Shock Felt in Maine.

Portland. Me-, March 21.-As the
result of the publication of pictures
of ballet girls in an advertisement of
a musical comedy company, the Bidde
ford Daily Record is being boycotted
by some of the church people of that
city. The offending picture greatly
shocked several ministers of the town
and they Immediately lodged a COM
plant with the editor of the Record
which has in the past been known as
the organ of the church people and
reform forces. The editor was "-iled"
at what he considered unwarranted
interference and came back at the
parsons with an editorial in which
he declared that he was tired of being
bossed by "a gang of domineering
parsons and bigoted old hens and
henceforth would conduct his paper
to suit himself, so there. Many SER
mons were preached denouncilg the
paper and suggesting a boycott, but
the Record is still coming out every
day and the editor remains defiant.

sas and begin the publication of a
newspaper. The ex-senator still has
many friends in Kansas and upon his
return with his wife, who mas lived
in Ironton, Missouri since Burtons in
carceration there, will likely be given
an enthusiastic reception.
Prior to his downfall and disgrace
Senator Burton was one of the leaders
in the senate and was very popular in
Washington society. Few members
of the upper house surpassed him il
ability, but practically all were pos
Sessed of greater wtalth. He was a
poor man among millionaires, and it
is believed here that it was largely
for the purpose of retaining his posi-
tion among his associates of the SEN
ate that he resorted to practices
which ended his political career in
disgrace and disho1or.
Certain it is that Burton's political
career is ended. The Burton crowd
once a power in Kansas politics, has
found new idols. 1t may be that Bur
ton, having received his lesson, would
now make valuable public official,
but it is likely that he will never be
given the opportunity.
The moral-or immoral-of the Bur
tol case is expressed in the sage say
ing of a cynical correspondent who
has spent many years in Washington:
Graft is a game safely to be played
only by those possessed of great
wealth, great cunning and great infiu-
ence." Burton lacked the attributes
necessary to playing the game and as
result he was caught with the
goods on"

THE USUAL
WRECK

Altonito, Colo, Mar. 21.- East
bound Denver & Rio Grande passen-
ger train No. 116, running between
Durango and this place, left the
track at curve between Osier and
Toltec Gorge, three miles west of
here last night, and 35 passengers
had a miraculous escape from death.
The engine and tender rolled down
the embankment 200 feet to the bot
tom of a chasm. AS the coaches left
the track several turned completely
over and the rest alighted on their
sides. The engine crew jumped in Or
der to save their lives, and Engineer
Smith, of Chama, N. NJ, rolled down
the embankment He was overtaken
by the engine which passed over his
body in its wild flight to the foot of
the embankmelt. That he was not
crushed to death is almost incompre-
hensible. He is quite badly injured
but not fatally it is believed. All the
passengers were more or less hurt,
but none seriously.

Worlds Greatest in Gotham.

New York, March 21.-Pink lemon

on earth opened it's spring engage
ment in Madison Square garden this
afternoon. To the youngsters and
many of the older ones of the metro
polls the coming of the circus is as
great an event as in smaller cities
and towns and many staid business
men, bankers and brokers, who ''did't
care for it themselves but had to
take the children helped to fill the
garden at today's premiere.
Although the billboards mad prom
ised a return to the good old circus
of our daddies,' there was no lack
of daredevil, death defying'' feats
the great original thriller being an
adaptation to the Scandinavian win
ter sports of ski jumping. The noun
tain side on which the Norwegian
Ski jumpers perform their feats is
represented by 80 foot runway, and
the chasm over which they leap is sim
ulated by a great gaping opening be-
tween the runway and landing cusn-
ion Captain Karl Howelsol, the Nor
wegian champion who has been engag
ed to perform the hazardous feat thru
out the circus season, takes his posi-
tion on small platform at the upper
end of tae runway, some seventy
feet in the air. At signal he darts
down the declivity and strikes the up
ward curve. goes sailing through the
air and lands fairly upon his skis six
ty feet away. 1t is by all odds one of
the most spectacular and apparently
dangerous feats ever seen in an Am
erican circus, and its performance
brought a deafening round of applause
for the daring Norwegian.
The dip of Death performed by
Isabelle Butler, an American girl, in
an automobile, has been revived. 9th
erwise the performance is the same
old cfrcus,'' with little change from
previous years.

Reports From Cattle Market.

South St Joseph, Mo-, March IS
Arrivals of cattle at the several mar
lets continue to run quite freely and
include very large proportion of fair
to good medium weight steers such
as have been selling in range of
$4.90 a $500. Today's receipts on the
local market were rather above the
Monday average, and among them
were really more good fat heavy
steers than have been coming to this
market recently. Trade mad a very
slow start with indication that furth-
er reductions would be necessary how
ever, as the forenoon advanced, the
market put on a better appearance
and the entire steers contingent was
moved out at about steady prices.
The supply of butcher stock was com
paratively small, and the market had
active tone from start to finish at full
ly steady prices. No strictly good
feeding steers were on offer, but the
limited supply of stockers was picked
up at unchanged values. Supplies of
stock cattle on hands in the yards
held over from last week are quite
liberal, and the country does not seem
to be picking up.
The hog market is still on the to-
boggan, and slid down fully 71h a
10 cts. today with the bulk selling at
S6.52R "a 6.57k and few very prime
tops making $3.50. The slump in
prices during the past ten days has
been quite severe, amounting to 40 a
45cts, and it would seem that it would
soon had the effect of curtailing re-
ceipts. Hogs are coming very good
in quality, indicating that there are
a good many rips hogs ready to be
moved, and yet there is a feeling cur
rent that lighter supplies will be
moving before very long

but with the enormous volume of re-
ceipts recorded at all points may be
taken as an Indicator, there is liable
TO be a sharp slump in the near fu-
ture. Today the lambs sold steady
to 10cts. lower while sheep were
steady to firm, the proportion of the
latter being very small and prime
ewes sold at the top price of the sea

THAW CASE ADJOURNED
UNTIL FRIDAY MORNING

New York Mar, 20.-Tne Thaw case
was adjourned today "wednesday
until Friday morning, when Justice
Fitzgerald will determine the matter
of lunacy commission.
DIR. Allen McLane Hamilton was
the first witness called by Delmas.
Jerome objected to Hamilton testify
ing at this time on the ground that
the nature of the examination of
Hamilton was a reope1ing of the
whole case, as his evidence belonged
to the case in chief and not to the
rebuttal. After a long discussion be-
tween the attorneys and Justice Fitz-
gerald, the judge sustained the OBJ
lection of Jerome.
Delmas tried to bring out the tes-
timoly ne desired by other questions.
but Jerome interposed objections and
was sustained by Justice Fitzgerald.
During the discussion, the jury
was sent from the room and Jerome
made al impassioned speech in
which he said, "As 1 understand the
matter, DR.. Hamilton was originally
called by the defense, and is ready
to testify that in his opinion this de-
fendant is an insane man, that he
was of unsound mind when he COM
mitted the homicide, and that as ne
sits at that table today he is suffer
ing from mental disease known as
paraloia. a disease in which the suf-
ferer until the last stages of the dis
ease is capable of knowing the ma
ture and quality of his acts He said
that Thaw was Incapable of advising
his counsel, and that they were trying
an insane man. IF the real facts as
to the mental condition of this de-
fendant." he said, could be brought
out, the court would be shocked and
Mortified and would stop the trial
instantly
He said that he would show this
in five minutes if he were not bound
by the rules of evidence. In view of
the statement made by the District
Attorney" said Justice Fitzgerald, Il
now ask that l be given all the in
formation in possession of either
counsel, all the evidence as to de-
fendants present state of mind which
can be presented to the court. l do
this before the institution of proceed
