R. R. A fatal accident Was met by Mark M. Thompson, as he was driving about the streets of Kansas City in a sleigh just after noon Monday. His horse took fright and started to run, and turning sharply upset the sleigh.

It was found that Mr. Thompson had fallen on his head and sustained two fractures of the skull, one ear was torn and internal injuries were received. He was picked up unconscious and died at about eleven o'clock that night. His remains have been shipped to Green-leaf, for imterment in Maplewood cemetery and funeral services are being conducted today at the Lutheran church by Elder La Baron. Mr.

Thompson is about forty-five years old, and for yeat3 was engaged in the stock business near Greenleaf. Five years he entered the employ of the Stoller Commission Company at Kansas City as buyer, which position he has held ever since. lie was an exceptionally shrewd business man. Fifteen women, several preachers and a number of college students met -with Mrs. Nation at three o'clock one morning last week, and wanted her to lead them On a crusade to smash every joint in Topeka, but her manager, Mr.

Rankin, would not let her go as he had contracted to exhibit her at a number of places and could not afford to let her run the chances of an accident. Then she Mr. Rankin left for the trip, going first to Kansas City, thence to DesMoines, but before getting out of Iowa they dissolved partnership, Mrs. Nation proving to be a poor drawing card. Governor Stephens, of Missouri, loaned $30,000 to publishers of country papers in that state a few years ago when he was running for office in many cases starting new papers, and taking mortgages on the plants.

Now that he is retiring from office and politics in general, he is foreclosing all mortgages and the newspapers formerly favored are on the anxious seat. Some are charging up all the good things they have said about Stephens at 5c a line. A report was lecently published in a Paris paper stating the United States would try a new way of civilizing the Indians by placing 5,000 squaws on the matrimonial market and giving each marrying a white man some land and a dowery of $10,000. The department at Washington has since received bushels of letters enquiring about it.

People who have read Bryan's pa per say it has a sort of a Coin's Fi nancial School rinf to it. A crowd of men and women and boys smashed a joint at Winfield early yesterday morning. Alorton Albaugh has the guberna torial bee buzzing around, his head. It is a little eaaly in the season for bees. The state senate has passed an a- mendment to the prohibatory law, making possession of liquor evidence of guilt.

Mrs. Nation met a frost in Chica go. That city thinks she has seen greater sights than a Kansas joint-smasher. The papers say Mrs. Nation has lost her voice.

What Kansas people are interested in is to know whether she has lost her hatchet. 300 Milwaukee people have been married. before tbier divorce papers were recorded and their hurry will give them the trouble of getting married again. Congressman Calderhead has introduced an act to amend the disability pension law, so that a person totally disabled can draw as high as $30 a month. Last week a Missourian sent Mrs.

Nation a broadax with instructions to "Give 'em This is a rather blunt suggestion for a woman who is guided entirely by God. The Boers are only hoping to tire the British out. They have captured several thousand British prisoners, but have been forced to them loose, having no place to keep them. Jeffries and Ruhlin have been doing a whole lot of running around to find a suitable place for them to fight tomorrow night. The prize-fighting industry is having a hard time to stand up against the laws of so many states.

A very fine time is reported to have been enjoyed by those who attended the Royal Neighbors bo supper Saturday night. There were seventeen ladies and nineteen gentlemen present and the boxes auctioned oiF for a little more than $8. Kansas City has a horse doctor who is very humane. He said that on account of so many people owning horses who could not have them doctored, he could not stand it to see the poor dumb animals suffer, so offered to treat them free Friday of each week. The first day he had sixty patients.

The snow Thursday night and Friday morning was a great thing for wheat, but a bad thing for roads. The east-bound night passenger was snowed up at Scottsville and at 1:30 p. m. Friday, the snow plow, with Nels Johnson as engineer, Elmer Gay, fireman; and J. E.

Heshiotl, conduc tor; and a large force of hands was sent from here to help her out. The snow plow stuck at Day for several hours, but finally went on and cleared the track.

The Washington branch was not operated Friday and trains on the main line were" belated for several days. Rev.

Keyser's second sermon on Baptism at the Luthern church last Thursday night was considerable of a scorcher. He furnished rather convincing evidence that the Jews had practised ha prism by sprinkling from the days of Moses to the time of Christ, also brought up the original Greek to show that the words for baptism could mean to sprinkle, pour, Of wash as well as to dip or plunge also showed that the Greek word for into could be translated in or at, while the word for out of could be translated from. The temperance lecture by Rev. H. G.

Frasier at the Methodist church Tuesday was not particularly eloquent, but it was very practical. Rev.

needs fixing. He regrets that the changing of the pulleys and belts of his office from overhead to the basement of his building pleases his enemy, F. W. Stackpole. A Christian should get above revenge, not alone for his own sake, but because it brings a reproach upon the church he represents.

A bill now before the Kansas legislature will help out the poor liar of a newspaper man if it passes. It provides that if a paper libels you, you can sue for only $100 unless you can show an actual damage in dollars and cents beyond that amount. Again, you are cut out entirely if the newspaper retracts the libel. At Holton a mob of 1,000 people started out to smash joints the other day. One was anihilated during the progress of which the others loaded up their wet goods and left town.

Topeka is now as jointless as an oyster, sixty saloons having quit the town the result of the hatchet army being 2,000 strong. Is the hatchet the implement with which to regulate? At Osage City there was a quarrel in the colored Babtist church. One faction pulled out and started to build a new church. When half members who had staid with the old church, turned out with hatchets and tore the new church down.
