They came upon a country bar- beeve, wherein a grove people were dancing and making merry. Alarge space had been cleaned off in anopen spot, and in the center a country string band was furnishing music. On the outskirts men and boys were drinking hard cider from barrels, drunk and the county officers could do nothing with them. The Salva- tionists were almost paralyzed.

Columbus, 0., Sept. 26 —Alonzo Weed, the dwarf tramp mayor of Amesville, Athens county, hae been released from the workhouse here, af ter serving a term for drunkenness. “Me back to the road,”’ said Weed. “No more palace cars for Lon Weed.

Just say to my friends that Iam out of jail, out of office and out for the coiv.” Weed was a tramp and came to Amesville just prior to the election last spring. He was nominated for mayor as a joke, and when the votes were counted it was shown that both candidates received the same num ber. Straws were drawn and Weed won CASTONRIA. Bears the Tho Kind You fave Always Bought To Bar the Toy Pistol. | Chicago, Sept. 26 —Because of the / wholesale carnage wrought by the | toy pistol and cannon cracker in Chicago and other cities July 4, an j effort will be made in the city council | to prohibit the sale and discharge of such weapons and explosives in the eity limits of Chicago. Two ordi- nances directed against the death dealing devices have been drafted and will be introduced at Monday night’s session of the council. The ordinances are to be introduced early in order that no hardship may. be worked on the dealer, and that full notice may be given him that it is useless to stock up with the prohib- ited articles.

ORIGIN OF A FEUD,| Choice Kansas “Town Row” Traced | to Its Beginning. Investigation Made by an Editer Whe Finds a Woman at the Bottem of It—More Than Ferty Years @i4, One of the choicest possessions of’ Emporia, Kan., is its celebrated “town row.” Bent Murdock, editor of the El Dorado Republican, has been investigat- ing its origin and bas found a woman at the bottom of it. Here ts his faithful re- port of the case, recently published by William Allen White, ta the Emporia Gazette: “The Emporia town row started in the summer of 1859. Plumb, Eskridge, Stotler, Proctor, Bancroft, Bundrem, Hill, Cooper and others were unmarried and were the Emporia hot stuff. A dance was given at Phillip’s place, on Duck creek, that summer, and, although it was a dozen or fifteen miles away, all the Emporia young men went. There was a blooming widow in Em- poria—she was not exactly a widow, but her husband didn’t count—and each young man sent an invitation to the widow to the dance, and the vendetta was on. Plumb won out and on the eve- ning of the dance they all went over to Duck Creek on horseback. Some with girls and some without—girls were mighty scarce those days. “Well, when they got to dancing all the other Emporia boys agreed to boy- cott Plumb's girl, and not one of them danced with her during the evening; and the war was on; and is on to this day. “During the civtl war a sort of peace was declared. Piumb was in the army, while Eskridge was at home running things his way. It-was in 1866, if we remember, that Eskridge was out for the legislature. The soldiers had returned home, and they immediately trotted out Plumb, who was elected, an dthis re- vived the town row, “About this time H. C. Cross landed in Emporia, He was an Ohio stockman, and had a bunch of sheep. Failing with sheep, he studied law; and although he had no money, he soon tarted a bank fn opposition to the Plumb bank, and from then on ft was pull Dick, pull Devil. But Plumb won out as United States senator, but in all his fights he had to placate the Cross crowd. built, Plumb took the Cross crowd into the construction company. Plumb was away and Cross managed the job, got the money, but did not divvy up. Asa matter of fact, a large sum was due the Plumb crowd, about $75,000, if we re- member, but Cross never spoke of it to Plumb afterward. Although Cross and Plumb and nearly all the other original participants in the Emporia town row are dead, the row goes merrily on, and it begins to look like {t would go on for- ever.” GRAFTS FROG SKIN ON HAND. University of Michigan Surgeon Per- forma Interesting Operation on a Furnitare Workman, The unusual experiment of grafting frog skin on the hand of a patient has been successfully performed at the homeopathy hospital of the Michigan university at Ann Arbor by Surgeon Westfall. workman of Adrian, had his hand caught in a sander and lost some 2” inches of skin on the palm and back of his hand. At first skin from the pa- tient’s leg was transplanted on the hand, but the operation was slow and pain- ful. Dr. Westfall then secured a large live frog, and, after destroying its brain, thoronghly cleaned the skin, sliced the white skin off its belly and placed the particles on the area to be covered. These grafts were covered with very thin rubber tissues and that surrounded by dressing moistened by a common salt solution. After 96 hours the whole dressing was removed. The frog skin grafts had united, the granu- lation on the surface of the raw hand had -penetrated--up-throurch-the-froz skin and projected beyond the surface of the latter, so that the whole sur- face appeared red. The cells in the frog skin had begun to grow and coy- ered the whole surface with new stir Mr. Witte expected to leave the hos- pital in a few days with his hand com- pletely healed. SOME ODD SUPERSTITIONS. ° They Are of Special Interest to Moth- ers, Marringenble Maids and Pretty 6 “Up in Bucks county,” safd a Phila- delphia traveler recently, “an old wo- man recounted to me some old supersi- tions. These, she declared, she and all her friends believed in implicity. “One regarding new-born babies. When a baby is taken for the first time into a strange house to dine an egg and a piece of bread should be given to it by the house's owner. Oth- erwise the child will have bad luck for ten days. “Another regarded marriageable maids. When a maiden is shelling peas she should, {f she find a pod with nine peas in it, put It over the house door; then the first young maa to en- ter the house through the door will many her.” Many Would Probably Be Willing. Possibly there are people, says the Chicago Chronicle, who agree with Mr. Carniegie as to the disgrace of dying rich, but most of them would be willing to take chances of that humiliating end if they had a sure thing on living rich for a few years. . Caution Needed. The Kansas prohibitionists will be cautious for a time about praying for water, remarks the Washington Times. “Later on, when the Ottawa road was | ' Albert Witte, a furniture | * «MARKET REPORTS.

West Plaine, Mo., Sept. 26 —S Q. Porter, a farmer and breeder of fine stock, has disappeared from his home two miles north of thiscity. Three weeks ago he left here for Springfield to buy several cars of Angora goats. The following day he wrote to a friend here saying that be was bound for Alaska or the Philippine islands. Porter owns a fine farm. valued at $10,000, and stock and machinery worth more than $3,000. His credi- tors have attached his property for ness. It is believed that Porter's mind has become affected. Several years ago, while resijent of Panora, la, he disappeared and s-veral months later was found in Louisiana, working in a saw mill. At that time his father, a wealthy eastern paper manufacturer, paid his indebtedness and brought him home. Porter is a Chapter Mason. Ne . — Worth $100,090 to Arrest Him.
