He has told me he is about to read a few remarks appropriate to the oc- casion, and as they will make me yery happy I am anxious to bear them and will beg him to let us hear them at once.

Down xer The St. Louis day express on the Missouri Pacific struck and instant- ly killed John Rex and Charles Cail of LaCross Kan., near Cecil station, two miles west of Independence, at 7,30 o'clock last night. At the point where the men were killed are double tracks and the men were walking tc- ward Kansas City on the east bound track. They stepped over on the west bound track to get out of the way of a reight train which was ap- proaching from the west and did not see the passenger train which was running at u high rate of speed to make up a few minutes lost | time. The engineer was very close upon them before knew of their presence and immediately sounded the whistle and attempted to stop his train but could not make them heer owing to the noise made by the freight train and could not stop his train in time to save them. Conductor Jim Hootin flagged the first east bound passenger train he met justas he reached Kansas City, and gave the conductor orders to pick up the men and take them to Independence. The remains were bad- ly mutilated and taken to Larkin’s undertaking rooms in Kansas City, where an examination of their effects showed their names and address. The acting coroner of Kansas City telegraphed to LaCross Kan., last night for news of their relatives and will hold an inquest to-day. As no money was found on their bodies they are supposed to have been tramps. he A Harrison Slate. Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 6.—The best opinion here in regard to the cabinet situation is that Blaine will be secretary of state; William Win- dom, secretary of the treasury, Rusk, secretary of war; Wanamaker, secre- tary of the navy, and Evarts, attor- ney-general. As General Harrison desires the treasury department to} go west it is reported on good au- thority that he has selected Windom for that place. The selection looked upon as a good one here. is i A Quiet Necktie Party- | Omaha, Neb..

Que of the works of the last grand jury was the indictment of a large number of persons on the charge of keeping bawdy houses and selling liquor without a licenese. Up to the present time the keepers of bag- nios have not been assessed for the illict sale of liquors and their indict- ment for the offense caused consid- erable surprise. The indictment brought about by the county license inspector, Mr. Willis. §The fine im- posed for selling liquor without a state and county license is uniformly $30 in these cases and the imposi- tion of this fine in conjunction with the fine of $200 for keeping » bawdy-houses is expected to have the effect of closing many of these disreputable houses. The criminal court was filled this | morning with women dressed in al! the hues of the rainbow, awaiting to be arraigned. Up to noon forty- three pleaded guilty to keeping baw- dy houses and one-half of that num- enterd the same plea to selling liq- uor without a license. The amount collected by Marshal MeGowan ag- gregated $10,087. Judge White ee- timates the total amount at more than $11,000.—Kansas City Star.
