s. P. Remington died at the Mel

held at the Salemsborg church last
Sunday. Mr.. Hemningson was

and was very much respected by a
large circle of acquaintance.
Mr.. Carr, an employe in the Ellis
worth Reporter Office, made apleas-
ant call at THE JOURNAL office last
Saturday morning. He represents the
Reporter in furnishing condition,
and that the city of Ellsworth is par

Ralph Peck shot a grey eagle last
week down the Smoky Hill. The
bird measured seven feet ten inches
from tip to tip of wings, and three
feet from beak to end of tail. 1t
weighed eleven pounds. Heis prepar-
ing to have it stuffed.
1t was reported upon the streets q
few days ago that the Linden House
had changed hands; that Mr.. J. c.
McQuary had bought out Messrs.
Maxey & Emerson. This proved to
be untrue. 1t is stated that no such
change of proprietorship has ever been
contemplated.
Mr.. G. H. Martin has plan which
would seem to be feasible one, and
that is to stock the lakes near McPher
son with fish of all kinds. He believes,
and so do others, that considerable
money might be realized from it.
Kansas surely wants fish of all varie-
ties, and the way to get them is to
stock the streams
We see by the Eastern Kansas pa
pers that set of peddlers are at work
among farmers selling goods
Ia them, to the amount of 1925 TAX
ing their notes for the amount and sell
ing these notes for about So. The far
mers are sold in both the quality of
the goods bought and the prices paid
therefor. They should learn lesson
from this experience and bug their
goods of responsible home mer-
chants.
The appraisement of the effects and
property of Jno. Gels Il Co. has been
completed by Messrs. Scholl and Go
ing. We understand that the appraise-
ment places the valuation of the effects
and property at about Sl0S,OOO, while
the liabilities are less than $50, 900.
Mr.. Faulkner, the assignee, is now en-
gagged in getting up his bond, rs re-
quired by law, the amount of which
will he double the above valuation.
