Many per sons believe that it would be unwise for tiie new bridge company to secure the Maple Leaf line over its bridge on the ground that the old bridge company, tiudiog its rveau" almost wiped out, would make an ulioit to sell tho struc ture to Leavenworth and Plaite counties at about 15 ceuts on the dollar to enable these counties to make it a free bridge.

PEFFEIl SIZES UP The President, null Says in 23 Tl His Iti-putatlou Will lie Nothiug. Pittsburg, Aug. 10. A Washington special to the Dispatch says a majority of the so-called statesmen who inhabit this town act like timid white rabbits. Each sits trembling behind his little bush of corruption, or hatching his fool ish little presidential egg aud shivers with fright if anyone asks him to talk. Beside these shivery citizens Senator Peifer of Kansas produces a most favora ble impression. He may be all sugar trust men and others say of him, but it is certain that honesty is included among his peculiarities and that he is not afraid to sav what he thinks. "What doyoutriiak the future will have to say of Grover Cleveland what wiil be his exaet standing iu history, and to what permanent achievement by him will future writers be able to point?" He thought about Cleveland, and he said: "Mr7 Cleveland had but one lead ing idea when he entered national poli tics, and that was to reform tariff legis lation. He is a man of strong convic tions and honest purposes. Had he been permitted to have his own way he would have accomplished a great deal of good, but social and financial influences were too strong for him. He has been moved out of his orbit, and now, like a wauder intr comet, is getting further and further away from the original one idsa which constituted his intellectual habitation. He will not get another idea, aud his Erst one has been lost. He has failed utterly to fulfill the promise of his national be ginning. "The president's affiliation with finan cial interests has decreased his influence as a public man. He will pass away from the public stage. Tlie Democratic party will soon be disbanded. lis lifo is about run. Grover Cleveland will pass away with it In twenty-five years it will be seen that nothing in Air. Cleveland's public career made any real impression on the history of his country. "Only the" man who succeeds in actu ally accomplishing a great reform, or one who sows great seel which actually ripens iu time can hope to be remem bered." "Please try to imagine yourself a his torian iifty years from now and writing a short child's history of America. Tnen dictate exactly what you think would bo your chapter on Grover Cleveland." Air. Peller folded lus long, thin hinds in his long, thin lap and posed his face in his long, thin beard aud dictated this chap ter of the future child's history : "Grover Cleveland his public career illustrated the possibilities of develop ment among common people or a Dem ocracy. His position in history is about the same as Harrison, I' dk or Garfield." Air. Peli'er then changed the subject. He said: "The next house of representatives will have a big majority of Republicans. That is perfectly certain. '1 he Demo cratic party will never recover from ils present disorganization. It is divided against itself, and curiously enough it is divided upon ttie same lins as those upon which the entire people of the nation are divided. It is a division of labor against capital. "The idea that tlie tariiT vacillation has had all to do with this panic and depres sion is fallacious, although it will help greatly in the killing of ilie Democratic party. The country has reached the stage where something has to be d me. The first step will be the national owner ship of railroads." Air. Peifer was good enough to express his opinions of a number of great men. 'Men great in all d.rectious," said he, "are very few-, if any really ever existed. Abraham Lincoln, Julias Cseaar and Na poleon Bonaparte came nearer to univer sal greatuess than any men in history. In the senate, John Sherman is the greatest man in the old school of finance. In political history Morgan of Alabama is the ablest senator. In mod ern finance Senator Jones of Nevada ex cels them ail. As a political worker the shrewdest man is Chandler. Gorman is the shrewdest politician. Hill's trouble is too much courage. That's why Gor man beats him as a politician. Hill does not care whether he has one man agaiost him or a thousand When his mind is made up he goes ahead. "Air. Reed of Alaine is one of the men who do not help the world along. He takes it as he finds it, gets what he can out of it and leaves it, so far as he is concerned, just where it was when he came upon it. But he is a brilliant man, despite his lack of valuo to his race." X 0 KTll TOPEK A. Items of Interest 1 fo.n the Nurt U S1J of i t . i j j ..

An Arctic Plant That Is llemarkabla la More Ways Than One. "One of the greatest curiosities I sver met with in my travels," said Professor Philip L. Newman of Cin iinnati, "is the sunflower that blooms in the northern portion of Siberia, i where the earth is continually covered j with a coating of snow aud frost. I This wonderful plant shoots from the frozen soil on the first day of the year, I and roaches the height of about three I feet; it blooms on the third day, re j mains open twenty-four hours, and then returns to its original elements. It shines for a single day, then tha stem, leaves, and flower a re converted into snow. The leaves are three in number. "The flower is star-shaped, its pet als about as long as the leaves and about half an inch wide. The third 'lay the extremities of tha leaves show little glistening specks. like diamonds, about the size of the head of a pin. These are the seeds of this queer flower. I was told that on one occa sion some of these seeds were gath ered and hastily transported to St. Petersburg. They were there placed in a bed of snow, where they were kept nntil the first of tlie following year, when the sunflower burr,t forth and was greatly admired and won dered at bv all who saw it" FAR SEEING EGYPTIANS. Why They Waved Wild I'alm Branches Over Iiate Palm Flowers. More than one thousand j-ears ago Herodotus observed a remarkable cus tom in Egypt, says' Professor Drum mond. At a certain season of the j-ear the Egyptians went into the des ert, cut oif branches from the wild palm and. bringing them back to their gardens, waved them over the flowers of the data palm. Why they per formed this ceremony they did not know, but they knew that if they neglected it tlie date crop would be poor or wholly lost. Herodotus offers the quaint ex planation that along with these branches there came from the desert certain flies possessed of a "vivific virtue," which somehow lent an ex uberant fertility to the dates. But the true rationale to the incantation is now explained. Palm trees, like human beings, are male and female. The garden plants, the date bearers, wera females, the desert plants were males and the waving of tiie branches over the females meant the transfer ence of the fertilizing pollen from the one to the other. THE MASHER'S MISTAKE. A Thick Veil Oeluilud Him and Spoiled a Suggestion of Supper. An elderly lady who keeps a fash ionable New York school, and who lays no claim to good looks, tells the following as a joke on herself: "The other night I left t ie home of a friend half a mile above my house. It was pouring with rain. I had on a heavy mackintosh and a thick veil, but no umbrella. I started to walk home, when a swell-looking young man approached, rais-ed his hat with a' mashing smile, and asked me to come under his umbrella. 1 took his arm with a smile and walked with him to my door. He said sweet things all the way. When I reached my door I thanked him for his sheltering escort. He suggested a little supper. I said: "'Young man, whom do you take me for?" at the same time raising my veil and looking at him in the full glare of the electric light. He jumped half way across the street and cried: " -The devil'.' " Impossihle Under tlie Circumstances. A gentleman, acaompanie 1 by a lady wearing a handsome dress and boa net, came out of the Albert Hall one night to find it raining, while they were without umbrella or waterproof clothing. "Why, Charles:"' the lady cried, "it's raining." "So I see," said Charles, calmly. "Well, what shall w-e do?" "I rather think we shall have to let it rain," replied the matter-of-fact husband. Excited by the disaster awaiting her garments, the lady amused the bystanders greatly by saying: "Why, Charles, how can we, when I have on this light dress and bonnet?" Jand Concert at arll;-(d Park.

The grain mar kets today were decidedly quieter and steady than they have been during the past lew days; in fact they appear to have resumed their normal condition. A feature of today's trading was the strong preference which speculators showed for the Alay future over Septem ber, the latter beintr comparatively neg lected aud the former becoming the lead ing option. There was a straggling shower here this morning which gave the market a temporary weak turn, but it rallied again ou firm cables, reports of no raiu3 in the corn belt and high tem peratures yesterday with hot winds. Another factor iu the firmness was the country buying, though the orders from that source were not so uniform as here tofore. Some buying to sell.
