Lawton, Ok., Jan 23.—News has reached here of the accidental killing of Oliver Marlar, 14 years old by The Kansas City Times declares ite belief in Mr, Niedringhaus’ defeat {n the following editorial: ‘Even those Republicans who are sticklers for “regularity” must now see that there is scarcely the remotest possi billty for the election of either Nied- ringhaus or Kerens, Therefore, they look to the supporters of both to ar- rive at a satisfactory compromise within a reasonable time. The Nied- ringhaus men have the advantage for they are “regular.” Butif they once admit that they cannot elect their man, they can force the Kerens supporters to one of two things—to accept a strong compromise man like Major William Warner or to see the election go to Mr. Francis M. Cock- rell Andindue time just such an alternative should be placed before the Kerens faction. Negroes Try to Kidnap Girl, Evangyille, Ind.

Jan 26.—Hornets took possession of the barroom in the Empire hotel yesterday. A few days ego the proprietor bought a hornets nest from a farmer and hung it over the bar. The heat in the room brought the nest to life. The horp- ete thought it was summer and, be- ing hungry proceeded to get busy. The bartender ran out covered with the insects, and.a number of other persons fullowed yelling like Indians. The hornets held posses- sion until a big policeman, covered with a netting, carried out the nest, ‘The bartender was taken to the hos- pital with both eyes closed.: a Democrat of West Plaine, gave tes- timony corroborative of Represent- ative Cook’s charges that he was offered patronage for his vote’ by friends of Niedringhaus. Cook had testified that ‘2 offers to him were made through his attorney, M. E. Morrow, who had made his campaign for him, Cook being ill for some time during his ‘campaign. Catron said he had heard that Grant Gillespie, an agent in the treasury department, had offered to resign to make way fo. Morrow if Cook voted for Niedringhaus. It was unierstood that Morrow had the disposal of Cook’s -ote, Catron said, or at least Morrow had told him that. It developed that Cook knew nothing of the at- tempt to peddle his vote. As soon as Catron heard that efforts were belong made to secure Cook's vote tor Niedringhaus he went to St. Louis and told R. C. Kerens of tne matter, telling Kerens he might as well buy the vate as anybody. “I would buy no man’s vote,” Cat- ron testified Kerens replied. “I do not want to get votes that way.” - The other men from West.

The cranky Pro- hibitionist is opposed to Mr. Nied- ringhaus because he took jJonations from the brewers and credited it to bis own account.

Until Mr. Davenport bears from Dr. Hill, he will take no further steps in the race question raised by the recent appointment.

Akins, who now says that he did not know Hill was a negro. The bureau hopes Dr. Hill will help them out of the dilemma by resign- ing.

It wohad organized the state and had put some practical engineer at the head of the work years ago we could now show something for our money in road work. We haven't built twenty miles of good roads in Missouri, ex ceptin Jasper and Jackson and a few counties where the liquor license is used on the roads. Poll taxes should be paid in cash in Missouri. We need aconstitutional amendment whereby the state can aid the coun- ties in building roads. New York has the afd plan and the state con- tributes $600,000 every vear to its roads. New Jersey givea one-third, the county gives one-third and the farmer along who’s land the road runs gives one-third. Put thetramp and the vagrants to work and let them help to build the public road.” Tin and Repair Shop.

Warsaw, Jan. 24.—The events at St. Petersburg have agitated the whole land, for, in spite of official reticence and the Vigilance of the Police, they are becoming known throughout Russia, A meeting of laborers here yester day declared for the-solidarity of laborers everywhere, and demanded the immediate calling of a pariia- ment. x Handbills have been distributed thronghout .the city preaching in- the | ®urrection and.calling upon the peo- by. ple to riee and@rm themeelves from =: Patriots Ask Privilege of vruonert ot Montgomery introduced Petitioning Their Ruler.

The priest, Gopon, the leader and idol of the men, in his golden vest- ments, holding aloft the cross and marching at the head of thousands of workmen through the Narvagate, miraculously escaped a volley which laid low a half a hundred persons. The figures of the total number killed or wounded here, at the Mos- cow gate, at various bridges and islands and at the Winter Palace vary. The best estimate is 500 al though there are exaggerated figures placing the number as high as5,000. Many men were accompanied by their wives and children, and in the confusion, which left no time for dis- crimination, the later shared thefate of the men. The troops with the exception of a single regiment, which is reported to have thrown do +n its arms, remain- loyal and obeyed orders. = But the blood which crimsoned the snow has fired the brains and pas- sions of the strikers and turned the women as well as men into wild beasts and the ery of the populace is fur vengeance, Thesympathy of the middlec'agseés is with the workmen.
