He should have expressed himself as Colonel Anthony has had the courage to do, concerning the atrocities perpetrated upon the helpless patients at the Topeka Insane as ylum where Gust Mauer aud old man Stark met death at the hands of brutal attendants; where Adams, for daring to speak to the evil-eyed autocrat who rules over that institution with a hand of iron and a heart of stone, was treated with a brutality wholly unjustifiable and absolutely inexcusable; where male and female patients are allowed to mingle together at will with results the most deplorable possible to be imagined; where the patients are robbed of all the money they take there with them and deprived of all sent them by their friends; where crazy patients are sent to prepare food for human beings to eat with the result that dead mice and all kinds of vermins are sent smoking to the tables at the insane asylum. And after he got through with that, he might have dwelt for a few fleeting moments upon the brutal beating of boys by the thugs at the reform school, where little Davy Denman received seventy-two cuts across the back from a heavy whip in the hands of a monster in the shape of a man.

Lucy Renard, a delegate to the Rebekah assembly, had her pocket picked at the Fifth Avenue hotel. Her purse and $2 are missing, but Proprietor DeMoss made the amount good. Rev. Broad, superintendent of the Congregational home missions, addressed the railroad men at the coach shops today noon, and J. C.

Geach of Fort Scott lead the music. All told, there were about 1,000 people out at the race track yesterday afternoon, and those who were fortunate enough to be there, saw some good, speedy contests between good horses owned by honest men. Everything moved off easily with George Wolf in the starter's stand. In the 2:27 trotting contest, Reckless, driven by Zack Ransdall, won in straight heats; Fair Laura, second and Doubtful Dick third. R.

The editor doubtless Felt this to be the burning issue of the hour, and tears mingled with gall and gore in the Sold lined in framing the bitter wail that the Champion sends forth concerning the short comings of the party in power. Kditor Felt first reviews the "cat and dog fight" that is going on inside the party lines and says "if it is kept up there will not be a ghost of a show to re-elect the resent state officers next year." Andy 1'YIt, no matter how he felt about the mutter, might have saved the unavailing tears shed over this point. None of the present state officers will be re elected no matter what else may happen.

things that Andy Felt might have touched upon in a quiet and unobstructive manner of course. It is gratifying though to observe The Odd Fellows were in session in Representative hall all day yesterday. The election of officers occupied a considerable portion of the time. The election was governed by a new set of rules and patterned after a new system, the old one having been abolished by the order ut the last annual session and the new one substituted for it, ratified by the Sovereign Grand lodge at the National meeting at Atlantic City last September. The arrangement that has always been followed was for the nominatious to be made at the regular meeting of the grand lodge and to be followed immediately by the election.

At the last annual gathering the lodge voted to inaugurate a new plan. This was for the nominations to be made a year ahead at the state convention and the elections held in the different lodges at their local headquarters, the following May. This rule, though passed, could not be placed in operation until ratified by the sovereign Grand lodge, which was done at the September meeting of the national order. The old system was utilized yesterday but the other will be tried at the next election. The list of names from which the officers will be elected a year from now is rather long, including several candidates for each that he has made a good beginning, and also that he like Colonel Dan Anthony has descovered the hand writing on the wall THEY ARE ALWAYS WITH US.

Patsy Free, as usual was unmanageable and capped all previous bad conduct by running away, and not until the horse had gone 2i miles could the rider bring him under control.

We hope the story is absolutely untrue. It has been repeatedly published by newspapers in and out of Kansas and we have not read any denial of it." After remarking that it was by the narrowest of narrow margins that Kansas was redeemed, snatched as a brand from the burning as it were last year the ex-lieu tenant governor goes on with the bitter wail in this way: "There is no good reason for attempting to conceal the fact that if a state election occurred in Kansas next month strong attempt was made to abolish it and return to the old way, a large por tion of the delegates favoring such action, but there was about an equally In speaking of the city's poor Mrs. Thorpe said that she was anxiously looking forward to the time when the associated charities would relieve her of some of the demands that were now being made upon her daily.

Thorpe believes the number of persons who will be dependent upon charity this winter will not be quite so large as last, but it will be large enough to require the attention of all charitably disposed societies. Already Mrs. Thorpe has an average of thirty calls every day for help, and it is impossible for her to provide for all.

Indeed, if things keep on going as thev are now, there will be no majority at all." The Atchison editor then gazes meditatively for a moment at the saloon across the way where sandwiches are served with beer and pensively remarks: "There is much more in the contest next year than to provide bread and butter for hungry Republicans, no matter how deserving they may be. Public offices as gifts of the party in power have crippled the present administration, aud its broken promises and unkept obligations have made the men in office the target for much deserved criticism and for much raalace, mendacity and hate.

Officer Ewing last night gobbled up a couple of shady female characters with dark vissages; and with them two young white men who gave their names as Henry Bennett and James Burns, respectively. The women plead guilty and paid $10 each as fines. The two white men were likewise taxed $10 each.

The true names of these white individuals may be be given one as John Baird and the other as Henry Carter. These were former employes on the Mulvane ranch and were with Ross at the De Barrows home, at the time Ross was killed. They were here as witnesses for the state in the murder case just closing. They claimed that a very, very colored man named Dick Justice, piloted them to the place by their solicitation. They, by the way, had formed a circular swing acquaintance with the colored damsels at the steam whistle tent on Quincy street, and were therefore easily led.
