On Tlioir Muscle. Si'icKARDViLtE, Feb. 17. The temperance crusade in this section of the state is spreading. It reached here early last week and the temperance forces have been fomenting ever since.

Last Thursday a number of women met and resolved to close up a club house run by Drury Davis in defiance of the liquor laws. The ladies met at 5 o'clock Saturday evening to carry out their designs. Armed with rocks, hatchets and axes they proceeded the saloon, accompanied by the usual complement of small boys and curl-ous men. With the rocks the women smashed in all the windows and with the axes chopped down the door. Having gained entrance to the saloon, the women possessed themselves of the bottles and kegs of beer and barrels of whisky, and carrying them into the streets, their con-tents were emptied into the gutter.

Returning to tho saloon the fixtures were demolished aud the crusaders' work was done. Hamilton Brady, the owner of the building, says he will prosecute the women for destroying his property. Drury Davis, the man who ran the saloon, has nothing to say. CATHOLICS CANNOT JOIN. Kansas Fmiuoii Can Fut on Their Thinking Caps.

Kansas City, Fob. 17. In a Lenten pastoral letter to be read In all tho churches of tho diocese of Leavenworth, Bishop Fink, of the Roman Catho-llo church, referring to the Farmers' Alliance movements, caused by the agricultural depression, says: "We say that, surrounded by a bountiful crop, as Ave are, many of our people are suffering and are in misery, uncertain what they should do in the future. The complaints come not only from the laboring classes In cities who are without work, but especially from the country districts, from the farming population, which feels that matters cannot be as theyjttre for an indefinite number of years, or they would lose their houses and home Owing to the peculiar state of our country every one suffers when the farming population Is in distress. Thoughtful persons are well aware that the present grievances of the farmers are but too true.

"It seems that almost every industry in our country is protected in order to amass riches in the hands of the few, by which the many will have to suffer. Tho only classes not protected are those who would seem to need it most the laboring men and the farming population The bishop reviews the constitution of the Farmers' Alliance and holdsjjthat no Catholic can join the order, because it is secret and because it virtually has a religion and a chapalin of its own. This latter point he discusses at length and declares that if the Alliance will drop its religious aspect Catholics can join it and work for the good of tho farming classes. The Cattle Question. Washington, Feb.

18. The president yesterday afternoon issued a proclamation directing the removal of all cattle from grazing upon what is known in Kansas as the Cherokee outlet, in tlio northern part of the Indian territory, by the 1st day of October next unless negotiations' now pending for the cession of the territory to the United States shall have been completed sooner. Then the cattle must be removed forthwith upon notice. He also directed that no additional herds be permitted to enter the territory after this date. Fort Worth, Feb.

18. A convention has been called by the representatives of the different associations throughout the southwest to meet with the Northwest Texas Cattle Growers' association at Fort Worth on March 11, 1890, to inquire into the causes which have led to the low prices of beef to the producers, without any corresponding benefit to the Does a General Banking Business, Collections a Specialty. AN HISTOmCAL INCIDENT. 1' rwiil out Harrison Will Unriuubleuly Sign That bill. Indianapolis, Feb.

18. Tho passage In the senate of a bill to pay tho long dissolved luw firm of Porter, Harrison Fishback $2,500 for legal servicos lias revived In a gossiping way many incidents nearly forgotten. In (len. AlvinP. Hovey, now governor of this slate and then In command of this military department, convened a court martial to try eer tain prominent Kiffghts of the Golden Circle.

Several were convicted mid sentenced to be hung, but President Lincoln pardoned them on the ground that Indiana was not under martial law, that the regular courts were in session and consequently the military court was illegal. Several years afterward L. P. Mllllgan, one of the convicted men, brought suit for damages against Gen. Hovey and others, the case being prosecuted by tho late Vice-President Hendricks in the United Suites court here before Judge Walter Q.

Gresham. By direction of the secretary of war the law firm of Porter, Harrison Fishback was retained for the defense, and after nearly twenty years tho bill for services is brought up in the shape referred to. The history of the members of that old-time firm is rather interesting just now. It then had only a local reputation. The two senior members had both been reporters for the Indiana supreme court and the junior had been a deputy prosecutor in the criminal court.

Only that and nothing more. Shortly after the trial in question W. P. Fishback retired from the firm and became editor of the Indianapolis Journal. He remained there two years, then went to St.

Louis and with his brother, George W. Fishback, a partner of McKee llouser, bought the Democrat. This was in the days of the whisky ring. McKee, Houser and Jos. B.

Mc-Cullagh started the Globo and it soon swallowed the Democrat, Indiana colony aud ail. Fishback returned here on his uppers and was subsequently appointed clerk of the U. S. court and master in chancery by Judge Gresham, ai.d still holds the latter position. Albert G.

Porter was elected governor of Indiana in 1880, placed Harrison in nominaiion at Chicago and as a reward was appointed minister to he is now living. And, Harrison, ifter being elected Senator, is now President of the United States. THE SUNFLOWER STATE. THROTTLING INDUSTRY. Glaring Discriminations in the Pig-Irn Kate.

Kansas produced $175,000,000 worth of The Immigration Committee. Wichita, Feb. 17.The following circular of information has been transmitted to the several county organiza tions: Kansas Immigration Blrkau, Executive Offick. 1 WinniTA. Feb.

17. 1S80. To thedireotors of the Kansas Immigration Bu Almost a Bow. Wichita, Feb. 15.

A wordy war, which nearly culminated in blows, occurred in this city this morning. A leading foundryman and prominent rallpoad official were discussing freight rates when the former asserted that the discrimination against Wichita on Iron was sufficient to paralyze the business. This statement the railroader vigorously denied, when a tariff list was drawn on him which went into effect to-day. This shows a rate on pig-iron per ton from Birmingham, to Atchison, of to Emporia, Ft. Scott, Lawrence, Topeka, $7.36 and to Wichita $9.18.

In addition, the manufacturer said: "Let me call your attention, also, to the rate to St. Paul, which is only $6.18 from Birmingham, just $3.00 less than to this city for that long haul. How do you explain that discrimination?" The railroader finally had to admit the truth of all that was charged but insolently added in the words of Boss Tweed: "What are you going to do about it?" Hot words followed but a mutual friend interfered, and the parting shot to the representative of monopoly was: "We propose to elect a legislature next time that will pass laws preventing such infamous robbery. That's what we will do about it." stun last year, out tne trouble is sne nas the greater part of the stuff still left. A few weeks ago a Shawnee county man gathered several bushels of apples from trees that bloomed late In the fall.

The gypsum works at Medicine Lodge, just completed, have a capacity of forty tons of cement and plaster of Paris rsr day. It is hardly safe to take a pleasure trip out from Atchison. One is liable to be accused of attempting to defraud his creditors. The Emporia maidens are sighing over the scarcity of beaus. The girls have to attend entertainments in squads on this account.

The llcv. Bernard Kelley, pension agent at Topeka, says that his office disburses more money than any other in the Matters at the Capital. Washington, Feb. 17. Gov.

Lewis Wolfley, of Arizona, and Gen. Nelson A. Miles appeared before the home committee on Indian affairs, with regard to the proposed removal of the Apaches to Fort Sill. Gov. Wolfley presented a largo number of clippings from western "papers whicli he said showed that the sentiment of the people was that these Indians should not be returned to the west.

Gen. Miles said that he thought the people of Arizona and New Mexico had great cause for apprehension if the Indians were to be removed to Fort Sill. There never was such terror in Arizona as when the Indians were there aiid the people were never so happy as they are now when the Indians are away. Representative Struble, from the committee on territories, has reported favorable the bill to organize the territory of Oklahoma. Representative Anderson, of Kansas, introduced a bill In the house appropriating $250,000 for the purchase of a residence in or near Washington for the president of the United States.

A hunting party, just returned from the Indian Territory, report that the negroes on Red river, twenty-five miles northeast from here, are much excited over an event which occurred last week, and which they think the work of a voudoo doctor.

Last week a young mulatto woman gave birth to a child, or rather a human monstrosity. The head of the child is perfectly formed, and the features are regular with the exception of its eyes and nose. The eyes, instead of being perfectly round and placed nearly on the side of the head. The nose is hooked and shaped like an eagle's beak, a thing more remarkable from the fact that its father and mother have flat noses. From the head down the body of the child bears little or no resemblance to a human being, with the exception of its trunk.

The neck, arms and head of the child are similar to the neck, forelegs and feet of a rabbit, and are covered with a soft, gray fur. The elbow joints are much nearer the shoulder than is usual, and the hands are bent back at a right angle on the wrists. The legs are about the same size from the thigh down, not tapering as usual. The feet are unusually short, with very long toes that come to a point. The legs are covered with a thick, scaly skin, that resembles the scales on a fowl's leg, and as a whole the child is very repulsive, even to its' parents, and the aversion is strengthened by the be-lief that the freak of nature is all the work of a voudoo doctor who has been in the neighborhood.

Some months ago the doctor was made furiously angry by the mother and he threatened to send a terrible punishment upon her and herfrienis. Since the news of the birth of her child has spreao" abroad the darkies are terrified, and many fear the punishment of the angered doctor will be visited upon them. Indianapolis, Feb. 18. Viola Black-more, aged 20, a remarkable colored girl, died hero last night.

Her entire life was spent on her left side in bed with her hands constantly clutched over her head. She was three feet tall, with many of the developments of an old woman, but her limbs were those of a very small child. She undulatod in her motions and made peculiar noises like the hiss of a snake, and then mumbled and muttered in an incoherent manner. She had been the study and wonder of professional men fo ryears. Just before her birth a huge blacksnake ran across the road along which the mother walked.

The Mornion Side, Chicago. Feb. 18. Ex-Police Inspector John Bonfleld, who is at the head of a detective agency and who was engaged by the Mormons to look after their interests in the recent election at Salt Lake City, has returned. He says the Utah commission is supreme in Salt Lake, and under its operations there is a practical disfranchisement of the Mormon vote.

In addition to the wholesale disfranchisement of the Mormons, the Gentiles registered hundreds of names without giving the residence or occupation, as the law requires. They registered men who lived over 200 miles from Salt Lake, and the detective says he has more than twenty affidavits from men who have been "fixed" in this way. Mr. Boniield says that the Gentile triumph was a triumph of boomers and speculators, who sacrificed everything in the nature of justice for their own purpose. The result that land values have been pushed up enormously during the last six months, and a tremendous speculative craze has been helped by Monday's election.

The Mormons, ho says, all own homes, and are a well-to-do, respectable and orderly people. A woman in Topeka has become insane through brooding over her illegal consorting for years with a man to whom she was not married. Adam Brenner, who died at Doniphan the other day, owned the largest orchard in Kansas, and annually manufactured 80,000 gallons of wine. An old soldier at Leavenworth beoame intoxicated and jumped into the Missouri, river. He was rescued from the river, but the latest reports showed that the whisky still had the grip on him.

But four states in this nation publish more papers than Kansas. They are New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois. Kansas' list includes 52 dailies, 3 semi-weeklies 710 weeklies, 3 27 mniithlina 9 hi mnntlilU tn.nl fGau We report to you the result of the meeting held at Omaha, February 11, 1890. There were present 105 delegates, representing the entire state of Kansas. A carefully prepared memorial was presented to the railroad association, asking for assistance in our Immigration movement, especially for a half faro rate to explorers and immigrants coming to Kansas.

The association heartily endorsed our request and are perfecting plans for these rates. Our convention, after conference with the railroads, in order to bo ready for business at once, determined to publish a book, to consist of 120 or 130 pages, with a good state map. The first twenty-five pwges shall be devoted to matter describing the natural resources, climate and general excellencies of the state. In addition to this each county shall be accorded a page upon the following conditions: First To consist of not over 730 words, and not to occupy more than one page, and to be statements that are true concerning the county. Second Copy for tho same must be printed and at the central olilce by February 25.

Third To be accompanied by the payment of the county's proportion of the money necessary for publication. Fourth Also to be accompanied by the money of tin former assessment, unless it has been already paid, which was $1 for every 1,000 population in a county, and for the purpose of the actual expenses of the central office, and not to apply on the pulieatiou of the book. One hundred thousand books were ordered printed. Tho estimated cost is 4 cents a copy, hut tho contract is to be let to the lowest responsible bidder in the state. A careful estimate has been made of the number of counties that will participate in the first edition, which is seventy-live, thus placing tho ratio at one book for every ten of population in a county; thus a county of ten thousand will be required to take one thousand books.

The counties will be arranged in the book in alphabetical order. All estimates of population are made from the sixth biennial report of the state board of agriculture. The Immigration Bureau has already met with unparalelled success which commands the admiration of adjoining states. Let us move forward with diligence. We shall succeed.

Hale Cowley, Secretary Kansas Immlgratian Bureau. A Deadly Blow. Dallas, Feb. 15. Jake Kilrain and his sparring troop exhibited at the opera house Thursday night.

After some uneventful sparring Tom James, of Dallas, encountered Bansra, the combination champion light weight, for $25, conditioned that James should stay four rounds. Bansra had it his own way from the first. In the fourth round Banrra struck James in the neck, knocking him limp on the stage. The show continued, no one supposing that James was hurt seriously. When tho entertainment had about concluded Muldoon announced that James was unconscious and called for a physician.

Bansra was searched for by officers, but had fled. James died at 12:30 this morning. Kilrain criod like a child. The entire combination is held for murder. It is supposed James' neck was broken.

One doctor says it was paralysis of the heart. Bansra returned yesterday morning and surrendered himself to the ollicers. James was a well-built, muscular young man of 22. Muldoon has paid the doctor's bill, $30, and contributed $100 to defray the funeral exponses. Tho remains of James will be shipped to Denver for interment.

Tho deceased leaves a young wife, to whom Kilrain says Thursday night's receipts will be given. Kilrain' and party, except Bansra, left for New Orleans at 8 o'clock. "We go straight to New Orleans," said Cleary, "but we expect to come back to Texas." A Lovely Female Horse Thief. Jolust, Feb. 17.

Sheriff Silver, of Rock Island, landed at the prison Saturday morning, accompanied by a lovely young lady, who might have been taken for his dauther, but she was a female horse-thief, named Lowie Sherden, and only 18 years old. She had engaged in the business of horse-stealing in Hock Island County, and was convicted, but on account of her youth was let oil' with a year in prison. In addition to her fondness for fast horses Lowie had also a pre-dlliction for fast men, and they caused her downfall. A Wreck on the Santa Fe. Wichita, Feb.

18. The south bound Sunta Fe express yesterday plunged through a burned trestle a few miles from this city and cars and engine were piled together proiuisciously. Hoadmastcr Patrick Peters, of Newton, who was riding in the cab, jumped and was caught under a baggage car, being instantly killed. Engineer Eugene Nand and Fireman Jake Benfer also jumped, but escaped with comparatively slight bruises. None of the other train men were injured and aside from a general shaking up the passengers were none the worst for the disaster.

The trestle was about 100 feet long, and was not more than three feet from the ground at any point. The fire is supposed to have caught from tho last train that passed over it the previous evening, though there is a ttieory that it may have been of incendiary origin. There was no night track-walker on this section of the road. 797. K.

C. Stan The city clerk at Abilene, upon the advice of Attorney-General Kel logg, refused to allow two Chinamen who had been naturalized, to register for the municipal election. Isn't it a trifle late in the day for Kansas to be going -back on tho long-haired men? George Madison Tracey and his wifei celebrated their golden wedding anniversary at Atchison Thursday. They were married in Fayette, Moi( February 6, 1840, have had eleven children, only two of whom are living, and they have lived at Atchison for thirty-six years. A letter is published from Senator Plumb to a Kansas farmer, in which he says: "I know hard times have been with our farmers, fyst without crops, and then when there is a good crop the prices are so low as to be wholy unre-munerative.

I know that a portion, at least, of the difficulty grows out of an inadequate supply of the currency, and this part congress can and ought to rem cdy." Somewhat of Liar. Kansas Cwy, Feb. 17. The Associated Press has received a dispatch from L. II.

Hutchinson, mayor of Harper as follows: "The dispatch announcing a riot at Harper is an absolute falsehood, and the person that wrote it is a liar of the first order. The election was to vote $20,000 terminal bonds to H. G. railroad. Only nine opposition votes were cast and there was no ballot box stolen, no riot, no fighting, no general quarreling." Bison William Snubbed.

Paris. Feb. 18. Col. Cody, "Buffalo Bill," has received a rebuff from President Carnot.

Col. Cody presented M. Carnot with a magnificent Rochester lamp to adorn the vestibule of the Elysee, but which was returned by the President with a note from Gen. Bruyere, his secretary, saying that the President thanked the Colonel for his kind attention, but that he could not accept it, having made a rule never to take gifts from any one, aud could not depart from it, even in this Instance. The lamp is 9 feet of carved brass and resting on a table of Mexican onyx, 28 inches square.

On a plaque of onyx, fastened to the lamp rod, is attached a large buffalo head, captured by Col. Cody on the frontier. The shade of the lamp, 37 inches in diameter, is of scarlet silk, covered with moss-green tulle, embroidered with poppies and corn flowers. The cost of the lamp was 5,000 francs. It was made in America expressly for President Carnot.

Col. Cody is at Nice, and he is much annoyed at the President's refusal of his handsome gift. Gov. Larrabee Has Views. Dus Moines, Feb.

15. Governor Lar-rabee's message is a very lengthy document. It touches upon almost every subject of interest to the state. The governor dwells at considerable length on the question of prohibition, ne does not believe that a high license policy or one which he says will leave only the "respectable" saloon in existence, will ever be sanctioned by the people of Iowa. "The gilded saloon," he considers more dangerous than the "squalid, outlawed, whisky dive." The governor then enters into a long argument against the licensing of saloons in any form.

Where the law has not been enforced the blame, he thinks, lies with the executive officers. A recommendation is made that the law be amended so as to prevent undue search ol private houses. Better Than a Bond. Topeka, Feb. 17.

The litigation over the water-works here developed quite a sensational Incident Saturday. It was charged that local Influences had prevented the Topeka banks from assisting In making the bond for Coffin Stanton and the Atlantic Trust New York, and their attorney laid down the amount, $75,000, in greenbacks upon the clerk's desk. The security was accepted by Judge Foster. The Ecouoiuites. Pittsburg, Feb.

eighty-fifth anniversary of the Economite society was celebra' 1 at Economy, Saturday with and interesting services. Sixteen new members, including husbands, wives and children were taken into the society. As in the case of the other members the converts took vows of celibacy and from this time the husbands and wives shall never bear that relationship to one another. The society numbers now, including the new accessions less than eighty persons aud a majority of them have reached four score years. They, owe nothing as individuals, but their wealth as a society is variously estimated at from $25,000,000 to The society's holdings embrace millions in railroad stocks and gas property, besides 3,000 acres of valuable farming property and a tmyn containing scores of houses aud mam plants.

A Fijjht Willi Desperadoes. Fams, Feb. 17. Deputy Marshal W. H.

Carr, who arrived here with R. Everheart and Ben Cornelius, charged with arson, reports that on Monday, while himself and posse were trying to arrest Jim Horbolt, who is charged with murder, and Wilman Brummett, about seventy-five miles west of Ardmore, on Wild Horse Creek, a running fight ensued, in which Brummett was wounded in the back. He ran about a mile into the woods, where ho dismounted, gave his horse to Horbolt and secreted himself. Horbolt outran his pursuers and escaped, and Brummett could not be found, so tho officers were forced to abandon the chase. It is believed that Brummett is either dead or will die.

J. R. Graham, of Emporia, formerly a newspaper man of- that city, has been studying the reason why so much Kansas farming is unprofitable, and finds it in the kind of crops planted. The value of winter wheat averaged $4 per acre; corn $6.10 per acre; broom corn $1.28 per acre; tobacco $66 per acre; cotton $22.13 per acre. Mr.

Graham thinks that the farmers of the southern tier of Jfouns counties ought to devote their land entirely to cotton. Elmira Gazette: That corn sells for 13 cents per bushel and coal costs 20 cents per bushel may seem to justify the burning of com for coal in Missouri and Kansas. But it does also seem as if there is something wrong in the conditions which permit empty coal bins in Missouri and Kansas and empty meal bags in Penn-sylr'a, while farmers in the former are burm. i coal for fuel and miners in the latter are idle. What is the matter with the theory of exchange? The counties of Sedgwick, Sumner, Cowley and Butler, the "Big Four," produced last year 29,114,302 bushels of corn and 4,765,250 bushels of wheat enough to load 86,693 cars.

These same counties have 50,311 horses, 8,188 mules, 193,759 cattle, including milch cows, 149,908 hogs and 64,643 sheep. Butler leads the state ih sheep by more than double, having 84,245, Cowley county second with 16,000. We doubt whether there Is another locality of equal area on the continent, if in the-wolid, that can excel this. Reconstructed. TorKKA, Feb.

15. Governor Humphrey has appointed Benjamin F. Simpson, of Topeka, J. C. Strang, of Lamed, and George S.

Green, or Manhattan, supreme court commissioners. The appointment will take effect March 1, and the terms of offices will cover a period of three years. He also appointed Samuel Parke, of Wiuficld, a member, of the state board of pardons. Still on Their Muscle. Kansas Citt, Feb.

18. A special from Pickardsville, John Boady, the owner of the building which was wrecked by the temperance crusaders last week, went to Lathrop, the county seat, to-day and sword out warrants for the arrest of sixteen participants in the affair. Thirteen of these warrants were for the arrelst of women and girls and three men. When the train from Lathrop on which the deputy charged with serving the warrants was expected to arrive drew up at the, station it was met by a crowd of fifty men and as many women who had determined that the warrants should not be served. The deputy sheriff made no attempt to discharge his duty to-day but says the warrants will be served to-morrow.

The crusaders and their friends say they won't. Trouble is anticipated. More Gas. Cherryvalk, Feb. second gas well has been struck here at a depth It 685 feet.

The New Crusade. Kansas City, Feb. 15. A special from Lathrop, says: The temperance crusaders met to-day at the residence of Mrs. J.

S. Stucky and formed a regular organization by electing Mrs. C. A. Kinney leader of the crusade.

It was determined hereafter to enforce the law governing the sales of liquor in a manner similar to that employed a week ago, when the stocks of several saloonists were destroyed. An address to the women of the country was drawn up, urging them to drive out the saloonists by force. Saloonkeeper Ward, one of the sufferers by the crusaders' raid, has not sworn out the warrants for the arrest of the women as he threatened to do. It is believed he will not go to law over the matter at all. All Old Settlers There.

Washington, Feb. 18. Tho Oklahoma territorial bill, as it passed the senate.con-tains a clause which emphasizes the home-rule Idea.
