tors. Shawnee county . people who hadn't
cotton ia their ear last night, can hear
the dull roaring of the coach shell in
them thU mornii g.
The Kepublicaaa were happy last even
ing and they oj ened their hearts and
pocketbookd ana mouths and sent sky
ward a noise and a glare that might have
drowned the wailing' and intendihed the
red of the inferno itself.
It waa a wildly joyous uight and every
8'rhiir on human acts and deeds was tem
porarily loosened and ttio public ffivem
to understand the t the town "itd."
And it took it tltiiost without saying
thank you.
It took it and tayed with it in a way
that 8oe:n9l to aa;au destruction. It ia
good that th-3 pavement was well
propped, for it would surely otherwise
have gone down ith the aurg-iug, gtru
plin aet of pe plo that rolled from side
to at ia of Kansa avenue in long Vienna
rolls an l yelled until the windows wav
ered before tae wave of sound.
Oh, what a nij? it it was ! Kansas has
never seen one like it before and
h id it not b3o f c r the in toxicatinjr joy
of her re lempliou she would nave been
shocked at her own druuk-Uke impetu
osity. 'l'urnel herself looae." That's what
a man said about it last night and if you
will say it yours ilf with a lonj breata
a il an emphatic accent you will say
m jre than you colli ia volumes of weait
gramma' ical Kugli-th.
The coram tiun tiaa to let folks know
it was thoi-e early in the afternoon and
when you went hauie to supper you felt
quite ure soimii )vv, that the anxiously
a. vailed Kepublican u.ifht hal arrived.
Kansas avenue looked like a day oil
lat:l.iiil I this morning with dead re
mo l, and people who were out last
liiht trying to tehave au i hear soma
thiu' f-H a sort of li.nl.su joy in giving
a partiag kick to the Lirakeu instrument
of torture tuat l y scattered alon the
e'reet and male t loos: like a wrecked
ti i shop. The bays were out early lo ak-
i ; r fur lire works that missed lire last
ii i e h t.
I uaiedlutely af:or supper last evening
Ka i-as avenue was swarming with peo
ji.o waiting for the bi para le and liaai
b 'iu d j?iiay. By half past 7 it was ouiy
with d.tlijulty you could got aloug the
8 reet at .til. If you hal a conversation
y u wanted to cairy on with anyone you
yollel it into his oar or else took him out
t i th-j I l to n ii. If you wanted to
got any here you took the middle of the
utreet and do lled ah)ug as if you were
i i a football gamtt. If you were a faot
b U!i-t it would have been good but
rut';er sevtro trair iag for you.
K. Tyb )iy s o ued to he on Kansas
avenue last uiyht, although many con
tend i hat the crowd was not so large nor

before the election.
llvary possible noise on earth seemed
to be there. There were half a dozaa
binds in the parade, and the public en
Jo ved their try muastic performances im
mensely. If they were playing nobody
kaew atrythiug atcut it. Tue small boy
with the tin cans aal the generally pret
t .' girl-with her li o atretched and swelled
over the ni i'ithpitce of a tin horn, were
there, and did tae best they could to in
spire terror in nervous people.
The parade did not get a good start till
S o'clock, but was a daady when it did
come, and the crjAil yelled itself almost
black in the face it each of the "lljats."
Most of the "ll )a;s" were very ood.
There was some little dissatisfaction
among the more squeamish people be
cause the lea.lit.g baud Marshall's
played a funeral dirtra and a cotHu was
c irried behind it. Perhaps these people
did u )t know that the entire affair was
advertised as the "funeral of Populism,"
an 1 the printed invitations read that
way.
The first parade was more than half an
hour in passmg and contained five
binds, nearly liny tloats and aeveral
flambeau clubs.
At about y o'clock the Toueka Flam
beau club of 10J man diseharif ing tire
wjtki came up tae street and made
things looK lime they hal dssig-ns
against the sky. They were followed by
the marching clubs with flambeaux.
Considering the crowd there were very
fe waccidents an i very little drunkenness.
The multitude was universally well be
haved, considering its rather tumultuous
joy, and the many visitors that came in
from a distance on excursion trains to
see the biggest ratification ever had,
went home nred out but in love with fo
paiia and her met i d of entertaining.

A NEW LUTlfEISAN TASTOIl.
As Usual They Anunifd Control of Kan

The only troutli with the demonstra
tion last tiight was that a lot of taura
people you don't like mistook liberty fur
license and assumed control of Kansas
avenue as soon as the crowd had become
slightly thinned. Many of them were
drunk and some were tough natur
ally, but it was an ugly combination
and they wanted everybody thev met to
tight or else take a drink. They were
the people who cf verpeem to get south
of Fourth street except on just such occasions.

The Church Will Get Out of Debt Before

The members of the EaUsh Lutheran
church, corner of Fifth anl Harrison
8tree'd, has not yet salectei a pastor to
succeed Kev. F. XL 1'orch, who re--ig-ned
and is now locate ! in Louisville, Ky.
The members of the church propose to
clear their churca of all indebtedness
befouB they call a new pastor even on
trial, and for that reason t.'ieir preaching
has been done during the past few weeka
and will be for several weeks to come,
by the retire 1 Lutheran preachers living
in the city, and lis v. Mr. .Noromni, pastor
of the Swedish Lutheran church.
Two Lutheran preachers, one who re
sides in Onio and the uthor in Illinois,
have notiiid the church council that
they would like to be considered candi
dates for the vacant pastorate, but their
applications have not been actd upon.
bume of the members of the church
aro favorably to issuing a call on trial,
to liev. Mr. Millar of Pennsylvania, who
was a classmate of Rev. F. XL Porch, the
late pastor of the church.
Mr. ilillar now has a wealthy congre
gation, but his wife is anxious to coma
west.
It is not likely tht a call will be is
sued to any one for several weeks and
possibly not uutil nest spring.
In a letter to a Topeka frienl, Hbt. F.
XI. Porch, who now lives ia Louisville.
Kentucky, says he has had an attack of
malarial fever since going to his new
borne, and on that account had to post
pone preaching his tirst aercion over one

probably gave their wrong names to the
police ollicera, appearel in a duet in
police court entitled ' Oh, my. Who Htole
de Hunk o Ham'r"' and roculv.d a irood
deal of applause for their artistic taste.
It seems from the evidence thut, al
though the bovs are only 10 years of
aa each, they were so drunk they lost
their recollection of the tea-things they
received at their motaer'a kuee and Jim
stole in the front door of D. P. Roainson's
