NEW YORK, March 18.-Letters of SYM
pathy with the projected National Confed-
crate Soldiers Home at Austin, Tex, con-
tinue to pour into the Secretary, Oliver
Downing. Among the letters just received
is one from ex-President Rutherford B.
Hayes from Fremont, o. It is given in
full below. There are also letters from
Major General George Crook, of the Di-
vision of the Missouri; and from W. Mer-
ritt, of the Department of the Missouri.
General Crook speaks of the movement as
ga charity which sectionalism can we'll az
ford to overlook and the North can in this
way show kindness and sympathy to fallen
foe." Ex-President Hayes writes as fol-
lows:
FREMONT, O., March Is, 1889.
MY DEAR SIR-I thank you for the privilege
of uniting with the New York Citizens Com
mittee in their patriotic and charitable work
in behalf of the disabled and destitute soldiers
of the late COnfederacy. The time is plainly
drawing near (if it has not already come),
when justice to its defenders will require the
National Government to expend much larger
sums than have heretofore been appropriated
for the support of the men who saved it. The
sacred obligation to the Union soldiers must
NOT, Will not De IOrgotten nor neglected, eSpe-
cially by those who have shared in the fullest
measure the prosperity which has come from
the services and sacrifices of those who stood
by the Government when it was imperilled.
But those who fought against the nation
cannot and do not look to it for relief. Their
disabled and destitute comrades are left to the
generosity and benefactions of their more
fortunate fellow citizens who wisely forecast
the inspiring future of our country. Confed-
crate soldiers and their descendants are to
share with us and our descendants the destiny
of America. Whatever, therefore, we, their
fellow citizens, can do to remove burdens from
their shoulders and to brighten their lives is
surely in the pathway of both humanity and
patriotism. With my contribution to the enter
for its success 1 remain, sincerely,
RUTHERFORD B. HAYES.

Drinking a Farm.

My homeless friend with the chro-
matte nose, while you are stirring up
the sugar in that ten cent glass OF gin,
let me give you fact to wash down
with it. You say you have longed for
years for the free, independent life of
a farmer, but have never been able to
get enough money together to buy a
farm. But this is where you are mis-
taken. For several years you have
been drinking good improved farm at
the rate if 100 square feet at a gulp.
If you doubt this statement figure it
out yourself. An acre of land contains
43 $50 square feet; estimating, for con-
venience in figuring, the land at S43.56
per acre, you will see that it brings the
land at just one mill per square foot
one cent for ten square feet. Now just
pour down the fiery dose and imagine
you are swallowing strawberry patch.
Call in five of your friends and have
them help you gi1lp down 5OO-foot
garden. Get ON a prolonged spree some
day, and see how long a time is re-
quired to swallow a pasture large
enough to feed cow. Put down that
glass of gin; there's dirt in it-lOO
square feet of good, rich dirt. worth
S43. So per acre.-EE.

The new (?) dance, known in society
parlance as the Newport short range

ing quite furore in the dancing cir
cles in this city. 1t is dancing by two,
usually of the opposite sex, but occa-
sionally. on pinch, we have noticed
two of the same sex ''going in alone.''
The dance generally starts in after the
style of an orthodox waltz, but if you
sxpect to see one of those dreamy, Gid
ing waltzes you are badly fooled. 1t is
a sort of go-as-you-please style of
stacatto movement. The chances for
piling yourself in a heap on a heavily
waxed floor is moi SO great as in the
waltz, for in this the lady partner as
sumes the a la Bernhardt style of pos
ture, with chin resting on her partners
collar bone, thus being we'll braced
against any accidents. He, on his part,
encircles her waist with his right arm,
takes one glance at the floor, lmakes a
frantic effort to rub one of his ears
against the comb in her hair, and then
slides off. It is bewitchipg. Ellsworth

OUR MINERAL WE'LL.

Some months since, at the time when
the drillers at the prospecting well
north of this city struck an artesian
flow of strong salt water, which being
tested was found to contain a number
of curative properties, we published
several articles, editorial and communi-
Gated, on the feasibility of establishing
a sanitarium at Great Bend. Every
one who had at that time tested the
waters had found them beneficial taken
both inwardly and as a bath, and vari-
Gus physicians stated that the curative
qualities of the waters were above the
average of mineral wells at most water
cure establishments. Since that time
the waters have been hauled to town in
large quantities and used by many peo-
pie, all of whom willingly testify to
their merits.
Mr.. Garverick has arranged bath
room at the Grand Central hotel and is
prepared to furnish the mineral water
in any quantity. His arrangements are
but Temporary, but at present they suf-
fee for the demands. Baths can be TAX
en- there either hot or cold, and as the
patronage of his establishment increases
Mr.. Garveiick will increase the capac-
ity and facilities of his baths, and we
predict that the test or application of
the waters begun in primitive manner
and ON small scale will eventually de-
velop into something of great benefit
to the city and county.
The thing apparently most needed
now is the cooperation and assistance
of our own citezens to start the bust
ness. Ask any physician of the city
and he will tell you of the curative
properties of the water; what diseases
OF ailments can be treated by the use of
it; the manner of using, ETC., and as the
expense of trial of the waters will be
but small anyone can test them to his
or her own personal satisfaction. Then
when you have tested them and found
merit in the treatment, let it be known
to your friends both at home and
abroad, and thus help to establish a
business that any one can see could be
made great benefit to Great Bend.
The location of Great Bend, for a
water cure, or health resort, could not
be better. All invalids from the east
are advised by their physicians, when
contemplating trip to the mountains
of the west. to stop occasionally and be-
come accustomed by degrees to the
change in climate following change in
altitude. Many such health seekers
have stopped at our beautiful city and
we believe none have gone away with
out feeling that they have been bene-
flied by the natural healthfulness of
the climate alone. With the addition
of well arranged and properly conduct
ed mineral baths the benefits to inva-
lids could be greatly increased, and
thus our growing city would soon be
