for the state to assume control of its
capital city. Is it not mistaken in thisP
Up to this writing, tho HERALD has
failed to observe a single notice in any
paper, supporting such a prepostorous
proposition. The good people Of Austin
will be compelled TO support their own
nuniciple government and mako their

never will assume this unjust burden.

THE manufacturer don't divide his
profits with his laborers. He joins a
pool and they manufacture no more
goods than there is demand for within
the profit pesmitted by the tariff. When
they reach this point they shut down
and leave their laborors without en-
ployment until they can again run and
make the big profit permitted by the
tariff. The manufacturers get rich but

Another Robbery Scare.

Last SundaY morning, about o'clock, q
portion Of our people were suddenly
awakened with the announcement that an
other attempt at robbery was being made
and this time the county treasurer's Office
Was the scene of operations. The scare
came about in this way: WOrkmen were
engaged in trimming a coffin in Ulshefer's
shop, and the light they were using reflect
ed into the county building opposite. A
lady In the southeastern part of town saw
this light in the county treasurer's office
and heardtne supposed robbers knocking
with hammer; and this she supposed to
be the work of entering the county vault.
She notified gentleman in the house and
he in turn awOke Marshal Dem and Treas
urer Rouse. These parties then came up
near enough to the county building to see
the light aud hear the knocking, and of
they posted through back streets to get re-
endorsements to capture the treasury rob-
bers. Bob and Charley Taliaferro, George
Horney, Lee Bradley, Alex Mckinney,
Hank O'Brian and several others were
aroused aud with six-shooters and Win
chcsters they boldly advanced to kill or
capture, headed by. the marshal. When a
halt was made in front of the building pre-.
paratory to surrounding it, not a word was
spoken, but Disguised army, seeing for
itself where the light and noise originated
stole away as silently as the Arab of old
who, we are told, even stopped to fold his
tent. tits not safe to question any of the
heroes about this exploit.

Charlie Strong Dead.

Charlie Strong died last saturday morn.
ing at the home OF his father, NJ. Strong
near this city, after lingering illness OF
several weeks duration, and was buried
Sunday afternoon from the Presbyterian
church, after Elder Quick had delivered an
appropriate sermon over the remains. The
pail bearers were schoolmates and intimate
friends OF the deceased, and were Frank
Chaplin, Neff and Al. McCleary, Ed Payne
Scott hubert and Will. Cook. A large
number Of friends went out TO the family
home and accompanied the remains into
town and followed them to the cemetery.
Charlie Strong was universally popular
among old and young, and his death though
not entirely unexpected was deeply regret
ted on every hand.
For two years he was not well. and since
then had several severe attacks. Last; win-
ter he was victim of measles and canght a
cold from which he never recovered, though
he was able to attend school.
His parents. than whom few citizens are
more popular, have the sympathy ola large
circle of friends.

Dedicated TO Deitv.

In the spring Of 1889 few members of
the Presbyterian church who were residents
Of this city and vicinity, assembled together
and decided that it would be well to organ
ize into church congregation and secure
the regular services OF minister. Rev. A.
Axline, then OF Iuka, had been at irregular
intervals holding services here, and he was
employed US the regular minister TO preach
every other Sunday. The old school house
now removed, was used as the place for
services; but soon afterwards arrange
ments were made to meet i'm the NJ. T..
church then completed. This arrangement
was continued until last year, when the
members of the Presbyterian church de-
cided they should have a house of their
own. The energetic ladies of the denomi-
nation had been preparing Tor this, and b.
Il careful system of mite societies, suppers
and festivals, with many hours of toll, and
a strict accounting of finances, they an
nounced that they had about 500 with
which to commence the work of building.
MIR. a. w. Little, liberal citizen, with
warm side for benevolent organizations.
donated lot on which to erect the struct-
ure, and besides gave the pastor, Mr.. Ak
line, an adjoining lot.
The Presbyterian board of New York
learned of the effort being made here, away
out on the frontier, where the track of the
Indian had not yet been obliter,ted, and
this noble organization donated $500 to
the laudable cause.
Work on the building was commenced a
year ago, and completed Last fall, aud it fur
nished this year. The labor and material
was secured at nearly actual cost: the
painting was done free of cost by MIR. JAS.
Boutwell, home organization raised the
money by giving a concert to purchase an
organ, and other donations went to beau
tify and adorn the interior. When the
building was completed it was found that
II had cost S2,440.05, and last Sunday when
Rev. MIR. McClung, of Wellington and Rev.
AxliLe entered into the work of defeating
the church, II was found that there was yet
$500 due. BY using eloquenr and pers,a.
sive words Mr. McClung succeeded in rails
ing this amount from the congregation
that had assembled to see the good work
go on.
An Interesting sermon was then deliver
ed and every one went away happy and
contented.
The church people feel under obligations
to the many liberal citizens of this town
aud county who contributed so literally to
the construction fund.
When IL Is considered that the member
ship OF this church here does not now ex-
cecil % members, il will be admitted that
these few have not been idle; but that they
have done splendid work. They have as
good building as can be found In any
city In Kansas, west OF Wellington; and as
stated all but $500 of its cost was contribu.
ted by Barber county people.
Rev. Axline, though now a resident OF
Pratt county, will continue to preach here
twice each month, and we believe we ex.
press the sentiments Of considerable por-
ton Of this community when we hope to
SET the new Presbyterian church frequently
crowded.
