The Bender family consisted of four persons, all adults—Bender, his wife and daughter, and a son. They are supposed, however, to have had accomplices. The daughter was a Spiritualist and professed to be a healing medium. She advertised herself as such in the neighboring papers, and doubtles quite a number were attracted to the spot by this means who never left it alive.

Persons coming from a distance to visit the daughter kept the matter quiet through fear of ridicule and this explains the fact that, though people have been mysteriously disappearing in their neighborhood for some time, no suspicions were excited until the sudden and altogether unacoountable loss of Dr. York. On the 9th of March Dr. York (brother of Senator York, who gained so wide a notoriety through his connection with the Pomeroy case) left Fort Scott for 1 is home in Independence, Kan. He was mounted on a valuable hoise, and had a large sum of money with him. The time passed for bis arrival home, but he did not come. As his absence grew prolonged, fears wore excited for bis safety. His brother left for Fort Scott to inquire for him, and learned that ho had departed from there at the date abeve stated. Securing assistance, Colonel York proceeded to trace the missing man. lie was followed as far as Cherry vale, a small town on the Leav nworth and Kansas Railway, about two miles from the home of tho Render family. There all traces of him were lost. Inquiries were made of the family, but they stated that no person answering the description had been seen by them. Suspicion had not yet settled upon them, and perhaps would not had it not been for their own conduct. It is supposed that they became alarmed at the urgency with which the search was prosecuted, for they suddenly disappeared. The premises wore shortly after examined, but for some time no discoveries were made. At last :i trap-door was found in a gloomy room, and, lifting this, somo of the party descended into a sort of well beneath, the bottom of which was thick with clotted blood. Horror stricken, tho men prosecuted their search with renewed energy, and at last in a garden in the rear of the house discovered the body of the missing Dr. York. It was divested of clothing and bnried face downward In a grave or hole about two feet deep. An examination showed that tho skull had been fractured by a heavy weapon, presumed now to have been a hammer, two of which were found in the house. A further search revealed more graves, and at last accounts eight oth bodies had been dis-

th^m th of a little girl

who had been murdered with her fath er. Some are of the opinion that the girl was thrown alive into the grave of her father.

Of tho bodies thus far foun nearly all have dlsappeare sine last October. The manner of the mur rs seems to havo been as cool and systematic as that of a hog slau ihtering house. The

as divide! by a coth partition. Against this the travelers were seated at the supper table, in such a manner that their heads woul lean against and indent tho cloth rtition which crossed the room. Some one stationed behind the curtain would then strike them with a hamine.-, and some one in the front room was roa to finish the job. After that they were taken to the trap-door, where they wore thrown in, their throats cut, and they were left until night, when they were carried out and burled. As may naturally be presumed, the most intense excitement prevails in tho Cherryvale locality. Thousands of people have visited the scene,. A detective named Beers is on the trail of the Benders, and the Governor of Kansas has authorised him to go ahead and hunt down the murderers, regardless of exepnse. It is believed they have started for the Pacific coast, with hop® of escaping from the conntry '-4-

THE OA UCU&

The caucus is an institution in American politics. Gordon, in his "History of tho Rise snd Progress of Independence in the United 8tatos," published in 178B, says that mors than fifty years before, oertain ship-builders, Mr. Samuel Adams' father and some twenty others, used to meet, make a caucus, and lay plans for introducing certain persons to places of trust and power. From this origin the caucus has come down to the present time. It may be a necessity, and probably Is. But often it is a nccessary evil. It is the field in which is done more dirty and dangerous political work than any where else. By means of the caucus the tricksters in politics get and hold tbeir power. It Is comparatively easy to pack a caucus and thus give direction to potitical action at the start. Two or three wily men can find tools enough to carry out their plans, and make it appear to be the result of the people's choice, when the fact IB that it is the very reverse. This is one of tho means by which corrupt men keep the control of a political party, the mass of the members of which are honest and well intentioned.

That which makes the caucus a dangerous institution is the fact that it has become a tyrant. To question the correctness of a caucus decision is a political misdem nor, t» 1 efuse to acquiese is a political crime, and such refusal by a member of the caucus is a capital offence to be punished by political death. This is a tyranny against which it is time for th6 members of political parties to revolt. It is the duty of honest men to attend the caucus and get right action. Bu' if they do not go, and the action is wrong, they are under no obligation to approve. A caucus i* merely an advisory meeting, and no man, or body of men, can, or ought to attempt to compel others to accept the advice given. Neither are persons taking part in caucus necessarily under ny moral obligations to accept the decision of the caucus as final. The obligation depends upon circumstances. If it is a personal matter between the candidates, or il the nds of the different candi ates agree to submit the question to a caucus, then the decision is binding. But men who go into caucus do not, or at least ought not go in that way unless they are perfectly sure no wrong will be none. Because A in a caucus votes for who is a good man, that is no reason why he should go to the polls and vote forC, who is a bad man, because the caucus decided to make the candidate. Neither is the fact that was a eandidate before a caucus which nominated a sufficient reason why he should support if he believes him unfit for the position. For example take the recent city election. Much has been said of Mr. Allen's acceptance of the working men's nomination after being a candidate in the Republican convention. If it was a mere personal matter '»twen Allen and Thomas, or th friends of the two, as to which should i" yor, an Allen accepted the nomination of the working men out of spite against his successful rival, then he acted badly. If on the other hand, Allen believed that Thomas was unfit for the position, then he had a perf right to do all in his power to defeat him in the caucuses and nominating convention, and failing here, he had just the same right to follow out afterw rds the policy "any thing to beat Thomas." No caucus or convention has a right to say that a man shall not be a candidate, or that he shall support his successful rival, if he believes that the public interests will be endangered th re y. Yet th is what is dem ed for aucuses, and it has come to require more moral courage than most men possess to refuse to yield to this demand. It may be an irreverent thing to y, ut it is thought by some that even city fathers do not always possess the required amount of back-bone to refuse to obey tho dictates of a caucus. At all events it is true, that honest and honorable men often vote against tbeir consciences and their bett judgment, because a caucus deman it.

Wo are fully aware that we are proclaiming political heresy. But wo are equally well w*re, or at least firmly believe, that we are proclaiming what is right and truo. it caucus asks what tho judgment approves then its requests ae ntitled to respectful consideration. If it demands what is contrary to Judgment, and there Is a better way open, then there is no obligation upon any voter, whether a member of the caucus or not,to obey its commands. The caucus needs to come down from its tyrant's throne,and be content to remain servant.

A FRIEND writes to ask: 'Did you ever see mention made of an 'old and esteemed citizen' except that he died I should like to know of it.' We are inclined to believe our friend will have to worry along a few more years before he heareofsuch an instance, and it is extremely doubtful if he ever gets the full particulars. And most people would rather be a young and rather doubtful member of the community than an 'old and esteemed'corpse.

THE law which makes the sale of beer illegal in ssa husetts has now gone into operation, nd the Boston papers predict that this question is certain to enter largely into the next State campaign. Cider is not prohibited under the new act because, as the opponents of the measure insinuate, it is largely manufactured in th- rural districts and would array their population to a man against the whole temperance movement. In Boston the beer shops will probably try to keep open in spite of the law, and th prohibitionists are for this reason forming an organization to enter complaints and prosecute all offenders.
