The sheriff of Johnson county, Kan,
forwarded notice to Sheriff Smith of this
county to-day that lot of merchandise
had heen stolen from the sore of Bigelow
& Foster, of Gardner.Kan., and the owner
will probably pay $50 for the return of the
goods and S25 for the arrest and convict
ion of the thief. That word probably"
knock all Interest out of the case. AID Of
fcer would hardly spend SIS or $50 on
such promise of reward.
Sheriff Reese, of Fort Scott, offers re-
ward of $50 for the arrest of Barney Web

Under a Trip Hammer.

George Eads, blacksmith in the
Missouri Pacific shops, had his right
hand badly mashed under a heavy

working a piece of iron under it when

and thumb or at least crushing them
50 that half-moon shaped piece will
have to be cut out of the upper side
of the hand. He was taken to the
NJ. K. & T. hospital. where his in
juries will be looked after.

Two of the financial syndieatss con-
sidering the question of taking the st.
Louis elevated railroad bonds have decided
that such road will not pay in St Louis
and decline to supply the necessary funds.
A plan to raise the money by popular
loan among the citizens of st. Louis is now
under consideration. 1t is thought that 5
per cent bond of small demonstration
can be placed readily in the same
manner that the c., B. & Q. hoated TO-
0QO, 900 dollar per cent loan. The Q.
bonds were issued in denominations OF $50
each and placed on sale at every bank on
the line. The bonds we're taken in less
than q month. The success OF the railroad
induces the managers Of the elevated rail-
road to try the same plan In raising money
for their project.

BookMAKING AS A TRADE.
\ Dismal View of "Ihe Trick and
Art of Literature"


Art Of Literature"
Hon. f. j. Phelps in Scribner's.
Bookmaking has become a trade.
Profit is the chief end The day of stu
dous and self denying lives, devoted to
study and to thought, and regardless of
gain, are almost gone by. Literature
is no longer cultivated upon little
oatmeal" nor for its own sake on any
fare. Men do not write because they
are charged with a message to human
ity that has been mellowed and tenn
ppred 10y long reflection. by communion
with nature and the high influences or
the soul. To catch the ear of the pubic
by lucky hit or device, to take a pnpu-
lar tide at the food, to dash off solne-
thing or compile something that VIII
sell, and if success of this sort attracts
attention to the name of the writer,
then to push it for all it is worth by the
most rapid production possible OF
whatever the name NAV make market
tor-this is the trick and art of what is
called literature.
Reputation depends on good manage
ment much more than OH merit. Not
50 were the enduring achievements OF
the human intellect brought forth.
They were not the product of any age
of words. They came chiefly out OF the
great silences, when Thought was
mightier than speech. when words were
few but fit. There has been noise
enough always in the world, no doubt.
and it has died away for the most part
irto everlasting silence. 1t is only the
sIlences that have becume vocal, whose
voices remain and will remain.

The English feed sheep largely and

Never keep sheep in the stable Ing

DO not forget to water the sheen irn,

says to the contrary, furnish plenty OF
water.
Sheep like old pastures Of mixeI

sleeps back is not the pasture for
sheep.
Raising sheep and growing wool Is j
business that is as old as the hills. anGi
yet the average man can learn somf>
thing III the business.
The flockmaster who has not SAT-.

according to the highest standard OF lila
telligence. Do you think he is?
Of course some farms are better suited
to the sheep and wool business than
others. but almost any farm is fit or can
be made fit for sheep.
Sheep, in order to do well, must have
all conditions Favorable. This animal
is easily affected and certainly affected

HELPS ltats FARMER.
This Is How the Fargo Farmer
rbinks the Tar fl Benefits Him.


There lies a locomotive. The track
has been removed. The ponderous
wheels have been driven with mighty
force into the earth, and the Missing
steam escapes with deafening roar.
A picture Of massive strength, capable
of moving a heavily loaded train of
freight at the rate of forty miles an
hour, but lying there. Un its side.
totally helpless, simply because it is off
the track. 1t is perfect machine, con-
trived with wondrous ingenuity and
skill-its steel glistening under the rays
of the sun. beautiful, powerful, but
helpless. Is not this striking illustra-
ton of the position American farmers
find themselves, under the benefcient
policy of protection? A powerful force
without direction. An eng n6--Of the
track.
Will YOU farmer readers. who think
that this tariff question is matter con-
corning which you have no special in
terest. take little time to follow US, as
we briefly picture the condition we find
ourselves in to-day.
Here, throughout the West, is a mag
niticent farming country. The soil is
productive, stock of all kinds thrive.
Our markets are brought close to our
doors. Land is cheap. Nature is as
lavish in the bestowal of her gifts here
as in any part Of the globe. The sun
shines, the dew and the rain nOurish
the growing plants, while the farmer
sleeps, and still how many are making
more
A BARE LIVING?
You practice the strictest economy,
your wife makes over her old dresses
for the girls, and your Old garments for
the boys. The butter and the eggs are
traded for groceries, and still how MANY
dollars can you show as gain for the
years of hard labor of yourself and fam
ily? How is it about those who handle
the products of the farm? Men who
have otter begun life with less than
it would take to buy out single quar-
ter section farm, but like lily,
they neither toll nor spin, nor gather
INTO barus, but the glory of Solomon
goes into the shade by comparison.
Bow soon we see them driving in tihe
eauipages. living in costly houses, and
enjoying all the luxury that wealth can
give. Now we ask, where does the divi-
sion of profit come in? Who gets the
profit, the man who produces or the
man who handles it after it is pro-
duced? 1t doesn't take o philosopher
to see that something is wrong. That
there is neither justice nor equity in
such division of labor and profit, If
there is such margin between the
price that the buyer pays the farmer,
and what he receives for it himself, it
is very plain that the producer Is being
swindled. Still, like the engine off the
track, our farmers, in numerical num-
bers, the largest, with the power n
their own handsy resolutely face an
open switch, and plunge into the ditch.
Every year it is
THE SAME OLD STORY
The mortgage that was to be lifted in
two years has dragged along miser-
able six years, and has TO be renewed
again. Doesn't it strike you that there
is some evil genius that is taking from
you what is rightly yours, and isn't his
