Wofford a Character.
Judge Woffard of the Kansas City
criminal court ia a cbaraoter. After
sentencing an aged negro whom he
kaew well and likes to the county jail
tor one year for stealing chickens the
odgs said to the prisoner:
"Dii yoa feel their legs? V
No, sir," replied the old man in
surprise.
"Well, well. You don't know your
business. Serves you right for getting
Into the negro's own field of labor,
Yoa ought to have been caught.
'Now, I never stole any chickens
myself," the judge continued, "but I
lived in the South and I know bow it
should be done. When you go into the
coop, reach op and feel the chickens'
legs. Always do that. If they are
mootb, put them in your sack, but if
they are rongb feathered, leave tbem
alone. Rough legged chickens are not
much good."
The aged prisoner looked interested
and thoughtful. The negroes in the
courtroom smiled approvingly and one
old darky with cotton in bis wool rock
ed backward and forward in bis chair
and the expression on his face seemed
to say: "Judge yoa are all right, and
you know what you are talking about."
Davis H. Walte Drops Dead.
Denver, Col., Nov. 27. Former
Governor Davis II. Waite dropped
dead from apoplexy in Aspen, Col
this morning. He had no symptoms of
disease and his death was totally un
expected. He was 70 years old, a na
tiveof Queetistown,N. Y.,and a lawye
by profession,
Elected by the populist governor of
Colorado in 1895, he served two years
and then was defeated for re-election
While governor he called on the state
militia on two occasions, once to quell
riots of miners in Cripple Creek an
once to remove a board of police com
missioners that refused to retire whe
be appointed a new board. The board
retired and Governor Waite was sus
tained by the supreme court of Colo
rado. whose members were republicans
in the bitter debates of 1893 over th
money question, Governor Waite was
given wide notoriety as "Bloody
Bridles Waite'' a conscienceless news'
paper correspondent sent out a report
that he bad said be proposed
wade in blood to the bridle-bits but he
have bis way, whereas he was really a
mild and gentle old man and was
guilty only ot paraphrasing Patrick
Henry. What he really said was that
rather than the liberties ot the conntry
should perish it were better that men
ride in blood to the bridle bits.
The story conies from Independence,
told by a nurse who had been caught in
the act of purloining daimonds that a
scheme had been laid to kidnap the
baby of Judge Chrisman at whose
borne she was employed. The object
ot the kidnapper was ransom money

Repairing
Neatly
Done
Never thought of such a
sign for a medicine did you ?
Well, it's a good sign for
Scott's Emulsion. The body
has to be repaired like other
things and Scott's Emulsion is
the medicine that does it.
These poor bodies wear out
from worry, from over-work,
from disease. They get thin
and weak. Some of the new
ones are not well made and
all of the old ones are racked
from long usage.
Scott's Emulsion fixes all
kinds. It does the work both
inside and out. It makes soft
bones hard, thin bloot' red,
weak lungs strong, hollow
places full. Only the best ma
terials are used in the patching
and the patches don't show
through the new glow of health.
No one has to wait his turn.
You can do it yourself you
and the bottle.
This picture represents
the Trade Mark of Scott's
Emulsion and is on the
wrapper of every lottle.

Fred C. Berger, who has always
guided the fortunes of the eminent
comedian, re-etigaged the supporting
company after trie tatter s recent
illness and consequent retirement
from the stage for another year, and
with Frederick Summerfleld, a young
actor whose humor is of the quaint,
quiet kind that Is peculiarly Mr.
Russell's own, he proposes to give
the play-goers of those towns and
cities who havo never seen the play a
chance to do so. Moreover, the pro
duction of "A Poor Relation" will be
oa the same elaborate scale in every
detail of stage equipment that has
always characterized Mr. Russell
performance.

Island No. 7.
On Thursday S. L. Bay, special
surveyor over at Richmond, filed for
record the plat of Island No. 7. This
made land contains 1,865.24 acres.
In 1820, the dale of the first govern
raent survey, there was a small Island
located three miles west of Lexing
ton. It was not an island proper
being attached to Lafayette county
by a neck of land. There is a legend
that before the island was formed an
Indian made a trip to the sunrise side
of the river to meet his sweetheart.
A rival was waiting with a tomahawk.
The Indian's canoe, fastened to an
oar shoved in the sand, waiting for
the owner, caught the passing di if t,
and soon a sandbar was started that
grew into Island No. 7. Before the
civil war the laud was cut off from
the main land of Lafayette county,
and became an island proper, although
belug attached to that county ac
cording to the records. During the
past few years the river changed Its
current and as a result the land has
become a part of the main land of
Ray county.
