with it to see if liquor was actually be-
ing sold in these places. The verified
list was sent back to me. Some of the
members of the council wanted me to
furnish proof that the prohibitory law
was being Systematically violated in
Topeka. I did not see fit to read this
list of joints in the council, but it
seems to me that the fact that such q
list can be made up and verified,
showing more than fifty places where
it is well known that luiquor is sold. is
reasonably good proof that the police

thy of a better cause than the one for

fighting. This seemed to amuse some Of
the men, and one of the officers ordered
the band to serenade the heroine. They
played Dixie Maryland, My Maryland,
and The Star-Spanged Banner, in front
of her house. Mary still waved the flag,
and one of the soldiers, VINO did not look
gently upon her, as did his more gallant
comrades, came up and struck the slender
STAFF with his bayonet. The flag fell, and
he trampled on it. An officer stepped
out of the line and reproved the man
for what he had done, whereupon COM
rade of Mary's pulled a small silken
flag out. of her voluminous sleeve and
handed 1t to her. This flag she waved

Truth About Barbara Fritchie.

From the Era Magazine.
The house of Barbara Frtehie was not
ON the line of march, and it was, there
fore. highly improbable that any general,
Union or Confederate, would advance
against it for the purpose of shooting
either her or her flag. War, in Septem-
Der, 1862 was too serious an affair to
waste shot on old ladies who lived on side
streets The real heroine of the flag in
cident was a young woman--a Mrs Mary
Quantrille, who lived on Patrick street.
According to the testimony of reliable
persons who lived in Frederick during the
war, this Mary Quantrille was one of
those young and ardent patriots who go
out of their way to shake the flag in the
face of the enemy. That crazy Mary
Quantrlle,' they were wont to say, will
get us all killed vet, or sent over the
line, for her flag waving When the
Confederate marched into Frederick in
September, 1862, and the wise ones drew
in the starry banners, hiding them from
lawless hands, May ran out on the porch,
waving small flag in the face of the
passing troops. One Of the soldiers jok
ingly called to her that he wanted the flag
to give to General Lee. Whereupon Mary

GERONIMO DOOMED
If He Ever Puts His Foot Inside
Arizona.


Mrs C. r. Miller in Lesies Weekly.
Only those who have visited Arizona and
spoken with the men owning ranches and
herding cattle in that vast territory can
fully realize the wisdom of President
Roosevelts refusal to grant freedom to
Geronimo, the Apache chief Not many
months ago on an Arizona ranch some
one mentioned the name of Geronimo, and
l asked whether he should not be set
free. The question came like thun-
derbolt from clear sky, and the calm
faces of the men suddenly assumed a
look of intense hatred, and as a woman
caught the question she ceased to sing
and drew her child nearer to. her bosom.
There was moments silence. and then
came the answer, delivered in a tone I
shall never forget:
Release him; release him by all means,
and give him one hour In Arizona. 1t is
a crime to let that devil die in his bed.
That religion business is a sham, because
the old fiend will no more change his
heart than the leopard will his spots Let
me tell you his last crime around here,
and then, while cold chils were chasing
each other up and down our spinal col
umns, we listened with horror to the mans
story. AT ranch two or three hundred
miles from here, Geronimo and some of
his warriors surprised the ranchman's
wife who was alone with her three little
children. They fndishly tortured that
poor mother to death in manner too
horrible to repeat. Not content with this,
they seized the frightened innocent chill
dren and left each one impaled alive on
the hooks which were used for drying
beef. The father returned home in the
evening and found one little girl still
breathing. She lived long enogh to tell
the story. and died in the arms of the
half-crazed man. Some of that woman's
male relatives still live. Oh yes; give
him his freedom by all means, and send
him to Arizona"

THE LIFE WORTH LIVING

Lk"HE life which is truly worth liv-

TOO often the man who consecrates
himself to the nobler purpose has been
what the world called failure has been
led away into captivity by pitiess foes,
has died at the stake amid fortunes.
But, like the Indian brave, such war
rior has never feared the stake nor the
tortures.
Like the Indian brave, such a warrior
desplses those who torment him, and
amid the flames In which he dies his death
song rises to thrill the world
I have fought a good fight. Never

as God gave me to see 1t, l was always
