TO HIS FIRST LOVE.

A few months ago, DR.. l.. \. Z.
Hodge returned to this city from the
Indian Territory, where he had been
practicing medicine for several years.
He said he had determined to aban-
don his frontier life and settle down
to practice here. And though he
soon won Il hattcring practice, when
an offer To return to the Territory,
accompanied by a personal invita-
ton from Agent Miles, was present
ed to him, he could not resist it. He
will return TO his life among the In
dians. DR.. Hodge is a gentleman
whom we could wish might remain
among us, however, as he likes from
tier life the best we hope that all the
pleasures which it can possibly offer
may be his.-Lawrence Journal.
Dr.. Hodge arrived here on the
31st ult., and it is safe to say that no
one ever received a more hearty
welcome. DIR. Hodge is & splendid
physician, and socially is we'll liked
by all. In fact he is the man for
the place, and he is not more pleased
to get back than the people of the
Agency are to receive him

"Burt's" celebrated boots at Con-
nells headquarters.
The brands of James Rennie, of
White Bead Hill, Ind. Ter, appear
in this issue. Let other stockmcn
follow his example, and thus come
to proper understanding among
themselves.
As the gathering season is APP
preaching, we suggest to stOclmcn
that the TRANSPORTER is a good me-
diunl through which to make their
brands known. Our subscribers are
principally those men who could be
of most use to stockmen in return
ing their property. Our price for
inserting brand cut is very low, and
we expect soon to see a number of
stockmen accept of the offer.
The Medicine Lodge Crcsset with
commendable enterprise, is getting
up brand book for the tockmcn
Of Southwestern Kansas, the Indian
Territory and the Panhandle coun-
try. They have had experience in
getting up brand books, and their
work proves that they understand
their business. Brand on cut, not
occupying more than one inch, one
dollar; for each additional inch, fifty
cents. Orders for brands and adj
vertising received at this office.
VIII Hemphill did it with his
rubber type That is, he printed
$111000 and asked those about him
to read it. The proprietor Of the
house said it was one hundred and
eleven thousand dollars; Cleveland
said SO too. Campbell read it one
hundred and eleven dollars. DR..
Harvey was interviewed, and went
into an elaborate argument to prove
that the first reading is right Mr..
Seger said that according to the
'rithmetic he studied, Campbcll's
reading must be correct. The ques-
ton is not vet settled to the salts
faction of all, and until II is. Hem
phil will enjoy the perplexity OF

the number Of cattle owned by the
colonists. According 70 returns on
the subject, not q tenth part Of the
territories Of these countries il now
occupied by farmers and stockmen.
What,is trueof Australia andlNew Zca-
land is also true Of most portions of
South America. In many parts OF the
world cattle are raised for the hides
and tsllow they produce. Such 10 the
ease with which they are kept that
stock raising is very prodtoble even
under these circumstances. Not
many years ago there was great alarm
about the future supply Of wheat. The
introduction Of labor-saving machinery
and improved methods of transporta-
ton made wheat more plenty aud the
price lower than ever before, although
the number of persons to be fed and
the proportion who consumed wheat
very greatly increased. Other
agencies, some Of which have been re.
ferred to, may produce similar changes
in the supply and price Of meat.

THE MISSISSIPPI FLOODS.

The Mississippi foods have been terribly
destructive this year so destructive that
though it may be true that in the long run
they increase the fertility of the bottom
lands, they have probably ruined thousands
of the owners of those lands beyond recov.
cry. Plantations have bee1 swept away.
whole villages have sunk into the water,
hundreds of human lives have been lost
and the destruction OF stock has been very
heavy. SO widespread is the devastation
that nearly seventy thousand people are
officially reported to be in urgent need OF
aid, and with regard TO twenty thousand
of them the aid will have to be continued
for several months. One result OF these
foundations will no doubt be to throw
large areas Of ths richest bottom lands into
the market. The purchasers OF this land
will be handsomely compensated. but the
present owners have been too much injured
In most instances to begin their lives over
again. Thus the floods will tend to bring
about change of population over con-
siderable area, and though eventually the
loss to the country or even to the State
may prove not to have been very great, it
is plain that such considerations have no
consolation Tor the present sufferers.
