Air from steam Radiators.

In speaking of artificial heat The
Manufacturer and Builder says that it
is mistake TO suppose that steam heat
is any ''moister" or in any way differ
ent from other kinds. Air warmed by
passing over a steam radiator is in no
way different from that warmed by q
stove or hot air furnace. In fact, the
air is more likely to be impure in q
room heated by a hot air furnace, from
which a current of fresh air is con-
stantly flowing. Rural New Yorker.

LOST MILLION AT FAao-A special
from New Philadelphia, Ohio, says; George
sluthour. born and raised in this place 8
poor boy, started west about fifteen years
ago determined to make his fortune. he
became faro gambler aud in few years
was worth $500,000 Sluthour was anxious
to be worth million before returning to his
old home and one night when the room was
filed with weli-known sporting men, many
of them worth their half million, he deter
mined to try for big strike. Luck again
favored him and by o'clock in the morn
Ing he had broken the bank and won
enough to make his fortune count million,
he was aot satisfied with this, bat kept ON
playing the next night. That very night
he began losing, and before morning every
dollar he had won the night before had
vanished. He was millionaire. however,
for one short day. Even with this loss he
was still possessed of an ample fortune, but
he began playing desperate game, riskiug
thousands at time, but luck was against

THERE has evidently been a deci.

THERE has evidently been decid-
ed change in the opinion entertained
by quite number of Kansas people.
in regard to the effect upon the state
Of the opening of the territory. Those
who opposed it on the ground that it
would take vast number of people
from Kansas, aud would put an end to
immigration at present, have looked
farther and on second thought see less
alarming results as likely to follow.
While it Is true that it will take thous-
ands of people from the state, it is also
true that it will in the end bring many
people to Kansas. Oklahoma as q
a whole. is not as good country as
our own state. 1t has neither the
soil, timber nor water of Kansas; and
many who are going there with the
idea that Oklahoma is the Canaan, the
veritable promised land, will find
themselves previously mistaken.
The contest in congress over this ter
ritory has given IL the most widespread
notoriety, and the restless residents Of
every state in the Union have their
faces set in this direction. The conse-
quence is there will be hundred men
docking to the country where there is
room for one. The land will all be
claimed Immediately and the rebound
will locate more men in Kansas than
the excitement took away. In addi-
ton this mighty influx into a country
which for the first few years can feed
only small part of its population,
will create a convenient and immedi-
ate market for every dollars worth Of
grain and provisions of all kinds that
our state can Produce. Kansas has
nothing to fear from the opening of
Oklahoma.
