Bishop Leonidas Polk, a Confederate
general, was one day riding In the rear
Of the line of march. A straggier
whose rough shoes had blistered his
feet was sitting by the roadside when
the general came up.
What company do you belong tor
asked the general.
1.-THE Fourteenth louisiana" replied
the straggler.
well, sir, you are long way FROM
your command"
The stranger, not knowing the gen.
eral, inquired, What company do you
belong to-"
The general answered. 81 am a cap
tain in the army of the Lord
well, SIR" retorted the straggler, 81
should say you are long way from

WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE.
Wisdom sits alone,
Topmost in heaven; she Is its light its
God,
And in the heart of man she sits as high,
Though groveling eyes forget her often

Seeing but this worlds idols. The pure
mind
Sees her forever. and in youth we come
Filled with her sainted revishment and
kneel,
Worshiping God through her sweet altar
fires,
And then is knowledge good.

NIENDEz's GREAT PITCHING.
''ISIacI< Diamond" of Cuban Stars Has
Made a Fine Record.

New York Dec. 30.-Reports of the
recent wonderful work of Mendez, the
BLACK Diamond" of the Cuban Stars,
have just reached this city. Mendez.
who has been pitching in games in
Havana, makes a trip to the United
States every summer and is well
known in New York. Nat Strong
yesterday sent the following story
illustrating Mendez's prowess:
''Mendez has pitched the last five
games, or 4 8 innings. without allowing
run to be made off him. This rec
ord was not made against scrub
teams, he having shut out the Cincin-
natl National leaguers in each of the
three games he twirled against them
and twice BANKED the strong Key
West (Fla.) team, with Eagerman,
drafted by the Chicago Nationals, in
the box against him. In the three
games Mendez pitched against Gin
cinnati not a man reached third base,
and in his first game against the big
leaguers he shut them out without
hit.
"Mendez is the most wonderful
pitcher ever produced in Cuba, and
is the equal of any of the big stars of
American or National league teams.
He is the main asset of the Cuban
Stars, which team is made up of the
stars of the National league of Cuba.
Mendez is the best all-around player
in Cuba, and his color black as coal,
is the only thing that keeps him from
being a star in one of the major
leagues. He also holds the long
distance throwing record of Cuba

TWO HEAVY DAMAGE SUITS.
CoGcy County Citizens Complain Wives
Affections Are Alienated.

Burlington, Kan. Dec. 30.-Two
damage suits for the alienation of the
affections of the wives were filed in
district court within the week. The
parties in one case live near Agricola
and in the other near Gridley. In
the Agricola case $4,000 damages is
asked and $4,000 in the Gridley case.
e. c. CARRIER of Agricola has
brought suit against c. H. administer
for 100000 damages and alleges in his
petition that he and his wife Maude
were married December %, 1892, and
that they lived happily together until
the injuries complained of and would
have continued to live happily to-
gether but for them.
Attachment was issued and some
money belonging to Mr.. administer in
the First National bank of Waverly
and some land in Franklin county was
levied on. Mr.. Edminister has left the
neighborhood and Mrs. CARRIER has
gone to the home of her parents in
Franklin county.
The second case is that of E. z.
Blair VS.. T. A. knight and the allega-
tons in it are very similar to those in
the other case. Mr.. Blair alleges that
in his petition that they were married
January IL, 1898, and lived happily
with their two children until the acts
complained of. Mr.. knight lived with
the Blairs and the petition alleges that
her on business and pleasure trips, in
duced her 10 avoid the society of her
husband and that he fondled and
caressed her. Mr.. Blair prays judg-
ment for $4,000 damages and for
costs.

GOLD IN ARKANSAS.
Three La Harpe Men Think They
Have a Valuable Mine.

La Harpe, Kan, Dec. 3O.-Three
men well known in La Harpe and vi
cinity are interested in a gold mine
which reports say has recently been
discovered in Stone county, Arkansas.
The men are G. Seeberger, M. G.
Wharton and J. H. Vibber.
This is the laterest in regard to the
find from Newport:
cit is we'll known that gold, silver,
lead and zinc exist in the Ozark noun
tains. This range runs through Ma
of the country is wild, in the extreme.
H. Belts lived in Stone county before
the war. He had a lead deposit where
the Confederate soldiers got lead to
make bullets. After the war he drift
ed west and a short time ago he
thought to go back and pick up the
mine. In doing this he discovered a
mountain of gold and silver bearing
rock which assays from $500 to $500
to the ton. Mr.. Graham went up to
stone county and took the rock at
random 1t proved to be all that Mr.
Belts had claimed for it, besides be-
ing rich in oil bearing rock. Mr.. Ora
ham got Charles Seeberger and ]. H.
Vibber and these gentlemen together
with NJ. G. Wharton formed a cor
paid in to exploit the section. During
the past six months Mr.. Seeberger has
been quietly buying up the land and
the company now own a large area
and will begin operations at once, put
ting in machinery costing about $780,
600. The postoffice of the company
is at Marcelle. Mr.. J. H. Vibber states
that indications point to better results
than the famous fields of California.

TO WALK 5000 MILES.
j. A. Krohn Pushing a WheeIbarrow
Before Him on a Wager.

San Francisco, Dec. 3O.-J. A.
Krohn, of Portland. Me. has arrived
in this city on walk of 5000 miles
which he is to make on a wager in
400 days. According to the condi-
tions of the bet, Krohn, who is bet
ter known as Colonel Jack" must
push a wheelbarrow en- route and
cover the distance in the time named.
He has already walked 1850 miles,
an average of 26 miles a day.
To complete the walk on schedule
time he must walk a fraction over
% miles a day, and in spite of eleven
days lost on account of illness he is
far ahead of the requirements.
The Sphinx" the wheelbarrow
which the pedestrian trundles on this
long walk is covered with the post
marks of 635 postofhces. 1t also has
a speedometer attached to register
the number of miles covered. The
wager on the outcome of the walk is
$1,000 against 1000 copies of the
book which Krohn will write on the

A KANSAS BAIL LEAGUE.
Representatives From Six Towns Meet
and Organize.

Newton, Kan, Dec. 3o.-Repre-
sentatives met here, from Great Bend,
Hutchinson, Arkansas City, McPher-
son, Salina and Strong City and organ
lied the Kansas State Baseball league.
P. H. Hostutler of Hutchinson was
elected president, secretary and treas
urer and DR.. o. W. Rolf of Newton was
elected vice president
A circuit committee was appointed
to secure an additional town for mem
bership in the new league. Minneapo-
lis and Winfield were favorably con-
sidered and If both of these towns can
be secured 1t is probable that McPher-
son will be dropped, owing to the
sentiment there against Sunday ball.
If only one of those towns decides to
join the league, Mcpherson will likely
be retained and the Sunday games will
be taken to the other towns where
Sunday playing is permissible.
The new league will be under ma
tional protection, for which application
will be made at once. 1t is probable
that the season will open about April
Is and the schedule will call for 100
games.

NICK ALTROCK's FUTURE.
CantiIIon Says He Had q Promise of
the PIayer-Commy Says No.

Chicago, Dec. SO.-Charles Co
miskey denies that Nick Altrock is to
be sold to Minneapolis as was
claimed. There was much comment
last spring when Altrock was sign ed
up, because of a clause inserted in
the contract by Comiskey wherein it
was stated Nick was to receive hi:
pay if he RETAINED from drinking
during the summer.
Cantillon said he has secured the
promise of President Comiskey of the
Sox that he could have Nick as we'll
as Louis Fiene, who was pulled back
to Chicago from Minneapolis last sum-
mer.
1.-THE report that have made a
trade for Stone of st. Louis is not
quite correct" said Charlie Comiskey;
mot yet. I do not think there will be
any trades till February, and, of
course, have no idea as to what
deals will be put through by that
time I am expecting a letter from
Fielder Jones though, and hope it will
be a missive that will clear up the
situation for 1902"

CHASED HUNGARIANs AWAY.
Humboldt WorIxnen Objected to Inn
portation of Foreigners.

Humboldt, Kan, Dec. 30.-Consid-
cradle excitement was caused in town
by the arrival of thirteen Hungarians,
who were to have been put to work
by the Monarch Cement company, but
who did not stay, owing to the fact that
they were driven to the depot by a
party of cement company workers.
Marshal Benson remained at the depot
till the crowd came back uptown,
which they did not being assured that
the Hungarians would be sent away
on the plug.
The Monarch Cement company
states that it had been the intention
of the company to put the Hungarians
to work in the quarry, as they were in
need of workmer.
In an affair like this it is difficult to
get the real facts, but it is known that
they came here and would have gone to
work but for the demonstration of the
home workmen. There were claims by
several that three or four of the home
workmen were discharged yesterday,
and this added to the feeling engen-
dered by the presence of the Hun
garians.

HANGS ON TO DELEHANTY.
Washington Club Don't Want to Lose
the PepperY Little PLAYER.

Washington, Dec. 30.-There is
slight chance of Joe Cantillon, man
ager of the Senators, letting Jim
Delehanty go to the New York Ameri-
cans for Norman Elberfeld, even in a
trade in which no other player is con-
cerned. When Cantillon made a
proposition to Manager StaIlings Of
the Highlanders for Elberfeld, he told
George T. there were certain men he
would not have for the peppery little
shortstop. One of these men was
Delehanty. Stallings at once picked
Del and Cantillon called off the
negotiations.
Cantillon argues that Delehanty is
one of the best players in the Amer
lean league and that he is improving
all the time, while Elberfeld is on the
down grade and the club that secured
him will have to take a chance on his
coming back to his old form. The
Highlanders can have C1ymer and
Burns for Elberfeld or CIymer and
Smith for their former leader but no
one else. The Washington club is
willing to make trades which look
anything like even, but it has no in
tention of breaking up its nucleus for
a winning for the sake of helping
some other team in the American
league.
