The farmers of Kansas have discovered that they can do much themselves to adjust the conditions of success to the climatic characteristics of that state; and many instances might be cited in which the influences of an adverse season have been overcome, in a great measure, by employing all those timely adventages which must be considered in a country where the rainfall is uncertain, the chief of which are early planting and thorough cultivation. There will be a largely increased acreage this year all over the state of all varieties of agricultural products, and the prospect could not bo blighter than it is now for a fruitful and plentiful season in Kansas.

Deceiving Doctors. A case which is calculated to lessen the confidence of people in the diagnosia of disease made by presumably competent physicians, and a case, too, which has its very Judicious side, is that of one Tj. M. Logan, who was at last accounts still lodged in jail in Edwardsville, 111., on a charge of swindling practiced upon the people of the Sucker state. Mr.

Logan arrived early in the winter at Alton 'and professed to be the owner of a rare plantation in California and the discoverer of an exceedingly valuable process of manufacturing perfumery, which would make tho fortunes of A WICHITA ECB APE. Two Men Fatally Shot in a House of 111 Repute. "Wichita, Feb. 5. -This morning between 3 and 4.

o'clock a party of men broke down the door to the "Ircn a notorious dive in this city, and forced an -entrance. One of the men within narood Will Sparr, lover the, Mistress of the place, was told to hold up his hands and as be did so one of the party, "Black Jack," fired shooting him in the arm. Sparr'a woman then gave him a revolver and ho shot "Black Jack" in the breast and another man, Link Mills, in the groins. Several other shots, were exchangod, dcing but little damage. "Black Jack" has died from the effect of his Mound, but before his death made a statement substantially as above.

Mills is dangoroualy, if not fatally wounded. Sparr, it is thought, will recover. A numberof arrests parties implicated in tho affray have been made by the police Indianapolis, Isi.t Fob. 5 The Journal's Evansville correspondent informs that paper that a report has reached that city of a most dastardly utrago by White Cap" committed Friday night near Marengo, Crawford count In that locality reside, Thomas Williams and wife, who were subjected last year to great indignities, it 13 said, at the hands of the White Caps." At the time Williams claimed to have recognized among his assailants a prominout young man, Thomas Courtney, son of one of the leading physicians of the Co. He immediatly sought the arrest of Courtney, who fearing trouble, left for parts unknown.

Nothing further was heard of the young man until recently, when he was located at Fort Scott, and arrostod, and, undor a requisition from Governor Gray, he is now being brought bock. This news enragad the young man's rionda, and they wrecked vengeance on Williams. The report says they went to his house Friday night and being refused admittance, broke down the door. Williams fired into tho crowd, wounding a couple of men.The mob then tied Mrs. Williams to a bed, and took Williams into the yard and tied him to a tree upon Williams' refusal, to make a swora statement exonerating young Courtney of future charges, they flogged him.

If we are not dudes and do not comb our hair, we eeem to have had brains enough to support the men, who now fill our county offices and also enough brains to keep up with that plug-hat gentleman at any cross-road.

Air is tho essential of all the necessities of life. Notwithstanding, evon the wealthy, who spend thousands use lessly. Jdeprive themselves of this greatest of luxuries which Heaven affords "without money and without price, shutting themselves up in their palatial resiaencea. with no provision made for a supply of life-giving oxygen. A beautiful carpet covers the floor, fine worka of art adorn tho walls, luxurious furniture abounds in every room, and no luxury that wealth can buy is wanting; but oh! what a smell! One is tempted to protect his olfactories with a hand kerchief, and beat a hasty retreat; but courtesy demands that he should nuffer martydom, and so he sits down with os much complacency aspessi ble.

In each breath his keen el factory sense discovers ancient smell3 from the kitchen, ordors of deconi position from the cellar, mouldy dust from the carpet, and, wor.it of all, the foul exhalations from half a dozen human bodies, lungs, skins, stomachs, decaying teeth, etc On all the outer walls the condensation of fetid matter is taking place, but is rendered invisible by absorption by John H.

The shot can uetrate a seel armor plate thirty-six inches thick at the mouth of the gnu, or twenty-nine inches at a dis-tance of a mile.

N. O. Times Democrat A gentleman who has recently returned to the city from California, ays there are more disgusted people in California than he ever saw before.

High wages are given, but the necessaries ef life are correspondingly high. Coal and wood sell at exhorbitant prices and are very scarce. Arouad San Diego there is no timber, scarcely anything even that could be called a tree. The ficticious values placed on real estate is what is making the boom, and when once that land fever is over there will be a great depression throughout the southern portion of that state.

Hillbboro, Kansas j-liiitI Vr ih. Oil la score of men. And his plaueibl representations induced two Alton id on to embark money in his scheme. Having secured the money Mr. Logan disappeared, and he was afterwards arrested and lodged in jail in Ed worsville.

Having been put in jail, Mr. Logan immediately began to waste away, On December 27 he was seized with a violont I attack of neuralgia. On December 28 ho was totally deaf. Tho day following the pupils of his eyes were dilated to a frightful ex tent; and within twenty-four hours he was blind. AVith the opening of the new year he lost his voico.

He was then deaf, dumb, blind, 'and a shadow of his former self. So a physician was called in an i ho looked Mr. Logan over qmte thoroughly, and reported a permanent loss of hearing inl ear, a slight chance that he might regain his hearing in tho other ear, paralysis of the vocal chords, and a probability of permanent blindness. It was cruel to keep a mau in his condition in a cell, and Mr. Logan was removed to an upper room in the jail building where his wife was permitted to nurse him But Mr.

Logon rapidly grew worse. His condition was truly pitiable. He had palpitatioa of the heart, epileptic fits, terrible attacks of dyspepsia, and occasionally he would spit blood. On the lGth of January he had frightful convulsions, and another physician was called in. He made a thorough examination, and announced that Mr.

Logan was a goner; that he had a tumor on his brain about three inches back of the frontal bone, and that it would kill him. A consultation of doctors was called and they all agreed that Mr. Lagan had a tumor in the brain, and that the only chance of saving his life was by an operation. Mr. was nncoasciouB for seven days.

was unconscious when two noted surgeons from St. Louis arrived last Monday to perform the operation, having been induced to come by the remarkable features of his case. But when the instruments were all ready and the surgeons had rolled np their sleeves, Mr. Logan gave a wild shriek and jumped nut of bed. He informed the astonished Burgeons that ho had deceived them; that he had caused the dilation of his eyes with belladonna, which he had smuggled into jail between his toes; that his fits were feigned and his vomiting the result of awollowing tobacco juice; that he had produced heart palpitation and sent the blood rushing to hia head by filling his lungs with air and contracting his chest, holding his breath meantime, and that his rapid pulsation was produced by striking his elbow against the wall.

The object, of course'was to keep out of the penitentiary, but he will get t'oero now if the doctors can put him there. The Marion Times, in its last issue, comes out in a lengthy harangue on the proprietor and editor of this paper, as he would have the people beliove, he supposes, that we are as ignorant a set of Dutch, as he has always tarmed us. We will inform that plug hat-gentleman, if we can call him such, that tkis is the first time since the election that he could find a change to assail the editor of this paper, and so he went to werk in his poetical way. We are sot poets aad we are glad of it, ince we havo seen the folly of them, such as Wheeland, Whittaker and Groat. This man, Wheeland, aaid to Billings, we can make a fortune by starting a Republican paper.

So they started np in plug-hat style and soon found out that they had bitten off more than they were able to chew. Wheeland now savs to Billings, whore a strong feeling has sprung up against the repeated outrages of the "White It will certainly aggravate tho feel ing against young Courtney, who was expected to arrive at Leavenwrlh in charge of the sheriff. Bismarck is unquestionably one of tho most remarkablo men of his time. At an advanced age after a lifetimo of public service he delivers his directions to the Reichstag with all the mo tal vigor of hia prime. There is no man in Europe-no man in the world-who speaks with the same authority.

It is difficult to reconcile hia presence with tho jtheory of constitutional government, but ho personifies German unification and speaks for the German people. His assurance of European poace is given with characteristic force. It is a peace which Germany coorces by a military power the other nations dare not dispute. Bismarck does not deal in bravado or rhodomontade. He is backed by an army which is one vast war-machine.
