ST. JOHN OF KANSAS BLEED.
Former Governor of Kansas Falls an
Easy Prev to a Sharper.

Easy Prey to Sharper.
John P. st. John, former governor
of Kansas, won the brand of the
"easy mark when he "fell' for the
game of confidence man on the
Rock Island train between Wichita
and Topeka AS result he is $40
poorer in really perfectly good money.
and much richer in actual experience.
Mr.. ST. John was seated in the
chair car watching the landscape
when a much perturbed and hatless
man entered.
The hatless man dropped into a
seat beside the governor.
81 was told" he said, chat I could
buy a money order on the train. Now
I find that I cannot l don't know
what I am going to do. l must send
this money to my sister, and I have
only big bunch of small bills. 1t
won't do to put them in an envelope"
Gov. st. John rose to the bait just
as if he had never braved the dangers
of such great cities as Topeka and
Wichita.
81 can let you have two twenties,"
he said.
The offer was accepted. Mr.. st.
John produced the two twenties and
the stranger handed over a roll. See
ing that he was dealing with stran-
ger, Mr. st. John carefully counted
the contents of the roll. He found
that it contained seven 81 bills and
one S. bill.
"You have mistake" he said
There is not enough money here"
The stranger, who in the meantime
had placed the two twenties in an en-
velope and sealed it, was all apollo
gies.
That's a joke on my wife," he ex-
planned. "She gave me that roll and
told me that there was $40 in it.
Here, you just hold this envelope
while 1 go back and get the rest of
the money"
The governor put the envelope in
| his pocket and resumed his study Of
the landscape. Finally he bethought
| him that the stranger had never come
| back. Then Mr.. ST. John opened the
envelope. 1t contained only two
pieces of tissue paper.

But Bonnie now had the key to
what he had been hearing for the past
week. 1t was all new and strange to
him. He remembered boy at the
Home called George Washington ST.
mons, who was named, they said, for
the very first president. He had a
dim recollection, too, of one day in
the summer when nobody worked, and
it was never too hot to eat lots Of
cake and things. Now, somehow, he
had got the idea that it meant that on
that day everybody was free to have
good time.
That evening before the Fourth Sam
shot off a whole bunch of firecrack-
ers behind the barn, and it made Ben

American boy would be free.
When he helped Mrs. Brison carry
out to the carry-all the basket filed
with the good things that boys like,
he had on no ''best clothes,'' but his
face was shining from an application
of soap and towel and the anticipa-
ton of almost heavenly pleasure. He
had just set the basket down when
Sam poked him in the ribs with his
thumb and said:
''Huh, you amt goin'."
He thought Sam was only joking.
The family were all seated in the
carry-all and Bonnie was about to hop
in when Farmer Brison, taking up the
whip and the lines, looked back at
Bonnie over his shoulder and said.
look after them cattle today, and
see that they git water and don't git
through that hole in the fence. You
better keep an eye on the house, too"
Mrs. Brison added. Il left you bite
in the Kitchen" and then with a
"G'lang, Bess," the carry-all drove
away.
Bonnie could hardly believe his ears.
Not go when it was a holiday for
everybody! Why, he had worked
harder than any one to get to go.
Bonnie sat down on the front door
steps and wondered what he should
do, and the sun found him there two
hours later when it rose high and hot
in the heavens Then he wandered
ont on the road, then back into the
| ward and into the fields. The day
was hot with dry, prickly heat from
which there was no rest. The stub
BILE in the fields bruised his bare feet.
With tagging steps at noon tide he
| made his way to the house, where,
removing the red tablecloth that COW
cred the "bite" prepared for him by
| the farmers wife, he set to work eat
ing his lonely dinner. The pie was
good and he ate as heartily of it as
| If he had never had disappointment.
The meal satisfied him to some ex-
tent and, thinking Of the long lonely
afternoon. he wandered into the hay
field and lay down for nap on the
shady side of a haystack. AS he lay
there. looking with half-closed eyes
across the fields everything seemed
ouaking with the heat, and overhead
a buzzard was slowly sailing. He
slipped little lower, his hat sinking
farther over his face, so that all that
he could see under the brim was the
buzzard. How far it could go with
but one flap of it's wings! He won

was circling Immediately over him
and coming closer and closer. How
funny it's head and beak, and how
much quicker it seemed to move than
at first. Why, he had never seen that

Last Sunday l witnessed a buffalo
fight for the first time in my life. 1t
was at Batu Baker, in Kedah, where
such exhibitions are a matter Of week
" occurrence. The animals fought IN
an Enclosure about 100 feet square
and surrounded on every side by
raised platforms for those of the spec
tators who care to pay for the sport.
Thousands of others packed them
selves close in the arena itself-perli-
ously close it seemed to me-and W.T.
messed the fight. Sometimes, am
told. the spectators number as many
as 10000; on this occasion there were
between 5000 and 1000 present.
Business began in earnest as soon
as the combatants were loosed.
Their heads came together with
shud. they separated, came together
again and pushed and strained for an
