The varieties of human nature are drawn in a masterly manner in "By Wits Outwitted." The unraveling of this charming story is exceptionally clever. The play is replete with sparking wit, while the action of the piece abounds in funny situations.

Refreshing as well as commendable is the fact that although "By Wits Outwitted" relies largely on its humor to please, the same is lofty and refined and does not force this cleyer company of comedians to descend to the level of buffonery to create a laugh. A close observer cannot fail to notice the rapidity with which the Chioago Herald has come into general circulation.

Whit Reed and Birdie Able surprised their friends a week or two ago by quietly getting marred but the friends got in a return suprise on Monday night, by unceremonously swooping down on the bridal pair in their cosy parlors with loads of good things to eat, and having a mutually delightful evening. Things being now eyened up in the surprise departments, social life has resumed its usual gentle pace. The Rev.

A. S. Lucas has transfered the management of the Weekly Herald to his son Harry Locus whoes satutatory appears in the last issue. The first move of the manager was to change it from all at home print to a "patent outside," and in this he shows good sense. During these stringent times economy in expenses has to be armed at and rigidly practiced or our county paper especially Populist paper will edly go down.

T. P. Fulton went up to Topeka on Monday to confer with a few other poli tical doctors on the case of the Democratic party. It has alway been a sickly thing in this state. The little sips of Cleveland pop it has had lately, has put a semblance of new life into it.

The doctors concluded if it could only get more pap and still more pap, and also pie and things it, would get big and strong -but how to get these refreshments--ah, well, that is under consideration, It is not generally known what a vast plant it requires to publish and circulate a metropolitan newspaper. The Chicago Inter Ocean has in its Circulating Department alone nearly one hundred men and women, not to mention the carriers who deliver the paper to all parts of the city before breakfast every morning. It may be mentioned that no kind of weather, however severe, is permitted to interfere with this delivery in any way. Of this large force, about one-half of them work through the day at ordinary office or clerical work and the other half began late at night and work until about daylight, preparing and addressing the wrappers, counting and wrapping the papers "routing" and malling the bundles, Their work is of the most difficult nature and is done in the quickest possible manner, and yet so well is it done that it seldom happens that a single bundle or paper of its immense edition of nearly 100,000 reacnes its destination on other than the right train and at. the right time, unless delayed by accident.

The system is wonderful and its operaalmost perfect. The Allison Murder. The preliminary hearing of Levi Moore, A. Brownfield, and Wm Wiles began before Justice T. J.

Linsenbee at Cherokee yesterday, and Moore was put on the witness stand by the state and made a confession.

Afterwards he and Wm. Wiles were at Scammon, and had some talk about robbing Allison again, and later in Chas, Savory's joint at Cherokee the matter talked over between himaelf, Wiles, and Brownfield, and a plan formed to do the work, This was on the 16th of January, and it was decided to commit the robbery that night. They met between 6 and 7 o'clock that evening, and while on the way to Allison's house it was arranged that Wiles and Brownfield should enter the house and he (Moore) remain outside.

He said he gave Wiles his revolver, and Brownfield exhibithed one of his own. Upon arriving at the house Moore station were he could watch the surroundinga, and if anybody approached he was to give a signal by throwing a stone against the weatherboarding. Wiles and Brownfield went inside, and elmost immediately there were two shots fired almost at the same moment. In about twenty minutes the two came cut, and stated that they had to kill the old man, as he came at them with a corn knife and was also trying to get a revolver out ot his pocket. Wiles said he had shot him, when Browngeld spoke up and said he had not done SO much before he did as he shot about the same time.
