THE KANSAS JAYHAWKERS.
The Cray County Court House was
Held In Check by the Militia-
Commissioner Shoup Tells the
Cimarron Side of the Story
Inicalls Not Heard From
Topeka, Kan., Jan 14. The county
seat war at Cemarron has been temporari
ly quelled by th prompt appearance of
the state troops. The feelings of both
factions is rising and there is little pros
pect of peace being permanently restored
until more blood has been spilled.
The imprisoned deputies and clerks
had been released by the sheriff before
the troops arrired. The maddened Cim
arron sympathizers threatened to go to
IngaUs and burn the town and kill the
people, but the farmers taking the part
of the elected officers, arose in a body
and during the night guarded the town
and prevented damage if any was at
tempted. The military companies
ordered out are still in readinsa to move
at a moment's notice. It is stated today
that the friends of the two opposing
towns have offered to hire men to fight
in the interests of their respective places.
One of the injured deputies, A. E.
Ilrooks, is reported to be in a precarious
condition.
CHAIRMAN SIIOUP'S STORY.
J. Q. Shoup, chairman of the board of
county commissioners of Gray county,
came in this afternoon from the scene of
the frightful county seat war to lay the
matter before Gov. Martin. Immediately
upon his arrival he had tt long conference
with the governor, who had been in tele
graphic communication all day with the
officials at Cimarron. Shoup gave a
thrilling account of his experience with
the attacking party. He was in his office
in the court house when the leader of the
mob from the rival town of Ingalls
opened the door of his office, covered
him with a Winchester and commanding
him not to move. All the county officers
were held up in the same way, while the
remainder of the mob took possession of
the county records and fled from the
town with them. The Cimaron people
pursued hotly.
THE KILLEl 'WERE OUTSIDERS.
English and Bliss, who were killed
were not participating in the tight and
Shoup claims their murder was in cold
blood. He demands that the murderer
be brought to speedy justice. lie says
the attacking party was headed by Wat
son, the newly elected county clerk and
was made up of t)o(ofiqu3 'roughs and
cowboy3, who were brought for the pur
pose of terrorizing the Cimarron people,
while the county records were being
seized, Oue of the leaders of the party
was the notorious "killer" Jim Johnston,
who, it is said, has openly boasted thai
he has taken the lives of twelve men and
that no one dared touch him, Qoy.
Martin eaiu today that he would put a
stop to the fight ' if it required the entire
militia of the sate. He proposes fo baye
a thorough jpYetigatjQi; &nd says the
guilty one will be punished.
THE TROOPS ARRIVE.
Gen. Meyers with the second regiment
reached Cimarron early this morning and
found the whole town in arms, aad ex
pecting another attack. Ko strangers
wep allowed to enter the town without
proving satisfactorily that they were not
friends of the rival town. No services
were held yesterday in the church, but
instead the church was converted into an
arsenal where the weapons of war were
deposited, and Gen. Meyers ordered the
pwGple to disarm themselves at once, and
told them that nnless they did so their
weapons would be taken from them by
force. To all appearances the order was
complied with.

At first a little, hacking cough,
" Tis nothing but a cold,"
They say, " Twill very soon wear eff."

The Way to Waefc'Wladews,
There U a right and wrong way to
wash windows, and as this operation is
usually dreaded, the following method
will doubtless be appreciated, as it saves
both time and labor Choose a dull day,
or at least a time when the sun is not
shininar on the window, for when the
sun sniues on uie wuiuuw ii unu m is l
dry streaked, no matter how much it is
rubbed. Take a painter'sibrush and dust
them inside ana out, washing all the
wood work inside before touching the
glass. The latter must be washed sitn
ply in warm water diluted with ammo
nia do not use soap. Use a small cloth
with a pointed sticK to get the dust out
of the corners; wipe dry with a soft
piece of cotton cloth do not use linen,
as it makes the glass linty when dry.
Polish with tissue paper or old news
paper. You will find this can be done
in half the time taken where soap is
used, and the result will be brighter

Barbara la Olden Time.
It is seldom in these days that you hear
of a person being leeched or cupped. It
is rapidly becoming a lost art. Not a
great many years back it was a very im
portant business in connection with a
tonsorial establishment. In fact it w oi
almost a profession pf its own. Cupping
and leeching were very popular' among
the' Germans, ' and,' 1 whether weak or
strong, : they ' followed! ' the' use." Not &
great many years ago an apprentice' bar
ber invariably had become "is profit
cient in the application of the leech as he
did ' In ' Che 'shaving lino. Barbers also
did a good deal of tooth jerking, but that
part of the business is also no more,
since dentists are so numerous. St.

REMEMBER.
Swift the flocking clouds are flying;
As the night shades sullen grow.
And the day leans faintly dying
In the western sunset glow.
It is desolate Decern ber !
Spring was prophet of completeness,
Full of promise and of light
Kin of summer days, whose sweetness
Thrilled within the winter's nigbL
(We were glad then you remember.)
Summer blooms were shy and fragrant.
As you gathered them, you know.
Yet the briars were bold and vagrant
When the mowers came to mow;
(AVe were sad then you remember.)
When the mowers scythes went swinging
All the dowers were hushed to death!
Now no hirda are Joyous singing.
And the winter witbereth
In the desolate Decern ber.
With steadfast light and night so blended
The haunted winter day is paused;
The blithesome blossom time has ended.
The summer caunot always lust.
Nor the desolate lecember:
Remember this, dear, all remember!

A Wonderlul Ltiuuioud.
A remarkable precious stone Las been
discovered recently. It was a diamond
of fine white color, weighing about
four carats and handsomely cut, which
had cracked into two equal parts, re
vealing in its center another diamond.
The interior stono was a pentahedron,
with facets upon it as regular and per
fect as if they bad been cut by a skill
ful lapidary. So perfectly did this
little diamond tit into its matrix that
it was invisible when the threo parts
of the combination were put together.
The impossibility of putting two
diamonds together in eucu a way by
art is beyond question. It was the
work of nature, but what natural law,
or perversion of law, had such an
amazing effect was far beyond even
the theorizing of thoso who inspected
the stone. Brooklyn Eagle.

X Remarkable Volcano.
The city of San Salvador, the capital
of the smallest and most populous Cen
tral American republic, was founded in
1528. It has been three times almost en
tirely and eleven times partially de
stroyed by earthquakes and volcanic
eruptions. It is eighteen miles from the
sea coast, has an elevation of 2,800 feet,
and is surrounded by a group of volca
noes, two of which are active, San Miguel
and Izalco, and present a magnificent
display to the passengers of steamers
sailing along the coast, constantly dis
charging masses of lava which flow
down their sides in blazing torrents.
Izalco is as regular as a clock, the
eruption occurring like the beating of a
mighty pulse, every seven minutes. It
Is Impossible to conceive of a grander
spectacle than this monster, rising 7,000
feet almost directly from the sea, an im
mense volume of smoke, like a plume,
continually pouring out of its summit
and broken with such regularity by
masses of name rising 1,000 feet, that it
has been named 1 Faro del Salvador
the Lighthouse of Salvador. It is in
many respects the most remarkable vol
cano in the world, because its discharges
have continued so long and with such
regularity, and because the tumult in
the earth's bowels is always to be heard.
Its explosions are constant, and are aud
ible a nundred miles off. It is the only
volcano that has originated on this con
tinent since the discovery by Columbus.
It arose from the plain in the spring of
1770 in the midst of what had been for
nearly a hundred years a magnificent
coffee and indigo plantation. Guate

Quarts Dirt Consumption.
A local physician says the prevalence
here of coughs, hoarseness and phlegm
expectoration is not produced from tak
Lag cold, but from inhaling fine par
ticles of quartz dust, with which the air
has been filled for several months. These
particles are carried into the lungs and
throat and cause irritation, and the fre
quent coughing is the Ineffectual effort
of nature to rid the system of the f oreigr
particles. The physician further state t
that constant inhaling of this fine quartz
dust will produce symptoms almost idea
tical with and more speedily fatal than
hereditary consumption. He cited the
well known fact that the fatality among
miners employed in the Crown Point anp
Belcher is due to the upper' levels of
these mines being constantly filled with
quartz dust, which has played havoo
with the young men employed there dur
ing the past five years. The doctor re
ferred to christened the disease "quartz
dust consumption," and says the only
remedy for It is to emigrate to moister
climates like Oregon or Washington ter
ritory or locate "on sanda that are' salt
from the kiss of the sea. - The' prevent
ive is to keep the streets thoroughly wet
down and to cease ballasting them witj
quartz. Virginia (Nev.Jj Chronicle,
