CEREDO, WAYNE CO, w. VA, FRIDAY AUGUST 3 1885,



There's quaint old legend in an.
cient lore
That has never been written or told
before,
And IL tells how Adam. quite early
in life,
Contracted with Jove to create him
wife;
The only condition there was to
the trade,
She must be the sweetest thing love
had vet made.
The goods were delivered, all fin.
ished complete,
And the first wife of Adam was
perfectly sweet.
Now, some Of the comfort and much
ofthc bliss
or a young married man seems to
come with kiss,
And each time he kissed her on
Adams lips stayed
Just bit of the sweet from which
she was made;
Now, il seems Mr.. Adam had quite
aswcet tooth,
He constantly kissed his first wife,
till, forsooth,
There just came TO pass what might
have been feared
He kissed his new wife till she all
disappeared.
/ just want to throw in n thought
by the way,
Adams course proved il true-'tis
true, too, to day
When a man gets n sweet wife and
she goes away,
He goes for another" with little
delay.
Soon Adam got homesick and lone
some nud-well.
He couldn't get boarded at any
hotel;
His buttons were Of, and his bed
wasn't made,
So he hunted up Jovc and proposed
anew trade:
He said, as he gave his directions
with ease,
Put little more vinegar in If you
please,
When Adam was taking his after
noon sleep
Jovc made him wife he could both
kiss and keep.
Old Grandfather Moses, it seems,
was afraid
To mention word about Adams
trade.
But he just tries his best to make us
believe
That the very first woman created
was Eve.
Sometimes even now in sample
lot
There comes a wife such as Adam
got
When he traded first; but they new.
or stay;
They either turn sour or go away,
And the sweetest and tenderest
wives that we miss
Have but gone up above for the
saints to kiss.
MORAL:
Ana now, young man, the moral to
this is:
II you're even dreaming Of welded
blisses
Don't finish the trade whoever the
miss is
Till you sample the goods in the
way oi kisses.
i s. Wheeler, an Gin. Enquirer.

A Campaign Lie.

Campaign editorial in an East

Captain George Hicks, our most
prominent candidate for sheriff,
maliciously ASSERT that he is Q Pro.

most uncalled for SANDER Of the
campaign. We have known the
the Captain for several years, and
have positive proof that he is not a
Prohibitionist, and in proof Of this
assertion which we do not make
without mature deliberation-we
submit the following facts: On the
night Of May 10th, the Captain got
so drunk over at Frazier's Point that
he had to be taken home in a wag.

OF some Of our most prominent citi.
zens, he was seen to drink a cock.
tail. -Four days later he got drunk
at Miller's Landing and fell into the
river. This cannot be successfully
disputed, for the feat was witnessed
by the county Judge and a number
Of our most prominent citizens

liberal drinker, and we dare any

FOR THE PENITENTIARY.
A Horse Thief and A Perjursr to go Over
the Road.

Monday Judge Ellis sentenced the
horse thief, David Cole, to two years
Imprisonment in the Kansas peniten-
tiary. He plead guilty to the charge
and did not have any attorney. Cole is
the fellow who was captured near FL
dred about six weeks ago when he was
coming out of stable with a horse
he had stolen. He refused TO give the
names of any of his friends OF relations
and no one appeared to know where he
hailed from.
DIR. Geo. w. Aver was sentenced, on
Monday, to one years Imprisonment
in the penitentIary he having been con-
victed of perjury on the 9th inst. His
offense was in making an affidavit af-
fecting the claim OF b. F. Teal, south
east of here five miles, which parties
were attempting to contest. DIR. Aver
Is an old man-nearly 70-and had he
been content to attend to his own bust
ness he would to-day be a free man.
lie has been the source of great trouble
to many settlers in this county and
though he was frequently warned that
his course would get him into trouble.
he disregarded all advice and now he
has brought disgrace on his family.
His wife, sons and daughters are good
people and it is with them that this
community sympathizes.
Sheriff Stevens started yesterday
afternoon to the penitentiary with Cole
and Aver.

A SUNDAY BLAZE /!
II Burned Two Barns and scorched Several
Houses.

Last Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock
blaze was discovered issuing from the
brick stable of Dial. Morris on his prem
ises on North Walnut street and before
assistance could arrive it was entirely
DESTROYED, as was a new barn contain
ing fine, new buggy and harness and
lot of feed, on the adjoining lot, the
property of Scott hubert. a hundred
men with buckets of water at once en-
tered into the work of saving the houses
of Mr.. Rubert, a. S. McClearey and +.
l.. Lindley, directly west of the burn
ing barns, and it was only by the hard
est work that these handsome cottages
were not licked up 10y the flames. As
it was they were considerably scorched.
Mrs. y. s. McClearey was very sick in
bed at the time and it became necessary
TO remove her and her week-old infant
to the house of L. A. McNeal. near by.
Fortunately she suffered no great in-
convenience from her terrible expert
ence.
The fire was caused by Mr.. Morris
children playing in the barn with
matches, his fiye-year-old boy admitting
that he built up small fire of shavings
or excelsior that were around the place.
Mr.. Morris was away from home, as
were all the men on that street. it APP
peared. when the fire was discovered.
The loss to Dial Morris is perhaps $500
and to Scott hubert nearly as much.

BARBER COUNTY COTTON.
1t is to be Exhibited at the Cincinnati Expo
ntion.

Barber county cotton will be on exhi-
bitioD at the Cincinnati exposition, the
city council having last Saturday ap-
propriated S25 to pay for collecting aud
sending lot there. The exhibit will
go through the Wichita Board of Trade,
that body having offered to forward it
to Cincinnati. We cannot imagine an
exhibit that wauld do the county more
good, for while every county in Kansas
can show good corn. wheat, oats, ETC..
there are few counties that can show
better cotton than Barber. Last year,
though by no means FAVORABLE to cot
ton IN this locality, Barber county rails
ed and ginned considerable acreage
and 1t brought the very top price IN the
st. Louis market. We have a gin at
Medicine Lodge and its owners are
hopeful of having plenty of work for
it this year.

Jim. johnson Repeats His Medicine Lodge
performance!

Arkansas City Traveller: Last fall
or winter there came to this city James
/. Johnson with an Uncle Toms Cabin
troupe. lie gave snide entertainment
and managed TO get enough money
here TO get to several other towns.
Finally his combination busted but
majority of them managed to return
TO this city. johnson got here with
two daughters, two goats, three dogs
and S2.75, but he was equal TO the oc
caSi0n. He is man of wonderful re-
sources, especially if the resources be-
long TO some one else and he can draw
on them. He and the remnant of
his company gave an entertainment or
two and then the remnants left him
and went to work for a living. John
son boarded with his daughters at vari-
Gus places in the city and managed
along until early spring when he under
took the organization of his annual cir
Gus and amphitheater. He got every
thing on time and promised to pay and
opened up the best show he has been
connected with for twenty-five years.
He ran along for month or so, made
some money and paid partially some of
his debts. He then conceived the idea
OF removing TO Wichita. as his patron
age here was ON the decrease. He Sc
cured the consent of his creditors here
to the removal and they sent a man
along with the outfit to look after their
interests. He was TO allow Johnson SO
much of the receipts daily to pay eX-
penses and all over that amount was to
be retained for.the creditors. After a
couple of weeks trial the creditors saw
they were not being paid off very rapid
Iy. The business lost money daily. so
they concluded, in order to make them
selves secure. to run an attachment on
the entire outfit. 1t was done and the
trial was had and johnson confessed
judgement and the court ordered the
circus to be sold on last Saturday. On
that day George Miller. representing
the creditors, went to Wichita to at
tend to the matter. Arriving there he
discovered that NJ. a Tompson, of this
city, had managed to get a 81 500 mort
gage on the outfit before the goods were
attached, and he sold his mortgage to
John G. Wood, who had replevied the
circus. In this way the creditors were
left again to hold the bag. Johnson
wanted to give his Arkansas City cred
itors the first mortgage, but Thompson
would not hear of it. Johnson claimed
that Thompson had not put in 81 500 i'm
the business: in fact, had put in but
very little money. He further states
that Thompson had promised to put in
certain wagons and horses from the
livery stock which he had in his possess
sion here at the time the circus was
here. He had uone so, and Johnson
had given the mortgage for 81 800 to
him. But before Johnson got away
the horses were claimed by mortgage.
and in this instance Johnson held the
sack. The case has now gone to the
circuit court aud has resolved itself
down to questisn of title, but looks
very much as If the Arkansas City folks
would get nothing. Johnson's debts
amount to about $1,000 here, and it is
quite probable they will never grow
any less"

Yestibule Train, to Chicago.

The vestibule trains is a new factor in
western railroad transportation. 1t is
claimed for these trains that on account
of their being connected by steel hoods
all danger of telescoping in case of acct
dent is removed, the train being prac-
tically one long car. 1t is certain that
the oscillation of the cars is greatly red
uced, and it is also certain that the YES
Thule trains afford the greatest comfort
yet known to travellers. The adoption of
this style of train by the Chicago, Santa
Fe Il California Railway between Kan
sas City and Chicago is a strong bid for
the passenger traffic between the West
and Chicago. This new road is in many
particulars ahead of any of its older
competitors, and will undoubtedly be
the popular road to Chicago. so

SCHOOL HOUSE BIDS i!
They Were Opened Last Friday, But No One
Yet Accepted.

The school board last Friday received
and opened bids for the construction of
the new school house. Each bid was
required TO be accompanied by a certi-
fed check for $500 as an evidence of
good faith. Following were the bids:
w. ii. Sternberg, of Wichita sic, 1919,
he agreeing to pay S525 for the mater
ial in the Old building; ]. O. Nixon,
Wichita SIT, $50; $500 for the old build
ing; Winter x Brown, Medicine Lodge,
$4,000; $3.50 for the old building.
A bid was also put in by ). III. Stew
art of Wichita, he agreeing to erect the
building for Sl5, 1924 and allow 500 for
the old building; but his bid was not
accompanied by the $500 check and so
it will not be considered,
The board have the bids under con-
sideration; but will not likely accept
any one until lis known positively that
the school house bonds can be sold at
par 1t was the understanding that the
state school fund commissioners would
take the bonds; but at the last moment
they declined, giving as reason that
they now held a considerable Amount
of Barber county school district bonds
and it %Sss their policy to distribute the
funds over the state. Treasurer Nc
Neal, Of the school board went "a
Topeka lastw 10 see II ne could not
induce the commissioners to take
the 100000 voted here, and he thinks
that they will.
IL the bonds are not accepted by the
permanent school fund commissioners
it is possible that the new building will
not go up this year. 1t would be bad
linaneiering to sell the bonds for less
than par, and we DO not believe that
the tax payers favor such a course
esp sciailv at this time when there is 50
much doubt as to what the outcome in
crops will he.
