O. U. WT. hall, which although on common material is a really lovely piece of work. It represents a busy wharf scene with the over jutting stories of the high buildings so noticable in Old Edinburgh, while in the river a number of crafts lie moored or are represented as passing in and out of the harbor.

In the background rises the blue castle crowned mountains, and the whole is framed in the parted folds of a rich gold bordered curtain. Mr. Rohe is too much devoted to his art to slight the least although the price would not seem to justify such fidelity, and this characteristic has enabled him to present our friends the Workman with a beautiful curtain for their handsome hall at a comparative low cost.

Have you seen," I asked of uiy solid girl, "The rhymes which the papers have checkered In praise of themselves?" and quick as a whirl She answered, "I want none but the Record." The University Oratorical association will meet January 31st. The ice men's hopes vanished under the dense fog of this morning.

There are quite a number of cases of La Grippe among the High School students. Clarence Hall, the Record's University correspondent, is quite ill with La Grippe. The Business College will give a reception this evening to the students and friends. Dr. V.

WILDER BROTHERS, Shirt Makers and Gents' Furnishers, LAWRENCE, KANSAS. SOUTHERN KANSAS RAILROAD. Tlxe Postal Clerk and the Dank Clerk. The R. M.

S. Bugle is the name of a paper published in the interest of the railway postal service men by one of the clerks. A contributor signing himself "Kicker Jr." furnishes the following comparison between the duties of a bank clerk and a postal clerk: 'Are all Congressmen in favor of better salaries for postal clerks? It would seem not. It is reported that one Kansas Congressman has said that he is not in favor of any advance, for he says: "Good bank clerks only get about S85 per month." Let's see the bank clerk works about six hours a day for six days in a week (except holidays.) The writer has a run on which his average for work is about ten hours a day for seven days in a week or 365 days in a year, and I haven't the hardest run in the country, either. The bank clerk may be at home every night with his wife and family his own wife while the postal clerk may be pounding along over the road, thanking God that the car keeps right side up and on the rails; though sometimes it doesn't.

The bank clerk has no occasion to fear wrecks, though banks are sometimes wrecked but then it's the depositors who suffer. The bank clerk must know how to read, write and cipher the postal clerk must know how to read, write and decipher some of the worst hieroglyphics the ingenuity or illiteracy of man can devise. From a banker's standpoint the clerk must have a fair knowledge of the branch in which he works. From a Kansas City and Railway Mail Service standpoint the pos-tial clerk must have a particular and definite knowledge of Kansas, Neb-braska, Missouri, Illinois, Iowa, Arkansas, Indian Territory, Texas and Colorado, and a general knowledge of the balance of the universe. The bank clerk may sleep in a bed every night the postal clerk may hang himself up on a nail in the car, if there happens to be one and he gets time.

The bank clerk may spend his money at home, where his family and himself may enjoy the comforts it will procure. The postal clerk must spend a good portion of bis on the road, where hunger and the necessity for so doing is bound to overtake him. If this Kansas congressman has any bank clerkships with the aforementioned salary attachment at his disposal, the writer will trade him a choice position in the railway mail service for it p. d. q.

Mr. Editor, please inform him that my P. address is Sta. A. Kansas City, and my office hours from a.

m. in the forenoon until p. m. in the afternoon. On further thought I believe I can furnish him the names and addresses of several hundred postal clerks willing to make a deal on similar terms.

It is perhaps unnecessary to state that this Congressman is not the Hon. S. R. Peters, who knows something of the postal service and the work clerks have to do." EAWKENCE OM LAW er Passen No 11 :04 a in Freight TO A WHENCE. No.

Charles Roberts, a young colored man, was arrested in the east part of town last evening by Del Harbaugh assisted by officers Prentice and Estes. He made an effort to escape and came near doing so. Several shots were fired at him while he was running, but he managed to get away. Del Harbaugh then borrowed a horse of a man passing and with it run Roberts down, capturing him near Haskell's grove. He was lodged in the city jail.

He is being held for stealing turkeys from T. 11. Pendleton and it is thought that the robbing at House's clothing store may also be fastened on him. Robert is not yet 21 years old, but has already spent a term in the penitentiary, being sent up for robbing Manley's shoe store about three years ago. He was discharged from the penitentiary about 7 months ago.

ire has some accomplices in the stealing and it is thought they will also be captured by the aid of Roberts' mother. The old woman is kept busy most of her time trying to keep her boys from jail, as she has two others that are as bad as Charles.

He says: "If there is anything thaUwill make an editor feel that this is a cold world and life is a failure, it is for some galoot to march up to his desk and with a princely air that betokens annihilation say: "I want you to stop this paper, I have all the news I want and don't care for this." But such a calamity is intensified and hope is less bright when the editor, by reason of said ex-subscriber's arrearage on the book, has on his last best and only pair of pants, on the bottom of which there are patches of a different colored cloth, and when ladies call on the editor they laugh sarcastically as he walks awaj- frm them across the room.
