A Final Measure Of Trouble.

About September l our Christian
brother and neighbor, B. Gaisford, re-
ceived word that his son, Ulysses, was quite
sick from second attack of mountain
fever, and at once started west to care for
him, and, If practicable, bring him home.
Brother Gaisford, finding his son able
to be moved, returned to Wa-Keeney with
him, where he was met by Sister Gaisford,
and they remained for about two weeks
in Wa-Keeney with their son, under
treatment by DR.. A. B. Jones, of this
place. When the young man had suf-
fciently improved, he was removed to the
home Of his parents, about one mile from
town, where no continued to improve till
he was judged to be out of danger, and
went to remain awhile with his uncle,
Mr.. Theodore Courtney, near blackberry
creek. During the time the parents were
in town caring for their son, the weather
was cold and rainy, and the younger
children at home were attacked with
colds, as also the elder daughter, Miss
Vida, whose health was undoubtedly
undermined by too severe study during
the county normal institute, she having
lost fifteen pounds in weight in the four
weeks of the normal's continuance. Thus
all of the children were weakened, and
rendered susceptible to the influence of a
poisoned atmosphere; and soon after the
son, with the fever still upon him, was
taken home, alarming symptoms mani
tested themselves in other members of
the family, especially in Vida; and, after
serious illness of typhoid pneumonia.
she died, Monday night, October 5, 1885.
and was buried in the Wa-Keeney GEM
etery, very many of our citizens by their
presence and otherwise expressing their
sympathy for the stricken family.
Most of the remaining children at home
are more or less unwell, Master Cecil
quite seriously so.
Truly, it has been summer of heavy
affection for this family; and, they always
having merited and received the respect
and esteem of this community, will, we
trust, now receive, as they deserve, its
hearty and practical sympathy.

LECTURE AT G. A, r, HALL.
Dr.. Hiltz, of New York, viii Expose
the Frauds of Spiritualism.

Tomorrow Sunday evening, DR.. Hilt,
of New York, will lecture at Grand Army
Hall. in Wa-Keeney, under the auspices
of the g. A. r order.
The doctors forte is to prove that
spiritualism is fraud, and to do so in
such an entertaining way as to carry the
audience with him while in the operation.
Colorado and other papers have, within
the past year, contained many articles
which show that he carried his points by
storm amid the severest of tests. We
would like to reproduce some of these
articles. but our space will not admit of
our doing so.
All should turn out.
Admission, 50 cents.

Concerning Candidates.

The name of NJ. H. G. Bryant appears
elsewhere as an independent candidate
for county clerk. Mr.. Bryant is one Of
our oldest and most respected citizens.
In the case of his election, Trego county
would, doubtless, have good clerk. AT
the same time, we are not predicting the
election of our independent friend

We were highly pleased to receive a
call on Monday from Mrs. r. G. Kessler,
of Collyer township. She was accompa-

had been visiting Mr.. Kessler's for about
ten days. On account of the cannon-ball

w. E. Phillips, travelling agent of the
Kansas Mutual Insurance company of
Hiawatha, has been in town again this
week. This time he is accompanied by
w. B. Kingsley, cashier of the company.
Mr.. Phillips assures us that his company
has much larger list of policy holders
in Wa-Keeney, according to the size OF
the town, than it possesses in any other
town of this size in the state. He did not
authorize this inference. but this would
seem to point to Wa. Keeney as being the
healthiest town in Kansas. We should
not be surprised to know that it is..-

Ilabitual constipation is not only
one of the most unpleasant, but at the
same time one of the most injurious
conditions of the human system, and
is but forcrunner OF disease, unless
.emoved. This is usually accom-
plished by the use of purgatives,
which for the time afford relief, but
after their Immediate effects have
passed they leave the system in a
worse state than before. To effect II
cure ii is necessary that the remedy
used should be one that not only by
its cathartic effect relieves the bowels,
but at the same time acts us a tonic,
so as to restore the organs to sound,
healthy condition. This, Prickly
Ash Bittors will do. 1t removes the
cause and restores health.
