slept most of the trip. Frank Painter, of Omaha, was another broken man and sat in deep thought while some of the others joked. When the first batch of cigars were passed Smythe, of Peoria, shouted, "who is sending these cigars around, Hockin?" When a trainman mounted the roof of the car to fill the water tank, Smythe remarked, "somebody is planting some 'soup' on the roof. Orders were given when the train pulled out of Indianapolis to lock all doors and windows and guards were stationed at all exits. This precaution was maintained throughout the trip and the newspaper men were forbidden to send out a line of news until they reached Leavenworth. The plan to feed the prisoners at a long table In the baggage coach was abandoned because of the necessity to unlock the coaches and furnish a possible chance for a break for liberty on the part of the prisoners.

Barry replied faintly, "this is one time that I don't get off at St. Louis." Tears rolled down the cheeks of Brown and McCain, the Kansas City prisoners when they passed near that city.

Way at the end near the staircase a solitary electric is burning. This is all the light you have encountered between it and the corner of Main and Fourth. While the fact that the writer fell down in the vestibule of the storm door is neither important nor interesting, the fact remains. Also that, on the moment, she thought she had broken the means of locomotion. If this column had been so disabled through such a cause, she would have sued the County for ten million dollars. The truth is that it is ridiculous not to have the court .house and its environs properly lighted. Whether anybody is in the courthouse or not, or going in and out, or expecting to effect an entrance or an exit, there should be a light in front. Many people use this as a pathway from the lower portions of the town and a light is badly needed. This should be lighted every night. For anyone could be neatly sandbagged or even cracked fatally in the head in this spot to say nothing of being robbed.

"Who said that?" asked the man at the next desk. "Why Whitman! Even I know that," said the other person. "Then you've read 'Leaves of Grass!'" interrogated the misanthrope. "Sure I have," cried the other person. "What do you think of him anyway?" asked the misanthrope curiously. "Well," said the other person cautiously, "Whitman may have been a poet but he wasn't a gentleman." "However we'll pass that up if they'll put some lights in front of the court-house eh?" said the man at the next desk.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1. A silver loving cup sent from PostmasterGeneral Frank Hitchcock to Postmaster E. M. Morgan of New York, at midnight, marked the advent of the new year. This is the first piece of mail sent through the mails under the provisions of the newparcels post law which became effective today. At the same momentthe service was opened for business in every post office in. the country.
(National News Association) ALBANY, Jan. 1 William J. .Sulzer was inaugurated the forty-second governor of New York State here today with the simplest ceremonies ever seen at the inauguration of a Governor of New York state. All pageantry was eliminated, in accordance with the wishes expressed by Mr. Sulzer. The customary parade,-with crashing of bands and fluttering of plumage was missing, for the incoming executive gave strict orders that there should be no military spectacle. There
i was, however, a toucn ot military in
the picture, when the smart rig of re
tiring Governor John A. Dix, sur
rounded by his galloping staff, drew up before the capitol. Mr. Sulzer was attended also by his military staff. Then too, there was the clank of sabre and the tinkle of spurs as the incoming Governor and the retiring Governor, escorted by their respective staffs, walked from the executive chambers one flight up through the sombre stone corridors and through
;the Mid-way between the senate and
assembly chambers, to the latter place
where the official ceremonies took place. Simplicity was the key-note of the inauguration from the dawn of this morning until Mr. Sulzer had been sworn in as Chief Executive of the state, and ex-Governor Dix and his gaily bedecked retinue had swept out of view around a distant curve, bound for the last time to the executive mansion.
