Kleptomania is called a "disease" out of respect for the fashionable women who ply this form of larceny. John Holt Rice, editor of Tho Sela lia Capital, celebrated In Fort Scott last Wednesday bis golden wedding.

Editor Rice ts one of the oldost newspaper men In the state. He wag a lawyer of so prominence In Ceorgla befonr tfce 'war. He lived In Kansas for a lone period and took an active part In politics as a Republican. The Christian county court has a Baptbt preacher for one of Its mem bers. This pious Judge took the license side of the liquor question when the saloon petitions came up for consideration and now the preacher's life Is made heavy by the condemnation which his brethren heap upon the bead of the offending member of the court.

He at tempted to defend his courso through the Ozark paper several months ago, but that only fired the opposition with new zeal. Even at this late date a two column attack on "Brother ClevengT" la not an unusual feature of tho Oark papers.

Capt John W. Bankhead, who died at his borne In Pike county a few days ago, at the age of 81, was a great greut grandsou of Thomas Jefferson, He fet tled on a farm in Tlko county In 1839, nnd had become possessed of considerable wealth, as well as having won recognition as one of the best citizouH. Mr. Bankhead, as an Interesting sketch of his life In The Republic relates, was a pioneer of pioneers. He loved the still woods nnd the solitude of unexplored regions, He was full of that conquering instinct which as made the Anglo Saxon race the colonizing force of the ate He was a mighty hunter and an unerring shot Even In his old age, when too feeble to walk, bis sons would assl.it him to tho woods and leave him beneath some large tree.

Haworth, of the Kansas stato university, declared that the Arkansas river bed was filling up with such rapidity that In many places the river must soon break away and find a new channel. Testimony to the same effect is given by Mr. Dan Jones, who bus lived on the banks of the river in Sedgwlc county for a great many years. "If the sand and trees encroach on the bed of the river during the next five years as they have in the last f.vi years, Mys Mr. Jones, "there will no river bed perceptible.

During the past Ave years millions of small cotton wood and willow trees have sprouted up along tho banks of tho river. They have now grown to the ehlght of seven feet. Ennd has blown among the trees until now what was once the river bed Is good blibstantial river bank. At th present time whero the main channel of tho river was wont to run ia cov ered with cotton wood trees about six feot high. The river bed Is gradually tilling up and It won't be long uutil there Is no bed at nil.

There Is no water In the Arkansas river abov where the Little Arkansas river emtiea into It It Ik absolutely dry for many miles beyond Hutchinson. The water ie all consumed by trie irrigators in the western part of the state. Tho trees and sand which Is now filling In the river does not occur only on one side of the river, but will probably make a 200 feet till in on one man's land on tho wem side, and will then skip for some til tnnce and fill in on the wost side. Should there be an exceptionally heavy snow fall this winter in the mountains, wnen the spring thaw comes the farms in this ectlon of the rountry will be flood ed and the crop along the river bottom farms will be destroyed. Since the death of the late Dr.

Thom W. Evans of Pnrla the newspapers Rt homo nnd nbroad aro full of stories about his remarkable career. The Paris correspondent of the New York; Evening Post tells these: The career of Dr. Thomas W. Evans Is so well known that I will venture to add only a few anecdotes.

The rest Dr. Evans' drive with the empress to the coast, where she was aaoly taken on board Sir Joha Burgoyne's yacht and conveyed to Kngland has often been related by himself. For a second empress he did as equally good a turn, which he has always claimed secured for her the Imperial position. The serious Illness of the crown prince Frederick, Just before the death of the old Kaiser William, mado it probable that.

Queen Victoria's eld est daughter, his wife would remain a dowager princess, and tbat only her son would be emperor. At this time Dr. Evans was on professional duty with the princess. His early knowledge of the silversmith's trade. Joined with his surgery, was sufficient to design the csutila which prolonged the prince's life until his accession to the Imperial throne; The doctor used also to relate that he had treated the Pope's teeth successfully, but he had never been able to induce his Holiness to have them cleaned!
