The report goes that a man was bitten

ing, and that he went all the way to

We trust the announcement that

The coal dealers of this city complain
of a scarcity of this fuel and cay that it
is quite difficult to secure a sufficient
quantity to meet the demands of the lo
cal trade. When tbe Emporia and St
Louis railroad opens up the vast re
sources of the Rich Hill coal fields to
Emporia, this trouble will be obviated.
The twentieth annual meeting of the
State Teachers' association, which is to

Editoiis News: Pemit me, through
your columns to express my thanks to
those whose prompt action arrested the
threatened danger by fire to the Chica

which I live. It is most gratifying to
feel that the citizens of Emporia aro al
ways on hand to help each other.
Yours Truly,

An Empcria coal dealer writes to the
Commonwealth as follows:
I havo been handling coal in Kansas
tor eight years, and I find that short
weight is always the rule. I have had
cars come two tons short. If we could
get full weights, could get the coal
promptly and plenty of it, we could sell
at a cent per bushel cheaper than we do
now. I would not handle coal at all
only that it helps the lumber business
tn which we are engaged.

The engineer corps of the Kansas City
and Emporia railroad received the out
fit last week for which they had
been waiting. It consists of five large
tents, camp chairs, a drafting board
and other necessary appliances, which
were loaded on to a two-horse wagon last
Thursday and taken to Neosho Rap
ids, where tbe headquarters of the party
will be for a few days. The work of lo
cating the line is progres-ung sttisfac
torily under the direction or Chief En
gineer Beadle, who seems to be tbe right
man in the right place.
In reply to severs 1 questions asked
in reference to little Alta May Rich
ards, we would say - that shewas tea
months and four days old at the time of
her death. On Saturday, Sept. 24th, she
was awarded the firstpremium at our last
county fair, which was a Royal St. John
sewing machine, and on Monday follow
ing her photograph wa. taken, she wear
ing the dress she bad worn at the fair.
On Thursday evening Sept. 29th, she
was killed by the cyclone. Her photo
graphs, which are perfect representa

of L D. Fox & Co at 25 cents each, the
proceeds to be used to purchase a bead
stone to mark her grave in Maplewood

Music scholtrs, and especially those

Tho following ruling by State Super
intendent Specr is respectfully submit
ted to whom it may coucern : "A teach
ers' contract entered into by the district
board previous to the annual meeting
does not bind the board a j newly con
stituted. Tbe annual meeting has cer
tain stated powers regarding the em
ployment of teachers ; and ; it is only af
ter the electors of the district in such
meeting shall have left such matters un
determined, that the board has power to
determine the same and proceed to the
election of a teacher." . .. .
The popularity of tho local advertis
ing department of the Daily News is
due, ina large measure wo believc.to the
fact, that in addition to a thorough cir
culation, the prices charged are very
low and uniformly one rrice to all
three cents a line. It is much more sat
isfactory to us ai well as to tbe advertis
er to have a rate so cheap and popular
that every merchant can use - the
columns of Tub News - quite
freely, than it would be to havo one-half
or one-third the number of lines at five
or tcu cents a line.
Ia the Weekly News the rate for lo
cals is uniformly ten cents; for wants
and business notices in tho five cent col
umn, five cents a line. It is useless to
ask us to vary from these rates, as wc
believe in treating everybody alike aad
making no special charges. '
, Topeka Capital: Not quite a year ago
a tramp named Montgomery shot Harry
Morgan, a conductor on the Santa Fe
road, from which wound Morgan died
in the course of a few weeks. Mont
gomery was riding without paying his
fare, so Morgan put him off. The
former thereupon drew bis pistol and
deliberately phot the conductor. .The
other day, at Great Bend, the wise jury
which sat on the case solemnly declared
that Montgomery bad committed no
crime and that Morgan's death was due
to careless medical treatment. This
jury did not say that bad Morgan not
received the wound the doctors would
have killed him. - Such verdicts as this
arc a farce, a travesty on justice, land
opt-u the way to countless murders!' af
fording every possible opportunity lor
tho assassin to cscapo.
Commonwealth: Tho Hankla Broth
crs, of the Fitlh Avenuo,' bave leased
the new Hotel Windsor, and take pos
session as soon as the building is com
pleted and acceptfd from the contrac
tors, which will be about Christmas. It
is their intention to furnish the build-
iug in the latest modern style, and in
the very best manner possible. ; Tbe old
Tefl House has forever lost its identity
io this splendid Hotel Windsor, and
while the average Kanson "will sigh for
the days that will never come back," in
connection' with their sojourn with
the walls of the old rookery, yet they
will rejoice with Topeka when they be
hold the stately edifice that stands so
majestic on tbe site of the old ruins: A
history of all the 8ayin;rs and doings
within the walls of the old Kansas po
litical headquarters, would make a book
and one too, that would be read by every
body. But then the old laud marks
must disappear and give place to the re
quirements of au advanced civilization.
"The dark receaseb" of this political
pilgrim's home, have all disappeared
yet the many happy or unhappy memo
ries that cluster around it will live for
all time.
A Fropoaed Cbatn.e of Time ou the
Howard Ilraccli.
Eureka Herald: A request very large
ly signed has gone up from noward to
the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe offi
cials, asking that the time of the train
from Emporia to that place be changed
so as to come down lroui Emooria in the
morning and go back ia the afternoon.
At present the train leaves Howard about
five o'clock in the morning, and on the
return leaves Emporia at half past four
la tbe afternoon, and reaches Howard
somewhere between 10 o'clock that even
ing and 4 the next morning. Under
the proposed new arrangement persons
coming from Kansas City could leave
there on the night train which 'gets to
Emporia by 6 in the morning, and
those going to Kansas Citv or : other
points east could take the night train at
Emporia. People on this line could
thus spend the entire day in Kansas City
and lie absent only two nights in addi
tion. At present it takes aday to go and
a day to return making three days it is
necessary to be absent for - any one
wuo has business requiring a
day there. In the same way a
full day could be spent in Topeka with
an alisencc from home f f wnly two nights
in addition. There would doubtless be
am pie time for business nt Emporia bc
tweeu the arrival of the train in tho
evening and its return in the morning!
There may he objections such as do not
just now strike us, but individually we
believe we would favor tbe change. We
understand the company will not con
sent to mnkc tbe change unless the plan
is favored by our people. We suppose
an expression of their preferenca will be
ascertained in due lime.

On Wednesday night of last week at
about half-past 11 o'clock, the alarm
of fire was sounded by the : bell on
tbo engine house, and - at tbe same
time a bright glow in the direction of
the Chicago Lumber yard induced the
belief that the flames proceeded from
that place. The high wind which pre
vailed caused many people to fear a
general spread of the dc&truclive ele
ment, and large numbers - of citizens
who turned out of their beds were great,
ly relieved to learn that the fire was
caused by a spark from a railroad loco
motive, which Ignited the grass in and
and about Humboldt park, and that the
flames bad been, extinguished after a
vigorous fight on the part of those
who " arrived first on the
grounds. . ' . One of - the - - hose
Carts was run out but reached the scene
of the conflagration too late to be of any
strvice. It is extremely fortunate that
the flames did not reach the lumber
yaid, as it would bare been next to im
possible with tbo gale thnt was blowing
lo bave arrrested the fire had it succeed
ed in "raining any headway.

A I'alnful Aecldeat
Last Thursday aa David Stone, the pop
ular head clerk at Thomas & Jones'
grocery store was engaged in arranging
some goods in the back room, an iron
well pulley fell from the joist where it
was banging and struck Mr. Stone on
the bead, indicting an ngly gaah several
inches in lengtli,aud causing him the
most acute pain. A few minutes after
tho accident be became insensible but
by tbe use of proper restoratives he soon
revived sufficiently to be taken in a car-ri.-iiru
to the residence of , J. F. Drake.
Mr..iouc is one of tbo most .wor
thy joung men in Emporia, and bis
many friends in this city trust that bis
injury may riot develop any serioiu( re
sults. -
Wedding lie I la
Cards issued to the friends of the con-'
trading parties announce the marriage
of Charles Ryder, druggist of this city.
and Cora, only daughter of Mr. E. Bor
ton of Emporia, tho nuptials having
been celebrated at Cincinnati on Wed
nesday cf last week. Tbe happy couple
are expected home on tiianksgivingday,
and upon their arrival will receive the ar
dent congratulations of hosts of friends
in this city. '
Mr. Ryder is one of the solid yonng
business men of Emporia and is in every
way worthy of the charming lady whom
he has been so happy as to secure for a
wife. .:The brido is one - of the most
popular young ladies ia Emporia, bor
personal graces only ' being equaled
by : tnoise ., winning : attributes of
mind , and. -. heart ' which - have won
for her so large a placelo the hearts of
all who know her. The newly wedded
pair begin life together under the. moat
flattering auspices and the wish of this
community is that the future may bring
to them the fullest realization of their
most sanguine dreams of happincae.
' i Heath, of Jeaale Ijifcln.r
Tho many friends of Mr. and Mrs.
A G. Lakin will be deeply pained
to learn of the death of their Utile
daughter Jessie, who departed this life
at an early hour Saturday morning, in the
tenth year of her ase. Some weeks
ago she waa stricken down with that
terrible scourge, diphtheria, and fur
some days her life was despaired of.
She rallied, however, and it was hoped
by bcr fond parents that she was on tho
road to recovery, when it became appar
ent that tho deadly-malady had af
fected the vital organs as to render
her restoration more thau doubtful, and
death came to the relief of t'ao patient
sufferer after she had accomplished her
allotted period of languish! ng and pain.
" The' deceased wa3 idolized by her
parents, and on her centered tbe fondest
hopes of the home of which she was the
light and joy. Brief as was her earthly
sojourn, she had lived long -enough to
entrench herself in tho affections of all
who knew bcr, and tho hearts in which
her image -Is enshrined are' sorrow
stricken by tiio dispensation which robs
them of their treasure.' But while
. Death lies on her like an untimely frost
Upon the sweetest flower of all thu QcM,
ll cannot obliterate the sweet memory
of her pretty, little ways, or quench the
hope that her budding graces will uti
fold under brighter skies thau thoee
which span this world of pain and dtvilh

family residence at the corner of Stale
street and Sixth 'Trrcnue, Sunday

Commonwealth: Some time in Octo
ber, last a clothing firm in New York
city shipped a bill of goods to Messrs,
Illfeld & Co., at Santa Fe, and when the
boxes were received tbe consignees - re
ported a shortage ot $ 150. Tho matte
was traced up.and the goods found to have
been in good condition, and apparently
all right, when they came into the hands
of the A. T. & 3. F. R. R. company. The
loss was thereupon reported to General
Freight Agent Goddard, and a demand
for their value made upon the company,
Tracers -were sent out, and the agents
along the line ordered to try to find the
goods aad apprehend the thief. At last
a man living in Chase county was.sus
picioned and at the request of the agent
at Pcabody, John Counagber,' alias
Frank Davis,- was arrested. He waa
placed in the jail at Cottonwood, which
is a very unsafe affair,, and mauaged to
jump from the second story of the build
ing and make good his escape. He
made bis way to Las Animas, -where hi
was re-arrested and again made a desper
ate attempt to get'frae. When the sher
iff brought his supper ' to him," he
managed to get the sheriff ia the cell
and lock Ibe door. The sheriff fired two
or three shots at Davis, but missed ldai,
and Davis, going into the sheriff's room,
procured a revolver aad went back to
the ja:l and tried to shoot him. Tha re
volver proved to be not loaded,, how
ever, and no harm was done, and before
be could get away tho deputy sheriff ar
rived and . ordering him to throw up
his hands, secured bird. Davis was
heavily ironed, when taken to Cottonr
wood Falls for examination, having on
handcuffs and leg-irons and a steel ring
about his neck, to which was attached , a
chain. - He was taken before tho justice
on Wednesday afternoon, when the case
was continued until December Cth.
The. goods' wero' found, at ..Walton,
where they had been shipped by ex
press, and uooa them a Ur, which. Dus-
tan, who was sent to look after the af
fair, took to Kaaea City, and learned.
after showing it to a traveling man, that
they belonged to the firm who had lost
the goods. 'Dustan went to Cottonwood
night before last and returned with the
goods yesterday afternoon. ' '-'-
The Normal Literary Contest
.The contest of the two literary societies
