The engineer stuck to his engtni and whistled for the brakes or what wouli have become of us will always bo u mystery , The Omaha boys attracted special attcntioi for their work were ; A. D.

Wintersteln , n St. Louis drummei registered at the Oak Leaf hotel in Littl Kock a f uw days ago , says the Democrat , an being very tired asked at once to bo shown t his apartments. The dark assigned him front room on the second floor , and did nc sco him any moro till nearly 4 o'clock thl morning , when ho was found crushed and ii sensible on the rock pavement below , whet ho had fallen from u second story windov Tired nnd worn out ho had fallen asleep in few moments after ho retired , but h slumbers were disturbed by fretful dreams. Ho was In the heart of a great city whei everything was bustle and confusion. Ever ; where ho went a great , stalwart man with tli face of a vicious doy , and oycs that shon with the 11 ro of a fiend , followed in his fee steps and crept in his shadow with diabolic ; stealth. The drummer dodged nnd used ovot possible strategy to get away from his ui welcome companion , but to no avail. Evot where ho went these murderous eyes Mroi leering upon him with n look of hellish hat' ' At last ho came to the bank of a great rivei wncro was anchored a vessel which was a most ready to sail. Pausing a moment i said ! "I'll go on board and leave this groc city of shadows behind , " and with that ri solve ho stepped not on the gangway of boat , but through his window to the stoi floor of the court below. How long he U there no ono will ever know. When ho regained partial consciousnes his head was lying in a great pool of bloo and ho felt that to move was almost doat but ho managed to ralso hiinsolf on his ham and knees , and in this manner crawled a fe yards towards the main door. He was dl covered by the night clerk , who immediate summoned n doctor. A physician examiui him , and found that his jaw was broken two places , and ho had received other sorio internal iujuries from the fall. Ho has bc < carefully attended to and will recover , b it was ono chance out of a hundred. Ho ia young manof good appearance and had n been dissipating , as the clerk will attest. They Will Not Pay License. Kansas traveling men now have an an ll < wnnA iWlslou from their own courts , sa nn exchange. On December 04 last a bo agent , named H. H. Pelton , was canvass ! in Fort Scott for u work sold only by si scrlptlon. There is a city ordinance requ Ing "drummers" to pay a license too , whi for book nnd map agents is (1 a day or $ & year. Pelton did not procure a license , a a complaint was iilod against him in t police court. Ho was arrested , found null nnd lined. Ho appealed to the district cod and wus again defeated and assessed $ ' 5 a costs , when ho finally carried his case to t supreme court. Tim main question involv was , whether a city "may bo empowered the laws of its own stata to impose a llcon tax upon a commercial 'drummer,1 or oil persons of another state , for merely offerl to sell goods by sample. " The court hoi that this question has Dcon settled by t supreme couit of the United States in fay of the "drummor , " nnd reverses the doolsi of the court below. Ho WnTT Flirt.
