The "ten-dollae envelope -swindler" who has vlotl nli il laic u doxen Ouutlia storekeepers nn.l vanned rousldcrablo trouble to the police, wa almost cnigjht last night whin he nttempted tn work his Rtnrn on M. tlrcss, who operates a grocery stnr In tlu Carey hotel build ing nt Howard and Nineteenth streets. The con man entered dross' store at tl o'clock nnd laid down a. liundfitl if uhaiige 011 the counter, asking for a $10 bill, which he said he wiihtcd to send away. Mr. Orors gave lilni the bill and upon counting tho chni;e, discovered that It wit 2"i cents shy. Ho made this fact known and the stranger, who had apparently placrd tho bill In the envelope, returned It to Mr. Oross, and picking up his hinge, raid he would return in a few moments with the right chanse. Mr. dross, however, had heard of the envelope swindler before and Immediately tnro open the paper. Instead of a $10 bill ho found only it $1 bill.

Arguments Heard on Haskell-Hearst Motion Arguments on the demurrer of William Randolph Hearst of New York In the $uoo,000 libel suit brought against him by former Governor C. N. Haskell of Okla homa were heard In federal court yester day afternoon and taken under advise ment by Judgo William H. Monger. The arguments Involved the terms used In the petition In the suit. Juhn C.WJ Rattln, attorney for Hearst, opjecied to having his client charged with slander, naying that statements made by Hearst regarding Haskell were not mude against Haskell as n man, but ns nn officer or official. Tho charges complained of were published In the chain of Hearr.t papers and Mr. Rattln asked that the. publication In each paper bo set out In u separate cause of action ns Mr. Hearst might not be the full owner of the paper In each Instance. ('. J. Smyth spoke for Haskell. The suit was brought In the dlatrlet court of Douglas county In the fall of 1908, but was transferred by Hearst to the federal court. It grew out of a publication In the Hearst papers, during tho political campaign of l!sK, charging Haskell with being the tool of Standard Oil.

"What wonderful thing! are events." exclaims a character In one of Disraeli's novels, "The least arc (of greater Im portance than the most sublime and com prehensive tipeotilutlons " And to some sin h text as this may readily be written tho "human Intetcst" history of ony year, chronicling of "email beer," It may reeni to somn, but lu the dlsrernlng fef better showing the lights nnd shadow of the true tenor of the present tiny world than a summary cf all "first page, top col umn" happening. ' The Initial day f the fOTi began It with word from Trenton that a couple of Max Rusk's germ hud got Into his 'bar, broke a bottle of whl"ky apiece nnd celebrated the coming In of I'll so thornugttly Hint only cold hatha revived Ihetn.' Then, s O st same Initial month was departing that s'lino New Jersey capital reported that J. M. Donald had at lust stopped the disappearance of his bens. Fishing lines and halted hooks had been used when other methods of abstraction h.td failed, but the Installation of it 3,cO candln power aturchllght In the coops worked promptly. Nothing was said of how the biddies Wern to get to sleep. if Task's geese, above referred to, sug gest that the Women's Christian Temper sure union may well ruler upon a new field of labor, so do no less than four other events of lull, the veracious dis patches beating all the way from New York to Scotland, lit April Htittle, the "star" elephant of Central Park, ate ton much and collo ensued, wherefore she was dosed with a little matter of two ounces of laudanum nnd a gallon of whisky. What the laudanum did deponent know eth not. but the whisky was prompt to get In Its work. 1 tattle did all the tricks shed been taught by Rill Snyder, the keeper, and a few more. Hut-the. colic was conuuernl. Visa anal !:. Julius Oruvrson and Charlie Peters went fishing near Tarry town lit Septem ber, and caught some bass drlklng beer. That In, the brer bottles, five ( them, came to the surface with the "take," w hlclt last showed clear evidences of having sampled what had probably been the lost luncheon of previous picnickers. Jcre CJiiinn of Coffeyvllle, Kan., con tributed a pig yarn. Ho arrived In Wash ington with a lot of what looked like breakfnet food, but he sold It was all he had left of a $?,7t) "roll." which he dropped Into bis pm nt feeding time, and a greedy hog pounced on It. The Treasury department wanted proof tie tore issuing new hills, but really the point of the story Is tho obvious good taste of tho Kansas porker. A turtle on Chelsea beach, near Boston, "gave up" mora readily. When caught and hand led, a 1770 penny was found under the ed(te of the shell, which make It nut Just Ml years old or else a delver Into Captain Kldd'a treasure chests, suuk suinrwhere below Massachusetts bay. It was nn American who wrote himself down as the most sclfsaorlflclng man on record. Edward Fay was his name, and Asbury Park the place, and whut he did was to leave his inother-ln-law an se aurlty for a Jfn'i 140a id bill. Apropos of thesd faterlul eml-paretits, let It le chronicled that Magistrate Mngulre of "The Hub" has decided that their visits upon married children must not exceed ten days. wens, Netvl) vteda ana Wnnlil-lles. "His honor," Indeei?, nus figured not. ably as the weeks luivu measured Out their annual path. Circuit Judge Thoinaj, silting at Kansas City In September, de cided Hint "a wife has a perfect right to scold her husband If he doesn't behave himself properly," while Justice Ixta of the Rhode Island supreme court has he.d that any man may slap his wife for going through his pockets on the sly. Y. K. White of Atlanta, arrested on a mistreat ment complaint lodged by his better half, was dismissed by Judge Orr under In structions to klssi the woman at least once a day, and usually to thrown In a fow for good measure. It was love, not conscience which prompted Mrs. Martha Williams of Springfield, Mo., to walk 200 miles to Kansas City, for she had been led to be lieve a husband was there waiting for her, Walter Stewart by name. When she arrived, and when Walter refused to abide by their understanding, she had him arrested and fined. So she was able to "take the cars" for the home Journey. It was a different type of a man who wedded Miss .Gertrude Ellis in Chicago late In September, making her Mrs. Ed ward Mutt. To avoid future domestic Infelicity he filed with the county re corder a giiniunty, signed end sealed, that Gerty might do as she pleased, und that he would be kind unu good, and (lastly) that she was to bo free to gel any divorce that might eventually seem advisable. U, L. Stevens, a wealthy ranch owner nut far from lis Angeles, la yet nnothcr rarely good fellow, for ho let It be known In June that he would marry but only an ugly woman; ugly, that is, to look upon. "The kid a and pretty glrla get hitched up loo easy," wus his way of explaining things, "so I'm proposing to help out sumo gin d soul w ho'll upprcc.ulc the cl-uncu." Whether Turner Lotkhart would havu proved a desirable husband for Mary Good or not will never be known, how ever. They had got fairly slurted on their elopement from Winchester, Vn., when father overtook them, nnd tho promlso of a new hut persuaded Mary to go hack home und leave Turner to look further. A final Item of not dissimilar sort ar rived In March when 11 wus announced that the daughter of Judus Jscsrol was to marly the sou of Pontius Pilule. of course, reference was inuiio lu two of the Oberammergitil actors. A Rival of Kanaua. New Jersey bus become almost ue de pendable as Kansas us a manufacturer of blzarro happenings, so that it Is not hard to find among the year's gatherings of this sort another o,utirlet from the "Mos quito state" which furnished those with which the twelvemonth opened. Ami two have to deal with this same matrimonial matter. Frank Dlleo furnished the one and Nathan Rlskln the other, with Tren ton und FasKSlo the respective towns of Issue. Frank ald be was In love with Mar.e lio.-11.ay ami she so genuinely re ciprocated tils alfeclluus that she had gouu 011 record as being ready to shoot I, tin If he so much as cooled In his atten tions. On the other hand, llosenny senioi had said he'd rhool htm If he came 'round any more. So Frank aaked the police for the answer. Nathan's court ship proaiivl: the only detail deserving in tlco titers wus that he for tradition bv Mitmllntlni: for the conventional s ill fa 're ring a set of to -trv. Mount Holly and I'atersnn furnished the other two telegrams. Jacob (ifeenberiT of the former place was arrested for cruelty tu a horse, lu default of $M and costs hn went to ;all, but hardly had he begun his sentence when Mrs. Greenbeig appi-ured With the rriMls!te Tunds. The news of that upset the prisoner.' reoson and he is now In the State Asylum for the Insane. Fourteen-year-old Louise llolacr of "Tho Silk City" has gone AJax several better. A ball of lightning en tered her home during a June thunder storm, hut as It passed tho girl sho kicked It so viciously as to put It out of business without si much as seriously Injuring even hrr shoe, which was scarcely scorched. This tal Is vouched for by the father, .1. M, Holier, who Is pastor of an Evangelical church. . ' Consider the Weather. , With that eltetrlr storm as preface. something Is, of course, .to be said of tho 1111 weather; whra not? In tho July hot spell tho Items came thick and fast. Some apples, on Frank Ppurln s farm, a bit north of Hroekport, N. Y., for Instance, were nlce.y baked on th stem. Then a Vlneland (N. J.) gentleman. H. R. Hud son by name. h:nl the sun to thank for completing the hatching out of a baker's doscu of chicken eggs which the mother had deserted on nrcount of the humidity. Thirdly fthls from Columbus, lnd ), the eggs laid In tho nests owned by II. L. Host were all unite purplish presumably from the heat, not the gentleman's name, for this never happened before! and, flna'.ly. the lilgli-cUmbltig mercury In Chi cago operated to set oft the automatic flro extinguishers In a big department store. For long inlnules the flood gates them selves seemed open till the half-drenched employes could get at the stop cocks. Put. after all. Utile Zuncsvllle made these look alq and Insipid. Tho follow ing came from the mother of presidents under date of July $: "When standing on the Y bridge, prob ably llio hottest place In the county, Guy Stevens wus ntrurk by glass from a ther mometer which exploded from the heat. Guy wus commenting on the fact that the tube registered 1J0 Uearces when It Just went off. like It wan mad at him for talk ing so." The reverse of all this, In that trag edy, not comedy, now holds the stage, came In a trio of news briefs from San Francisco, Owenshoru, Ky and New York City. In the one ca. a mint em ploye, who, not half an hour before, bud been to his superior lo see about 11 loan to help him out of a financial diffi culty, was hurled beneath some bags of gold coin and mo bndly Injured that he tiled In the hospital. In thu second In stance a colored convict, phtylng poker with some fellow prisoners, drew three cards to a pair of nces; "ranch!" the other two; won pennies, matches, tobacco and about everything else his opponents could stake but lost his mind In tho ex citement. Too Mach of n (4l ThtnaT. The lust Item Is no less pathetic merely because It tells of a horse's death, not a man's. For It was such a wor-begone, starved, shrunken old unlmnl when Roundsman Lcderer of tha Mornlngslde district came upon It, trying to find' something to nibble in the January god. At the station house It ailrred each pity tht It was sent around to a nearby liv ery stahle forthwith for a proper moal and a few days' rest and comfort. Rut hardly hud the hostler dumped the gen erous oats Into his bin when the new comer fell dead. , Who shall say but that tha bur sight of food nnd the unknown touch of a kindly hand bad ended its earthly roreer. Man's other friend, tried and true, the dog, has something to say for himself, naturally, tine of him. down In Terrell, Texas, arriving In the world with two tails, waa at once aasessed double measure by a resourceful tux collector. A Utile later he may himself pay off ths debt he thus unwittingly placed on tho shoulders of Ills perplexed master, e'vtm as a dog did In Tarrytown. W. A. Towner owns this canine, and one morp Ing in the fall he showed It a new collar and chain he had bought him. After some proper yelpings and wagglngs to , show his pleasure, the pet ran Into tl;e yard, dug furiously under a tree stump, and brought to light two silver dollars; Just the price of Towner'g recent pur chases. And speaking of divorce actions, be It set down In these annuls yhat E. L. Pln dexter, formerly of Tulsa, okl.. hun asked tha courts to release him from a helpmate who keeps revolvers handy u make him wash dishes. Ho eventually got hold of all the guns and hid Ihein, but the emancipation of father wus nut yet; she grubbed a carving knife, and In a matter of aeconds E. L. 1. was toying with bread dough and watching tho fry Ins; bacon that It didn't burn. If this seems a "record" of its sort, there are others. Dynamite has been uaed at Kearney, N. J., for the extermi nation of mosquitoes after which break flies on wheels will read prosaically. A swarm of Jersey bees have crossed the river to see the sight of New York milk ing a call on Mrs. Ogden Goelct amomr other things, and driving away some mis guided work-men who thought to oust them from the Fifth avenue premises. And out In Ohio a mere man has won Ihe fumy-work prlxo ut a county fair! It's tho little straws such as these which show where the winds of modern llfo are blowing, warm or cold, bring ing Minshlne or cloudy days. As tho world looks at such things they ure. at first sight at least of scant account, b"t, none tho leas, aro they tho truast bar ometers of the great heart of mankind. Think naught u trifle, though it small appears; Smull sands the mountains, moments make the sear. And trifles life. New Orleans Times-Democrat. Muscatine Grand Jury Ends Work M I 'Sl'ATi NE, Ja..
