HEARD AT THE THROOP.
Travelling Men Speak in High Praise
of Topeka

Travelling Men Speak in High Praise
of Topeka
A group OF travelling men at the
Throop last night agreed that Topeka
was one of the most up-to-date cities
in the country. One of them said, It
can generally tell whether a town is up
with the times by noticing the brand Of
cigars that is the most popular If the
leading store sells more N.Fadsworth
Bros Chicos than they do Of any other
cigar I put down the residents of that
city as progressive and up-to-date and
DESTROYS of the good things of life"
Wadsworth Bros Chicos are sold in
Topeka by Geo. w. Stansfield. druggist,
632 Kansas avenue, Topeka, and the man
at the cigar case told me that he was
selling twice as many Chicos as of any
other two kinds. This shows that To-
peka smokers want a good Havana filled
cigar that burns freely. Is mild and
pleasant and makes an enjoyable smoke.
Wadsworth Bros, Chico is the only
cigar I know of costing less than twenty
cents that fills the bill. "Just see how
fragrant it is he said as he pulled a
lot of smoke over the group.
Chicos sell for but five cents. even
though. as our friend the travelling man
said, 1t Is the favorite with those who
want the best cigar they can get for
their money, 1880.

Gown Worn by an Emporia Baby Once
Worn by President Harrison.

Emporia. Kan, Sept. 19.-Marianna-
the 16-moEths-old daughter of DR.. and
Mrs. Horace Whittlesey of Emporia, is
the owner of a dress worn by William
Henry Harrison. once president of the
United States, when he was baby in
old Virginia. William Henry Har-
rison was born in 1873. Miss Ellen
Windsor, who was t'Tippecanoe' Har-
rison's nurse, was given the dress by
the mother of the ex-president. She,
in turn, gave it to her friend, Mrs
Chaplin, for her baby to wear. Years
afterward Mrs. Chaplin passed it on
to her friend, Mrs J. c. Whittlesey,
and Horace Whittlesey was the next
baby to wear the little garment Mrs.
Horace Whittlesey dressed little Mari
anna in the famous frock the other
day, but she didn't allow her to make
mud pies while she had it on-in fact,
she wore il only half an hour, and the
dress was then put carefully away.
The pretty little garment is made
with low neck and short sleeves, and is
one piece from neck to hem; it is
shirred at the top, the hem finished in
genuine Mount Mellick embroidery,
and French knots are scattered over
the dress. The material is the finest
linen.

Il cannot see how anyone can posi-

are some big Democratic gains in some

claims that the Democrats are making
in some of these counties is that they

David Overmyer is the father Of the an
ti-paSS movement in Kansas. OVeTuyeT' s
first move against the free pass was in
the special session of 1886. while he was
a member OF the Kansas house of repre-
sentatives- During that session the sem
ate adopted a railroad bill and sent it
down to the house. Overmyer promptly
moved an amendment that was substan-
TALLY as follows:
way. company, or any officer, agent or
elnploye OF any railway company, TO tur-
nish to any person any transportation OF
property terms other and different
from the terms upon which the same
kind of transportation is furnished to ev-
cry other person"
Overmyer's amendment was looked up
on as a first class joke by the legisla-
tors. The statesmen enjoyed themselves
greatly at the expense of the crank
who had presumed to attack the free
pass. The speaker finally ruled that the
amendment was not german to the bill
and thus could not be considered Over
myer took an appeal, and the house sus-
tanned the decision of the speaker.
But the anti-pass agitator was not to be
discouraged by parliamentary technical
tiles He gave his amendment title and
introduced It as an independent bill, ask
ing consent that it be read for the first
time and put on the calendar for a sec
ond reading. Amid roars of laughter the
house granted the request. Overmyer
promptly followed up his advantage and
asked that the bill be put on the calendar
for third reading, subject to amendment
and debate But the members of the
house suddenly decided that the joke was
not as good as they had first thought
They stopped laughing and turned Over
myers request down.
Then Overnyer made a speech on his
bill In that speech he embodied nearly
every argument against the free pass that
later agitation has brought out When
the roll was called only 2 members voted
for the Overmyer bill The other u mem
bers were against If. The vote was taken
on February IS, 1896.

BUSINESS IS RETARDED
Small Fire in the Green Front Saloon
Results in Temporary Loss of
Trade to the Proprietor.

Business operations were interrupted
for a time yesterday afternoon IN the
Green Front saloon, 152 West South
Temple street, until the fire depart
ment responded to an alarm and ex-
tiDgufshed a small blaze which threat
ened the place. The bar was badly
charred and the curtain whose duty it
was 20 exclude the view from the
street was burned.
Guy Cappuccio, the proprietor,
raised the trap-door behind the bar and
went into the basement to put another
leg OF beer on tap. When he got
down there he was unable TO see to
make the connections and called to
the bartender to bring a light A can
die was handed to Cappuccio, As he
came out of the cellar after connect
ing up the pipes the flame came in
contact with the curtain and set fire
TO it. It blazed up and set fire to an
overcoat hanging on the wall, which
was also destroyed
The firemen used a hand chemical
machine in putting out the fire. The
partition between the bar and the CT
gar case was partly destroyed. The
damage amounted to about So. Bust
ness was retarded until a new curtain
could be procured to shut out the view
from the street. The result of this was
q distinct loss to Cappuceio.

that the conference would terminate
