A prominent Wichita citizen. who is OPP
posed To asphalt, says: AN important
Afact to take into consideration, and one
Which | have particularly noticed, Is that
Wherever the Barber Asphalt company
paves the streets of u city, 1t is such pow
erful corporation that 1t absolutely con
trolls everything. Does ii not own Omaha?
Hasn't Ii done the same thing in Topeka,
and in Buffalo, y. I.?' The gentleman is
much mistaken in regard to the influence
of the Barber Asphalt company in this
city. Topeka has paved several streets
IL
with the result. On the other hand, we
have used large quantities of stone and
cedar block pavement, and in the next
year several miles of yitrified brick pave
ment Will be laid So ii will be seen that
Topeka is not entirely devoted to asphalt
although il is admittedly a magnificent
pavement.-Topeha journal.
Mr. Valentine Ulrich, president of the
German National bank at Peoria. H.. a
long time friend of Mr.. Valentine Jobst,
Of Peoria the government building con-
tractor. has been in the city a few days on
prospecting tour and attending TO bust
hess matters. 1t was his first visit to the
city and last evening he expressed himself
rs greatly surprised ut the size and bust
hess of Wichita. He was willing To be-
lieve it a good western town, but without
seeing for himself could not admit of its
being city of so much Importance and
magnitude. Concerning the pavement
question Messrs. Ulrich and Jobst are ex-
psrienced in their city and after the ex-
.perience with many kinds they thought
brick was the best; especially would they
emphasize that position if brick could be
made near the city that would serve the
purpose. They leave this morning for
home and Mr.. Jobst expects to return in a
few days to attend to business matters in
Wichita.

n Odsa Times.

Two dollars is, a round price for
wheat-even September wheat-yet
less than q hundred years ago it could
not have been grown for that money.
For then America had not had a bind
er, a reaper, nor a five-fingered cradle,
the reap hook was the harvest imple-
ment. The harvester gathered his left
hand full of wheat and cut through it
with smart blow of the sickle, drop
ping the swath orderly behind him.
After MIN came boy who gathered
the handfuls into bundles. and after a
smaller boy, the band dropper, who
left with each armful band which had
been made by the men too old for severe
labor by knotting together the heads Of
two strands of about a dozen wheat
stalks each. Then came binders and
shockers, and after the grain was cured
it was either stacked or hauled to the
barn to await a convenient season for
threshing. This the best farmers ac-
complished with fails upon a thresh-
ing floor, but the bulk of them trod
out their crops by riding horses round
and round over the heads spread i'll a
ring upon beaten earth. Then it was
winnowed by dropping from heighth
upon windy day, then carefully wash
ed, dried in the sun, picked over by
hand as the house wife picks rice, and
sen. to mill to make flour that was
only eaten upon heigh days and holi-
days. No wonder the old-time darkies
styled it 'Billy-seldom" in opposition
to "Johnny-constant," the everyday
corn bread, or that among people of
primitive race -four bread is to this day
English dough- in contradistinction
to the Indian corn that needs So
much less of National

The report received here some DAYS
ago that Prof" A. Hammond. who
was working with DR.. Mccormick in
putting down the prospecting well
north OF the city, had died suddenly
at Ness City, proves true. The public
will remember the peculiar old man.
and his peculiar ways. The Ness City
Sentinel contains the following account
of his death.
"A. Hammond, the water-witch.
died in this city, very suddenly Friday
night of last week. He had been look
ing at a well at the residence of DR..
Burns on Kansas avenue. About 8
O'Clock in the evening he started I'D
town, and finding himself exhausted.
went into the residence of A. Fl. Clark.
and asked to remain there few
minutes to recover his strength. In
about half hour he attempted to go
but was too weak to walk. Mr.. Clark
produced buggy and took him to
Curtis boarding house on south Penn
syivanla avenue, where he arrived at
10 O'Clock. The old gentleman did not
speak when he WAS called. They
carried him into the house, and sum-
moned a physician who arrived about
1920 to find the patient dead. He did
not speak, not after he left the
residence of Mr.. Clark. The remains
were then brought to Undertaken Bells
On the following day a post norton
was held by the coroner, DR.. Roudiez:
r. B. Linvillt, VIM. Fletcher, Ross
Calhoun. VIM. Martin, W. A. Rauda-
baugh and j. NJ. Morrow were the Jury.
The jury gave in the verdict that death
was caused by Paralysis of the heart,
superinduced by general debility and
wasted physical system The deceas-
ed was 70 years old. The remains were
sent to his relatives in Jacksonville,
Illinois. on the O'Clock train Monday.
Mr.. Hammond was a very peculiar
character. He came to this city from
Great Bend about six weeks ago. He
firmly believed that be could locate a
other of natures valuable deposits, by
means of a forked stick. At all times
he WAS seen with this forked stick on
his person. Several of our citizens had
him Employed to locate veins of water.
He located one according to contract
on the Central house lot, and when
they dug the depth he indicated, found
the water.
''It was evident to close observer
that the Professor, as he was called,
was little weak-minded. the weakness
being brought on by age and poor
health. He was troubled with the
heart disease SO badly that he could
not lie down, and was compelled to &C
cupy a chair. He usually remained in
the hotel Office at night. Events of
this sort happen to every community.
On the frontier they do not happen so
often us they do in older places. Ways
Of nature are still mysterious
