Wismer returned from his eastern trip Thursday. He visited Topeka, Law- erence, Parsons and Lee Summit. The newspapers have been unusually erowded of late with sad and sometimes terrible stories of the ruin and death of young, girls, of abortions, infanticide, and suicide. Indeed, the crimes of seduction, abduction, and outrage in this line have grown to be a tidal wave of vice and shame and the time has come when the law should place a strong hand on all of it. Such matters has grown to be so common that.

in a general waj the stealing of a young woman's honor doesn't amount to as much as stealing her pocket-hankerchief, and yet it generally entails more misery, shame, and vice than all the stealing which is done. Societies for the protection of this, that, and the other have sprung up all over the countrj', but nc society for the protection of that greatest jewel female virtue seems to have been thought of. It is to' be hoped tliat I hat the coming session of the legislature will deal effectually with this matter, and in the meantime the natural guardians and protectors of young girls their parents and brothers and older sisters will do well to attend more closely to the goings and comings of the girls, and prevent the frequent results of too much trut and confidence in other associates.

From a private letter, this morning we are informed that an arrest for forgery will probably be made in Marion this week. Who is it? The Iiock Island graders were ready to go to work between Marion and Peabody this morning but the cold weather oid not permit.

William Vassen, one of the Wyandotte train wreckers, made confession last Friday morning, and gives the whole thing aw ay who did it and how it was done.

We believe that Smith yawped at some vacant chairs in this city not long ago. An indignant citizen wants to know why the'eitj' authorities allow merchant to fill up the sidewalks with boxes and other obstructions equally destructive to the shins.

Our answer is, assist the merchants to -unpack the goods they are receiving every day, speak to the city marshal and keep your shins in your pocket. Col. Baker, of the Iiock Island, returned to Marion to-day. He has lieen down in Pratt county for the past few weeks, and reports everything sailing smoothly for his road down there.

This cold morning the reporter was sent olf on a "wild goose cha3e" by being told that a crtiel wife beating had occurred in a certain -part' "of the city.

Jokes of this nature might be appreciated on the first day of April, but with the thermometer knocking at the bottom of the machine to get OHt, and a cold, raw wind blowing we do make a most decided kick on the imposition. The fool-killer should play an engag-ment out in Hodgeman county he is needed there. Christmas day one Johnson while handling a revolver carelessly snapped it at a lady friend, and she received a 32-calibre bullet in the breast. Of course he did rrot know it was loaded.

Marion Makes Another Catch in the Railroad Circle. She Angles for the Pennsylvania Central, And Gets an Encouraging Nibble from that Road- "It has been known forjthe past six months that the Pennsylvania Central, one of the oldest roads on the continent, has been quietly at work extending its great line to the mountains and the south, under the charter of the Chicago, Kansas Texas Railway. This company has a continuous line of subsidies voted from Kansas City to and through Grant township in Marion county. Last week representatives of that; road arrived in Marion to make over-j tures to this city to the effect that they wanted to make Marion a point on their line, and wanted to know the feeling of our city. A meeting was called Satnrday afternoon to consiner the matter and inaugurate, vigorous preliminary measures.

The question of electing a director from this city was fully canvassed, and the honor was bestowed upon Mr. W. A. Stanford a good man in a good place.
