QUANTRELL GANG MAY BE
TRIED FOR OLD GRIMES

Lawrence, Kas, Aug. GA move
ment has been started here growing out
of the annual reunion of the Ouantreil
raid survivors held yearly at Independ-
ence, Mo, to have the men who were
indicted for the famous raid brought
here for trial, because of their alleged
infiammatory utterances.
Nov. IS, 1868, the grand jury returned
twenty-three indictments against the
raiders for murder in the first degree.
Under the law these indictments do not
outlaw and now many citizens of Law
renee want them revived. They want
to put the question up to Governor Folk,
whether or not he will send them back
for trial
AT the recent reunion at independence
one man was quoted as saying that his
only regret was that the raiders had not
wiped out the whole town." There is
an Indictment on file here against this
man. Judge S. A. Riggs drew the in
dictments at the time He said he was
ready to assist in rigorous prosecution.

STRIKE I'M MINllEA OILS D
MAY OCCUR EARLIER

Minneapolis, Aug s Minneapolis
Typothetae are preparing 10 take the
bull BY the horns on Oct. i, Of the Min
|neapolis Typographical Union decides to
strike as soon as the present contract
between the Typothetae and the printers
expires. No trouble is expected until
that time as both sides are bound BY an
agreement, and the side breaking faith
would at once lose the support and con
fidence Of the public.
1t is believed BY many of the large
that the outbreak in Chicago
has more back Of it than appears Oil the
surface. The Chicago contract expired
Aug i, but the actual break did moi
come until over three weeks later. II
is thought that possibly the Chicago erl-
|ployers had a reason III posting open
shop notices, and bringing about the
formal break as soon as possible The
national typographical organization had
planned to start its strike Jan. /, in all
parts of the country. BY forcing the
strike, which was sure to come, the
Chicago employers will have their pick
|of the non4union printers now available
I'll oyer the country The Detroit con
tract expired AT the same time, and il
His expected that there will soon be 4
break there for the same reason.

BABY PARADE.

Asbury Park, N. J., Aug. a1.-The
annual baby parade, which forms the
principal feature OF the carnival week.
is thing Of the past Never before
has there been such large number of
babies in the parade and never was the
display more attractive from every
point OF view. Thousands of visitors
had come from all parts OF the east
to swell the large crowds already here
and as there is no possibility of finding
room for the enormous crowd in the
hotels here, most of the visitors will
be compelled to leave tonight.
The number Of entries had reached
nearly 500, but the actual number was
somewhat less than that. The number
OF beautiful children was unusually
large and the judges whose task it was
to award the prizes had very difficult
task before them. 1t will be evening
before the judges have completed their
work. In addition to the handsome
souvenir pins to be distributed there
will be fifty loving cups to be award
ed the prize babies of the parade.
Some OF the loving cups donated rep
resent value of $50 to $Ioo.

much need of explanation as their
stellar offspring. Thus, even If we
grant the exact truth OF these theories,
the advance towards an explanation OF
the universe remains miserably slight
Man is but microscopic being rela-
lively to astronomical space, and he
lives on puny planet circulating
round star Of inferior rank. Does
it not, then, seem as futile to imagine
that he can discover the origin and
tendency OF the universe as to expect
housefy to instruct US as to the
theory OF the motions Of the planets? !?
And yet, so long as he shall last. he
will pursue his search, and will no
doubt discover many wonderful things
which are still hidden. We may in
deed be amazed at all that man has
been able to find out, but the immeas-
urable magnitude of the undiscovered
will throughout all time remain to
humble his pride. Our children's chill
dren will still be gazing and marvel
ling at the starry heavens, but the rid
die will never be read"

NEITHER JAPS NOR RU USSIANS
ENTHUSE OVER PEACE

Portsmouth, N. H, Aug. 3r.-Every
anomalous situation exists as to the
impression created by the conclusion
Of peace. While the outside world
applands, in Japan there is evidently
great disappointment in the terms,
and in Russia, where it would seem
that there should be universal rejoicing
over the great diplomatic victory Mr..
iWitte has won, the government seems
to- have received it coldly. 9s
With the people it will make Mr..
Witte q great and popular figure and
add to his laurels, but at court, eyi-
IDENTIFY the great victory that Mr.
Wittc has achieved makes It all the
more bitterly resented.
1t is an open secret that when the
emperor, appointed Mr. Witte chief
plenipot otentiary, the military party
expected him to fail They did not
want peace and it was freely predicted
in st. Petersburg, when Mr.. Witte left
that he had been given an impossible
mission. They expected him to tail IN
the negotiations or to make a bad
peace, and either would have spelled
political ruin. Instead, upon the very
terms upon which the emperor told Mr.,
Meyer he would make peace and upon
which the military party did not be-
lieye it possible for peace to be nego-
tiated, Mr.. Witte succeeded Ia secir-
ing the treaty, honorable and under
circumstances, favorable to Russia
This has evidently only exhausted
his enemies here, and intrigue Is again
