remembered beggar was his
guest.
Whose beard descending swept his aged
breast;
The ruin'd spendthrift, now no longer
proud,
Claim'd kindred there, and had his claims
allow'd;
The broken soldier. kindly bade to stay,
Sat by his fire, and talked the night
away;
Wept DER mis- wounds, or. tales Of sorrow
done,
Shoulder'd his crutch, and show'd how
fields were won.
Pleased with his guests, the good man
learn'd to glow.
And quite forgot their vices in their woe
Careless their merits or their faults to
scan.
His pity gave ere charity began.
Thus to relieve the wretched was his
pride,
And even his failings lean'd to virtues
side;
But in his duty prompt at every call,
He watch'd and wept. he pray'd and felt
for all;
And, as a bird each fond endearment
tries.
To tempt it's new aedged offspring to the
skies;
He tried each art, reproved each dull
delay.
Allured to brighter worlds. and led the
way.
Beside the bed where parting life was
laid,
And sorrow, guilt. and pain, by turns
dismay'd.
The v'rend champion stood. At his
control,
Despair and anguish fed the struggling
soul:
Comfort came down the trembling wretch
to raise.
And his last falt'ring accents whispered
praise.
At church. with meek and unaffected
grace.
His looks adorn'd the venerable place.
Truth from his lips prevaird with double
sway.
And fools who came to scott remained t.
pray.
The service past. around the pious man
With ready zeal. each honest rustic ran
Even children follow'd. with endearine

And pluckd his gown. to share the good
mans smile.
His ready smile parents warmth ex

Their welfare pleased him. and theil
cares distrest:
To them his heart. his love. his griefs
were given.
But all his serious thoughts had rest il
heaven.
As some tall cliff that lifts its awfu
form.
Swells from the vale. and midway leaves
the storm.
Though round it's breast the rolling clouds
are spread.
Eternal sunshine settles on its head.

CLIMATE NOT CHANGING.
At Least the Weather Records Do Not
Indicate IL.

Indicate 1t.
The climate of any place Is depend
ent upon four causes, says J. w. Smith,
government weather forecaster. Dis
lance from the equator, distance from
the sea. elevation above the sea and
the prevailing winds. In the present
epoch Of the worlds history these con-
ditiOns have remained practically un-
changed. True, like seasons Of differ
ent years show marked fluctuations in
the amount Of precipitation and de-
grees Of heat, but it is not safe to par
ticularize one season, or one storm, or
one hot or cold day, as being the most
exceptional that has ever occurred, for
in nearly all cases the records will
show that its counterpart has existed
at some time in the past.
Man is prone to magnify any sensa-
tiion that has strongly appealed to
him. The apples Of boyhood's days
We're more rosy and juicy and the tarts
more palatable than those of today.
So were the winters SHOWS heavier;
so is the summer past the coolest that
ever occurred. A mans personal eQua-
ton enters largely into his estimate of
matters. and your physical condition
may have been such that a certain
spring season affected you most I'M
pleasantly. while to me its effect was
beneficial and the recollection Of it
pleasing. You would not. however. be
justified in saying that the winters for
merly never overlapped spring. and
that there had been radical change i'm
climate in the past fifty years.
One who closely follows the weather
from year to year must necessarily ar
rive at the paradoXical conclusion that
extremes and variability in weather
conditions are the rule. and that year
that followed the averages closely
would be notable exception. 1t is
unfortunate that instrumental data are
not available for much over 300 years.
but when there are eliminated from the
records all probable errors of indisput-
able fact that there has been no appre-
ciabl change in the seasons during
that time, and it is probably safe to
assume that there will be none until
there occurs some atmospheric or geo.
logical revolution as that by which the
greater portion of the earth was trans.
formed from an icy waste into a gar.
den of Eden.-Boston Globe.

THE USUAL ACTION.
House in Committee Votes to Cut Out
Civil Service Appropriation.


Washington. Jan. 14.-After lively
debate lasting three hours, the house
in committee of the whole, by vote
of rs to IS, struck out of the legisla-
tive, judicial and executive appropri-
alton bill the paragraph providing for
the salaries and expenditures of the
civil sevrice commission and clerks
employed under the commission. The
action was taken on motion of Mr..
Hepburn, of Iowa. He was supported
by both Republicans and Democrats,
both in speeches and the vote. Those
who spoke in opposition to the civil
service system as it now exists We're
Messrs. Hepburn, Grosvenor and
Bartlett, while among those speaking
for the service were Messrs. Cooper
and Gillette.
Notice was given by Mr.. Bingham,
in charge of the bill, that yea and
no vote would be demanded on the
provision striking out the appropria-
ton for expenses of the civil service
commission when the bill is presented
in the house.
Mr. Bartlett. of Georgia, taking up
the report of Fourth Assistant Post
master General Bristow, addressed
himself to the civil service system
referring to statements made by Mr..
Bristow Mr.. Bartlett charged that
in the appointment of the chief of the
supply division of the postoffice de-
partment, according to the report of
General Bristow, the civil service had
been violated.
Mr.. Cooper, of Wisconsin, said that
every one of the men under Indictment,
except one, in connection with the
postoffice frauds, went into service un-
der the spoils system. He read the
letter of explanation addressed by the
late Civil Service Commissioner Proc
tor to the postmaster general, in reply
to the statements contained in the Bris-
tow report relative to the appointment,
prefacing the reading with the state
ment that Mr.. Bristow had done a
great and heroic work, and that he
was absolutely fearless.
