ALBERT MATHEWS, Dealer iu Harness and Saddles, HARfJZSS OIL Bridles, Whips, Combs, Brushes, Attica. Kansas. TT 17? A Eeggar Worth A few dars since a rerr poorly dressed woman named Catherine Donovan went to the city hospital and said that she needed treatment. ISiu; was examined and it was found that she was suffering from a bad aciilj) wound.

She refused to tell how it was received and would not tell where she lived. The wound was dressed, and as he-woman claimed to be too poor to purchase medicine, some was given her. She asked to be allowed to remain over night, and the request was granted. She was searched by the nurse and a most astonishing discovery was made. In the pocket of her ragged dress were found several bank-books representing about $7,100 in cash in various banks in this city.

Hidden array in the lining of her dress aud in other places were found about $300 in money and 1,000 in bonds. She was highly indignant when searched and said that they had no business to treat her in such a manner. She was so incensed that she refused to remain at the hospital an' longer. An attempt was made to lhul out where she lived, but she was dumb to all questions. She was asked if someone attempted to get the property aw jy from her by force, thus iuilicting tho scalp wound, but she refused to give any answer.

She claimed that the hospital authorities had no right, to ask any questions of her, aLtl that what property she had belonged to herself, and that fJie came honestly by it. The officers at the hospital attempted to detain her, but she insisted upon going. It was after'10 o'clock at night when the woman left. The hospital authorities had an idea that it was an attempted ro'otvry, but as the woman refused to irive asv in-formation at ail this of course was mere supposition. Xcw York Mad add Express, Loui.5 Kapoleon's Appointments.

Even the French Republicans are admitting that the last Emperor Napoleon was not so black as he was painted at all events, not in some particulars. It is allowed that in the distribution of much of his patronage he rarely troubled himself about the politics of the candidates whose names were submitted to him. Between 1849 and 1870 it is calculated that at least eighteen out of every twenty appointments to offices of importance were given by him to men of Legitimist, Orleanist, or Republican views. Apropos of this liberality of the Emperor, the Empress Eugenie once made an often quoted remark, or, as Frenchmen would call it, a mot. "Bonapartist!" she once exclaimed in the privacy of a circle of Court intimates; "we are not Bonapartist.

at this Court, you know. As to the Emperor, he is a Socialist; as to me well, I am a Legitimist, and M. Rouher, there, cannot deny that he is an Orleanist. Yes," she added, a moment's pause, "Persigny is the only real Bonapartist I know at the Tuileries." 1 IX ill Pioneer Rleat market, PITNEY (Successors to Black Fitch) Hnvina purchased the above meat market, ve have thoroughly renovated and otherwise improved the faciities for properly handling meats during the hot mouths, ve solicit the patronage of the general public. a 5 J.
