Before -Mrs. Nation got away she ha.,
trouble First the bother of replevy

tion of mind, and then she found that
the mills of justice grind slowly and
that she would have to wait her turn
before the bar. Then she was vet
much t'.ustrated over a small matter "i

few months, b'ne must have pained a
dozen pound yesterday, for she tried
to sit ouietly in the court roon. ' I
feel as tnoug.t 1 should jump up and
holier in a minute." she said, and
everybody advised her to do it. But
sh.o didn't.
Th fust round of the day's pleasure
came when she decided to replevin
some property from Mrs. Mary E.
White. Mrs. Nation and Mrs. White
live in the same house at 5.0 Van Kuren
street, an 1 thev have been living lately
in a state of siege. There have been
family iars as big. as washtubs since
Mrs. White sued Mrs. Nation for
claimed to be due her as salary.
Yesterday Mrs. Nation informed fc' r
legal advisory board of one. W. I.
Jamison, deputy county attorney,
chairman, that she wished to replevin
some poods from Mrs. White. Her legal
advisory annex informed her that see
would have to deposit a bond amount
ing to twice the value of the goo Is.
Mrs. Nation appraised the goods at ,
and asked if a '' cash bond would do.
"Tou betf'her " said the leiral ad
viser, but he caught himself, and u-d
a 31 ore legal term, such as the in
demnity bond would be fully legal
were it in th sum of JO in cash."
"AH right." sai l Mrs. Nation, and she
produced S;0 in hard cash. "Anytime;
else?"
"The deposit for court costs will be
$3 more." sail the advisory board.
"Here." said Mrs. Nation, and she
produced another three dollars. The
advisory board wondered if she pro
duced money the way Herrmann gets
egc:s out of a handkerchief.
Marshal Stonestreet of the city court
was consulted. Ho wondered if Mis.
Nation could not get her stuff without
'his being in the game. He preferred to
stay out. Mrs. Nation and her ad
visory board consulted and something
was said about a fee for the associate
counsel. It was agreed upon, and the
law firm of Nation v. Jamison moved
on the outer works of the White
stronghold. Mrs. White was informed
that Mrs. Nalion wanted her "things."
Mrs. White was willing, so the law firm
and little Jakie Moore went to work.
In one of the rooms Mrs. Nation had
evacuated and Mrs. White had taken
possession of was a carpet. The carpet
was on the floor. The carpet was tacked
to the floor, when Mrs. Nation, her ad
visory board and Little Jakie Moore
went after it. Mrs. Nation commenced
with one corner and with a burr! a
whizz', and a ripppp! up came the car
pet and the tacks. The advisory board
stepped on the business end of a tack
and did a war dance while Mrs. Nation
kept right on "replevlning" and Little
Jakie -clapped his hands in time to the
ilanc; of the advisory board.
Mrs. Nation grabbed the carpet, some
pictures, a few other things and re
treated from Mrs. White's outer trench
es and fed to her own kopje in the
front part of the house.
All was well for a time. The advisory
board returned to the cool recesses of
the court house to recover and Little
Jakie smiled and went out in the back
yard to whistle. Along: about 2 o'clock
Mrs. Nation remembered that she had
$.".3 on deposit with her legal advisor.
She also remembered she was to play
the part of Africanus and move o"i
Carthage but that her move was dif
ferent than that of the old Roman gen
eral for she was to receive half the gate
receipts. Her train was to leave at 2:3'.
She made a run for the court house
Bhe whirled into the office of the clerk

"Where's my money?" she shouted
Ed Good hid behind a waste basket
Mrs. Nation made a 20 yard run to the
office of the clerk of the district court.
"Where's my money?" she shouted.
"Shell" Curtis hadn't seen SO cents in
four weeks and told her so. Across the
hall went Mrs. Nation. She found Jam
ison in his office.
"I want my j;3." she yelled. The jury
in the district court heard her and the
trial they were hearing- was posf-poned
while they adjourned to the seat of
war.

"I want my money," shouted Mrs.Na

don't -i excited."
"Who's excited?
my $.73."
By that time the room was crowded
and Lawyer Jamison was getting ready
to find the cash.
"I need the money," said Mrs. Nation
and some unkind person began whist
ling the rag time tune of that name.
"Well you seel madam, there is a small,
ah, eh, legal foe which perhaps you
have overlooked," said Jamison.
"I never heard of the like. This is an
outrage I want my money."
"Madam, I have retained my fee and
here is the balance," said Jamison as
he handed her a wad of bills. "Is that
correct?"
"Yes," said Mrs. Nation as she hasti
ly counted the bills, gathered up her
skirts and fled for Carthage. Jamison
called for a fan and ice water and the
jury went back to the deliberations of
the case they were hearing.
DRAWING JTO A CLOSE.
The Morrison Caae Goes to the Jury
This Morning.
El Dorado. Kas., June 26. B. R. Ley
dig made the closing argument for the
state in the Morrison case, and had
delivered an eloquent and convincing
piea of an hour and a half when court
adjourned at 5:30 o'clock until Wednes
day. Mr. Leydijf finished his argument
this morning and the case was given
to the jury. The jury will be kept out
all week before it is discharged if
trouble is had in reaching a verdict.
Judge Aikman has received a num
ber of letters, some commending his
conduct in the trial and some condemn
ing his course. One of the letters ac
cuses him of pursuing the same course
that Judge Wofford did in the Ken
nedy case at Kansas City, and warns
him to look out if Jessie Morrison is
convicted.
FIRED BY LIGHTNING.
Chicago Medical College is En
tirely Destroyed by Flames.
Chicago, June 26. During a heavy
thunderstorm Tuesday night a bolt of
lightning struck the College of Physi
cians and Surgeons, on Harrison street
between Wood and Honore streets.
Fire which followed the lightning in a
short time destroyed the college build
ing, which was one of the finest of its
kind in the west. The lightning struck
the college squarely on the top of a
rising projection in the front part of
the roof, and such a tremendous crash
of thunder accompanied the flash that
all the people in the neighborhood
thought an explosion had taken plaoe
in the college. Al.most before the first
tire engines had arrived the flames had
spread all through the five stories of
the building.
Adjoining the college is the smallest
building of the West Side hospital,
which is tilled with patients, about 100
being in the various wards. As soon as
it was seen that the college could not
be saved, and its walls were liable to
fall at any time, the work of removing
thJ patients from the hospital began.
Rain was falling heavily at the time,
but fortunately there are so many hos
pitals and medical institutions in the
neighborhood that it was necessary to
remove the patients but a short dis
tance .most of them being taken to the
county hospital, one square away. The
firemen and the attendants at the hos
pitals did most of the moving, carrying
the invalids on beds, cots, stretchers or
whatever cam-? to hand. None of the
hospital patients were injured.
The College of Physicians and Sur
geons is the medical department of the
University of Illinois. situated at
Champaign. 111. The loss on building
and equipnent is practically total, and
will approximate J200.000.

were at work on street improvements.
At Mill and Commercial streets they
encountered 50 laborers employed by
the Rochester Gas and Electric com
pany in digging a trench, and advanceii
on them and drove them from the

O'clock This Afternoon.

Star from El Dorado, Kan., says: At 2
o'clock this afternoon It was said that

the conviction of Jessie Morrison while
one was standing out for acquittal.
There are mutterings on the street that
it will not go w ell in El Dorado with one
man who would hang the jury. Judge
Aikman has no other jury cases set

the jury will be kept out until then if
necessary. The jury has not been per
mitted to go to lunch.
FALSE BURGLAR ALARM.
Police Think They Detect Silk Thieves
in Mills Store.
For a time last night it was thought
that another silk robbery was in prog
ress at the Mills Dry Goods company's
store, and the police were about to
make the greatest catch of the cen
tury, but they didn't, and there was
no robbery.
W. C. Burgess, an electrician, spent
the greater part of the night repairing
the elevator motor. About 2 o'clock in
the morning a policeman discovered a
light in the basement and saw a man
working there. He called another offi
cer. "Silk robbery" was whispered,
and more policemen were summoned.
The front and rear of the store were
well guarded by officers with revolvers
and clubs. An officer was sent to th
home of W. W. Mills and he was called
out of bed and told that his store was
being robbed. Air. Mills is using
crutches on account of an injury to his
ankle, so he telephoned for Will Whit
ton to go to the store. When Whitton
arrived the matter was straightened
out to the satisfaction of all. the silk
robbery was declared off, the police
scattered, and today the elevator is
running.

Chicago: Eets are being made that

wheat. The big fellows are very bullish
on September corn.
Minneapolis grain receipts, 116 cars,
against 155 cars last year.
Cables are better this morning1 and in

breaks for good scalping profits.

Chicago grain receipts: Wheat, 29 cars;
corn. 355 cars: oats. cars.
Chicago: Looks like they are going to
bull September corn.
New York: The stock market was only
slightly unsettled in the opening dealings
as the after effect of yesterday's bank
ing disturbance. Supporting orders were
in the market and there were many good
gains mixed with fractional losses. Trad
ing was on only a moderate scale. "Union
Pacific advanced nearly a point, but lost
nearly all of it. and Hetropolitan Street
railway and New York. Chicago & St.
Louis rose about a point. St. Paul fell
i1 points, but rallied a sharp fraction
and Tennessee coal was off a. point. . The
oneninpr rise brought out moderate offer
ings which soon lowered Union Pacific,
Amalgamated Copper, People's Gas, Erte,
Metropolitan Street IHailway. Illinois
Central and Louisville from about 1 to
l3 points, and carried the market gen
erally a fraction below yesterday's close.
There was some improvements of prices,
but the inquiry was principally from the
short and the tone was hesitating.
Duluth grain receipts. 37 cars, against
S2 cars last year.
Kansas City grain receipts: Wheat, 40
cars: corn. 15 cars; onts. none. Last year
Wheat, 50 cars; corn, 42 cars; oats, 12

New York: Trading was spiritless and
as the market showed but little inclina
tion to better, profits were sought in Su
gar and Manhattan, and the rise was
wiped out. The ease with which these
stocks were forced below yesterday's
close stimulated selling Pacifies, grangers
and coalers, and the low prices of the
morning were made all around before
noon. St. Paul got 2 points under last
night and other leading stocks, including
the V. S. Steel stocks. 1 to 2 points. Busi
ness increased largely on the selling
movement. .Bonds were steady.

Co., Kansas City. Mo.
WHEAT Wheat opened stronger and
fractionally higher in sympathy with the
advance abroad. Pit shorts and commis
sion houses bought moderately at the
start, which was later increased to far
in excess of the selling. Offerings were
light throughout and trade was fairly
large. Some buying for fresh account
was reported and the market firmed to
ward the close, maintaining the small ad
vance. The weather continues intensely
hot throughout the west.
- CORN Corn started fractionally higher
and at the start there was a disposition
among local traders to buy on the hot
weather in the west. Longs covered on
the little advance and caused the market
to drop back some, but fresh country or
ders brought the market up again and
closed it near the ton.
PROVISIONS Provisions weak on
large hefg receipts and offerings were fair
at the start but were rapidly absorbed.
