SHE sTIRs UP A GERMAN.
Myra NIcHenry scoIds Wichita Street
Car Smoker.

Wichita, Kan. Sept. 1.-The Beacon
says:
Myra McHenry had war with Ger
many yesterday evening about seven
O'Clock and the fight resulted in a
draw.
The temperance crusader was going
north on stock yards car No. 49, AT
Second street a well rounded specimen
of the standardization type-mostly
German-boarded the car. He was
farmer from Beaver county, visiting
in the city Being unfamiliar with the
rules and regulations, he took seat
near the middle of the car, and con-
tinued enjoying a cigar
Myra McHenry was on one OF the
rear seats, where smoking is allowed
She wasn't smoking, however
When she saw that our German
friend" was smoking, she "butted in,
as is her custom.
I'm back in your seat" she said to
the visitor, tapping him on the shout
der in her familiar way. You get
back where smokers belong and III sit
here
The unexpected interference raised
the Germans ire He had only fair
command of English when in good hu-
NOR, but in anger only the mother
tongue would respond.
"Geh mir veg, du alte hex" he sput-
tered, blowing rings of smoke into her
face.
Myra failed to comprehend but she
continued her abuse of the smoker. The
other occupants of the car enjoyed the
dialogue very much, though unable to
catch the drift of the Germans remarks.
OF his earnestness there could be no
doubt for great drops of perspiration
trickIed down over his forehead, his
face was red as a boiled lobster and
he sputtered his native tongue like a
traction engine at high pressure.
AS he was unable to make any i'm
preston upon the voluble Myra, he fin
ally arose and went out on the back
platform, to finish his smoke in peace
Ninth street was the end of his journey
on the car, and instead of getting off
the back end, he walked toward the
front stopping at Mrs. McHenry's seat
to blow parting puff of smoke into her
face and give her a farewell shot in
his choicest German.

lost rs points, ,Amalgamated Copper IL
points and Smelling "a points.
FeveriSh rallies brought out more stocks
and prices went lower all around. Losses
of a point or over were numerous with
grain carriers, metal. car equipment and
eastern stocks showing the most weak
ness. The market showed a better tone at
II O'Clock, Reading and Amalgamated
Copper recovering a point
Prices recovered strongly on light trad
ing and earlier losses were quite general
ly reduced to small fractions. Union Pa
cific made a full recovery and U. S. Steel
preferred sold above yesterdays close
Great Northern preferred gained a point
and Northern Pacific 21z points. The mar
ket weakened again sharply before noon
Bonds were irregular at noon.
Supporting orders for Union Pacific
stopped the midday selling. The market
then became semi-stagnant and feature
less until o'clock when it dropped again
on increased offerings. st. Paul, Union
Pacific, Reading and Amalgamated Cop
per led the decline.
Selling was not long continued and the
market gradually hardened, some stocks
selling at the top figures of the day. Prac-
tically all of the important stocks ruled on
parity with last night. The Wisconsin
Central stocks advanced ~ points and
Great Northern preferred 21s points.

Stock Market Was Feverish,
Showing Numerous Loses.

Chicago, Sept. 1.-WHEAT-Wet weather
in the west was the chief factor in the
firm wheat market today. Other inf1u-
ences were higher prices at Liverpool and
reports of cholera in Germany. Trading
was exceedingly light, offerings being
small. December opened 1sc higher, at
size, sold off TO S07sc, and then rallied to

For December the highest point of the
day was reached at S1ssMS115c. The mar
ket closed firm with December up to size.
CORN-A large decrease in Argentine
shipments caused firm tone in the corn
market. Commission houses were active
bidders for December and May. December

a time held within the opening range.

WARNER PLEASED THEM
Missouri Senator Well Received at
Baxter Springs.

Baxter Springs, Kan, Sept. 1.-Sen-
atOr Warner was speaker mere at the
reunion. Senator Warner spoke for
more than an hour, with the mercury
standing aboVec100 degrees. To those
listening, and there must have been
5000, the heat was oppressive, but
Senator Warner seemed not to mind it.
He spoke in his usual vigorous man
ner, pacing the floor from one side of
the great platform to the other. At
times he had his audience on the
verge of tears, to be followed by
humorous remarks that brought
headed veterans and their wives went
forward and crowded about him, al
most smothering him with their con-
gratulations. Senator Warner said, in
beginning, that he had not expected
the entire population of Missouri, Kan
sas, Arkansas and Indian territory at
this reunion, as was apparently the
case. But he said, you all look
like Missourians to me and no higher
compliment could be paid a body of
men and women
1t will be remembered that the Kan
saS Legislature adopted a resolution
last winter indorSing Major Warner
for United States senator. Referring
to this, he said:
You good people of Kansas have
already made me feel at home in your
state whose legislature Endorsed me for
United States senator before my own
state elected me-
Senator Warmers references to the
old soldiers who are passing on rap
idly were touching. He eulogized the
bravery of the soldiers of the south.
Senator Warner then referred to the
act of Governor Hoch in having the
battleship Kansas christened with
water.
| 81 heard that your governor used
water from the John Brown spring
Then came along some fellow with
no respect for traditions who declared
that the John Brown spring never eX-
listed. Now I suppose some other fell
| low will arise and destroy the ira
dition about John Brown having q
little Injun, by proving that he never
had an Injun at all.
But the people of Kansas are never
without issues. If there is a people
who make issues quicker than any
other, you Kansans are that people
I glory in that with you. There is
nothing too big for Kansas. You are
not afraid of the railroads, the trusts
or the untold millions of John D
! Rockefeller. Once aroused, you fol
low your idea of duty unflinchingly.
| glory in all of this with YOU
Senator Warner said he sympa
thized with Rockefeller, for with al
his riches Rockefeller is the poores
man on earth. He criticised the hood
Ter and bribe-giver vigorously and
closed with a strong peroration eulo
giving the old soldiers.
