THE suggestion has come from members of the Holland County bar that B. H. Bill of Rockville be made judge of the superior court. It would be frst-class selection. Judge Loomis will, within two years, retire by reason of age limitation. MT. Bill would make most excellent judge. Holland Coun- ty has given to the state some of it's best judges, and the name of B.

FIRE.

About $50 last night the department was
called out by a small fire starting in the
rear part of the Globe Iron works. Atthat
part of the building there is number of
old boxes and pattern frames piled aud it
was among these that the fire was dis
covered, undoubtedly the work OF an in
cendiary. The only notice the department
received of the fire was from two men driv-
ing past in a carriage and shouting to tie
watchman that there was q fire on Second
street. The companies were quickly out
but the fire was not discovered until they
were close to the building. y few minutes
more, however, and the loss, instead of be-
ing very Slight, would have been great.

GREAT MEETING.
Eighth Annual State Convention OF the Young
Mems Christian Association OF Kansas,
Topeka. October 1920.

The eighth annual state convention OF
the Young Mems Christian Association Of
Kan will be held in the city of Topeka,
October 1920. The convention of last
year was attended by over GEO delegates,
making it the largest state gathering ever
held in the west Arrangements are now
being made for the caring for 500 delegates,
and it is confidently expected that the
coming great meeting will be the largest
state convention ever held in the world.
The railroad companies have again grant
ed reduced rates. and the citizens OF Tope-
ka offer entertainment for all delegates
and corresponding members There Will
be room for pastors, fathers, mothers, rail-
road men, college men, business men, pro-
fessional men, boys and young men, and 1t
is believed that the meeting viii be one OF
unusual interest aud profit.
A large orchestra and male chorus, IN
der charge of Prof. d. Is. Towner, one Of
the best leaders in the country, will be a
helpful feature of the meeting. In addi-
ton to the good workers throughout the
state help is expected from the following:
Rev. A. 7. Pierson, ID. D., Philadelph ia;
John V. Farwell, of Chicago; Evangelists
F. W. Bliss and Geo. c. Needham; DR.. II.
Gratten Guinness, of London, and X. T.
Speer, OF Princeton. The state executive
committee still believes in Kansas, in her
young men. her business men and her
associations, and with renewed faith in the
Great Captain extensive plans are being
laid for the year 1890. For the carrying on
of the regular work with increased earn
estness. for the work among the Indian
tribes to the south of US, for the young
men in unorganiZed towns and country
places, and for the railroad and college
work.
The financial meeting of the convention
will be held Saturday morning, Octo-
Der 10.
We are glad TO note that with the in
creased prosperity in worldly matters our
STATE does not forget nor take up with
Indifference the work that pertains TO the
best interests of her young men, and we
believe that Kansas will still retain her
position as the leader in aggressive work
undertaken by the Lords people for the
helping of young men.
Persons wishing to attend can obtain
full information by applying to any gen
eral secretary IN the state or by address,

/ wish to call the attention Of those who
have an interest in, as well as those whose
duty it is to look after the welfare of the
city of Wichita The greed of individuals
along the banks of the Arkansas river
seems to know no bounds. With the
island in the middle OF the river constantly
growing larger, and individuals on either
side constantly filling in to enlarge their
borders, the channel will not be sufficient
to carry the water in time of flood. The
city has been flooded once, and the floods
will come again. / would ask interested
parties TO go at once and look up the mat
ter Just now material is being hauled
out into the river that will catch the wash,
and narrow the channel one or two humid
red feet more. This channel question
should be looked up at once all the way
through the city, and the boundary fixed
for the floods will come again. IL. +.

Doing.

Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette.
Mr.. j. s. McGill, an old Cincinnati boy,
is just back from Wichita, Sedgwick
county. Kansas, where he owns considera-
BILE land. He was on change yesterday
and mad with him some samples of corn,
oats and other grain. The corn was i'm
mense, as were all the other specimens.
I'VE have splendid crop this year" said
Mr.. McGIll "Sedgwich county will yield
ten million bushels of corn for 1889, an
average of over sixty bushels to the acre.
In Southern Kansas they are turning their
attention to sugar making. 1t is a fine
grade of sugar, and they are raising it in
abundance"
How is Bill Bishop getting along"
He is there with his son Harry, and the
one, in the wholesale cigar business. They
have four men on the road all the time and
are getting along nicely. oh. yes, they are
there now, settled as citizens, and Will
grow up with the country.

A GOOD THING FOR A LARGE PORTION
OF THE CITY.

BY the proceedings of the city council at
its last meeting we noticed a proposition
from the electric street car line company
to connect the line ending at Market and
Douglas with the line running east on
Williams street. This will be good thing
for the residents of Paramount and inter
vening additions, for the Burton car
works people and for the homes on River
side. The operation of the electric lines
by this proposed new extension will bring
all the people named directly to the post
Office in the government building and en-
able these same people to reach the Santa
Fe and the Rock Island depots without
change of cars, quickly and conveniently.
We have heard nothing but hearty en-
dorsements of the plan, and the city coun-
Gil should promptly grant that which Will
prove such marked convenience and ad-
vantage TO such a great number OF people.

THE CLEVER POODLE.
How He Got Rid of a Hated Instrument

ROW He Got Rid of a Hated Instrument
of Torture.
Some twenty years back we had poodle
white, with one black ear. After the
manner of his race, he was never quite
happy unless he carried something in his
mouth. He was intelligent and teachable TO
the last degree. The great defect in his
character was the impossibiIity of distin.
gushing nleune from ttaVn Any thing he
could get hold of he seemed to think, ac-
cording to his logged ethics to be fairly
his own. On one occasion he entered the
room of one of the maid servants and stole
her loaf of bread, carefully shutting the
door after him with his feet, the latter part
being feat I had taught him. The
woman Irish-was scared. and thought
that the dog was the devil incarnate The
necessity of discipline on the one hand and
of occupation on the other induced me one
day to enter saddler's shop, situated in
straight street about half a mile from our
house. and buy a whip. Shortly after my
return home he committed some act Of
petty larceny, SO gave him a beating with
the whip he had carried home. Going for
q walk next day, the dog, as usual, accom-
panied me- and was intrusted with the
whip to carry. Directly we got outside the
door he started off at his best pace straig BIT
down the street, paying no attention wi, tt
ever to my repeated call He entered ae
saddler's shop and deposited the WHIP on
the floor. When I arrived, tha saddler
showed me the whip lying exactly where
