He WANTS A DEPOT.
w. H. Wycl1on Says His Town Is Being
Neglected.

W. H. Wyckoff, representative in the
legislature from the Thirty dis
trict, has again come to the state board
Of railroad commissioners with demand
for a depot at Wyckoff station, to re-
place one burned about a year ago.
Wyckof is a station on the NJ. K & T.
a few miles from Burlington. Mr.
Wyckoff SAYS that the Katy officials
promised to rebuild this depot but have
done nothing. Some time ago he wrote
a letter to the general superintendent
of the road, in which he said:
1.-THE patrons of your road only ask
for a small structure, just to shelter
them from the rain, wind and freezing
weather. and not costing hut a trifle.
We do not ask for a chimney as we do
not want stove in it; just a place to
wait and not suffer in all kinds Of
weather. I have been a faithful patron
and have shipped thousands of carloads
of grain, hay and flour from both
Wyckoff and Burlington, and besides I
feel that the contract has not been lived
up to as agreed when station was first
established"
Mr.. Wyckoff says he never received
any reply to this letter so it is to be
supposed that the company decided not
to replace the burned station.

unafraid and unabashed upon your sew
en-terraced summit and look down and
teach-unrebuked. You can tell the
world how you got there. It is what
they all do. You shall never get tired
of telling by what delicate arts and
deep moralities you climbed up to that
great place. You Will explain the pro-
cess and dwell on the particulars with
senile rapture. I have been anxious to
explain my own system this long time,
and now at last I have the right.
Il have achieved my 20 years in the
usual Way-by sticking strictly to a
scheme of my life which would kill
anybody else. It sounds like an exag-
geration, but that is really the common
rule for attaining old age. We have no
permanent habits until we are 40. Then
they begin to harden, presently they
petrify, then business begins.
"Since I was years old I have sell
dom taken a dose of medicine and have
still seldom needed one. But up to z
I lived exclusively on allOpathic medi-
cines. Not that L needed them, for 1
don't think I did; it was for economy.
My father took a drug store for a debt
and it made cod liver oil cheaper than
the other breakfast foods. L was the
first Standard Oil trust. I had it ali.
BY the time the drug store was eX-
hausted my health was established and
there has never been much the matter
with me since.
ct have never taken any exercise,
except sleeping and resting, and I
never intend to take any. Exercise is
loathsome, and it cannot be of any
benefit when you are tired. I was
always tired.
ct have lived a severely moral life.
But it would be a mistake for other
people to try it. or for me to recon-
mend it. Very few would succeed.
You have to have a perfectly colossal
stock of morals and you cannot get
them on a margin; you have to have
the whole thing, and put them in your
box Morals are an requirement
like music, like a foreign language.
like piety, poker, paralysis-no man
is born with them. I wasn't, myself.
I started poor.

WHEN JOHN |. COMES.
Veteran Prize Fighter Is Doing Well in
Vaudeville.

John L. Sullivan, once the idol of the
| prize fighting world will be in Topeka,
to begin four days engagement at
the Auditorium, opening week after
next, under the auspices of the local
/ Aerie of Eagles.
The following clipping from New
York paper concerns his engagement
in that city at a recent date:
1T was Sullivan night with frills at
the Broadway theater. John L. mono
Iogued and boxed. two of his young
namesakes fought and won, another did
some light tapping and majority OF
the large Sullivan family in Butte heard
and saw it all and went home at mid
night well pleased. Aside from the ap-
pearance Of "Jawn' and the six boxing
turns there were a number of vaude-
Vile numbers well worth the price Of
admission. But that it was not the lat
ter the audience came to see was made
boisterOusly evident by the frequent
calls, particularly from the gallery, to
bring on the big fellow
Storms of applause met him when
he did appear trussed up in evening
toys and with cane and gloves. He ac-
knoWledged the stormy salute more
gracefully than would be expected from
a man that has taken on as much hesh
as has the former worlds famous cham
pion And it cannot be denied, even TO
Sullivan's Warmest friends that he has
a remarkable front extension and car
ries it well. That is a lot. Then ne
talks we'll with his big robust voice,
filling the house and giving much the
same expression of strong, hearty good
fellowship that is felt in the grasp OF ms
monstrous paw. His stories are large
" from his life and each has Doint
that brings a laugh. One on himself
is typical Of the big heart of the man.
It recalls the time when he was show
ing with company in the south He
gets off some bravado remark about
cleaning up two or three DULLES at once
in defense of a poor helpless woman.
Then there is the usual pause for
cheers. etc, to climax which some gal
lery god with a piping voice that can
be heard in the wings yells:
81 you're good, but you're rotten
John tells that with a gusto and alughs
with his audience.
His boxing stunt is saved for the
end of the performance. It consists OF
three short but spicy rounds with Jim
Mccormick, his sparring partner who
appears almost as able to take and give
as fast as the old London prize ring
champion, willing, however, to get the
same line into the exchanges that mark
Tohn LIS work There is not dull
moment while these two are together.

Harry J. Bone. the new United States
district attorney, has not yet arrived
in Topeka though he was expected last

Mr.. Bone has not yet indicated who
his assistant will be but the indications
are that the place will go to Charles a.
Maeaw of Topeka. Mr.. Magaw is a
young man who has made q good rec
ord as a lawyer and added to this is
fhe fact that he is a close personal
friend of Mr.. Bone and was one of his
most enthusiastic supporters in his con-
test for the position. The only other
candidate who has been mentioned IN
connection with the office of assistant
IL Dan 0Haner Of Emporia. who was
stenographer during Mr.. Lamberts
term as district attorney. It is conceded
that Mr.. BfcKeever, the present ASSIST
ant is to be displaced and a clean sweep
made in the office.

but an American could have written.

small list which are written for no par

of admirable work that he has done.

When Mark Twain arose to speak he
could not proceed for several minutes
on account of the cheers that were Civ

the decent reserves which have Op-
pressed you for generation and stand
