DR.. sche,dtweiIsr's Experiment.

DIR. Scheidtweiler met the farmers
last Saturday, according to an
nouneement, in w. r. Geis's old
stand on east Iron avenue Ii was
found that the yield OF beets was
very large, and the per cent Of sac
eharine matter far greater than that
obtained in the old country. When
it is considered that the season has
been unfavorable on account OF ex-
cessive rains, for the growing OF
beets, the sdaptsbility OF our soil
and climate will be apparent to all.
The company DIR. Scheidtweiler re-
presents requires a contract from our
farmers to raise 300 acres OF beets
for fifteen years, in consideration OF
which they will erect sugar mill
costing not less than 5000, 1000.
We hope the contract will be made
for it means assured prosperity to
our farmers. The crop OF beets
aourishes best in a dry season.
Even should the people DR.. Scheidt-
weller represents, fail to come to
time the crop Of beets would be In
no sense n loss, for they would furn-
ish an excellent article OF feed for
stock. SO far as the experiment has
progressed, however, the Doctor,
has fulfilled all his promises, and
asked no favors. Even the effort OF
some of our state officers to destroy
his usefulness on account of his per-
sonal peculisrities has proven futile,
and he has at least demonstrated
that he has backing somewhere. The
heather In other places may rage II
they will, but 1t doesn't cost them a
cent, aud why should we care?
Four dollars per ton Is promised
for the beets, and we are informed
the experiment this year indicates q
yield OF 30 tons per acre, which
would make $40. or course a great
deal more work il necessary than
for growing other crops, but the crop
is a surer one and more profitable.
There certainly ought to be found
$500 acres out OF 10000 that could be
devoted to the cultivation Of sugar
beets, and that is about what the
promoter Of the project wants.

sALINA WINS.
The state Tesnis Medals are now
Worn Here.

Tn. state Tennis Medals are now
Worn Here.
John and Charlie Eberhsrdt, and
the Vernon brothers, attended the
State Tennis Meeting in Topeka last
Thursday aud Friday, and the result
is that the medals Tor the state
championship, both In singles and
doubles, are now worn by the Eber-
hardt brothers, while the Vernon
brothers got consolation prize.
On Thursday. the singles were
played, and John Eberhsrdt, with
his usual success in everything he
undertakes, captured the champion
ship, after q hard fought battle with
the best tennis players Of the state.
Charlie did not play Thursday, as
he was suffering from q lame back,
aud WAS not fit to play Friday, al
though he managed to be Sin 1t" to
q considerable extent.
On Friday the contest in doubles
came off, and John and Charlie were
victorious, after a long and close
series Of games, much to the chagrin
Of the Topeka players, as well as the
Capital. In fact that staunch old
paper fairly shed tears Of sorrow as
IL chronicled the defeat Of Topeka,
aud at the same time gave Salina
the victory. But under some cir.
cumstauces the facts must be pub
lished, whether they are good or
bad. This Is the way the Capital
let itself down:
The winners were now called up
on to play the state champions, the
Eberhardt brothers of Salina, who
had defeated Armstrong and Bron-
son. McCabe and Lawrence asked
that the series be decided by the best
three out Of five, and the Eberhardts
readily assented to this agreement.
Here is where the Topeka boys
made their mistake and IL cost them
the state championship. They were
both faded with the long contest
previous and though they we're not
badly defeated, still the effect OF
tteir severe PLAYING began {" show
in the last games. Both members
Of the Topeka team did excellent
playing. Lawrence's serving was
spoken of rs being as good AS ever
seen in the west while McCabe
proved himself an adept at return

but the players covered themselves
all over with glory just the same

Last Sunday evening, Mr.. r. A.
Mitchler, who had recently returned
from st. Louis, complained OF feel
ing badly. At supper time he said
he would not eat anything, and Mrs.
Mitchler left him lying down while
she went to the National for supper.
Upon her return Mr.. Mitchler was
lying on the bed unconscious, and
becoming alarmed she called in
medical aid. All night long Drs.
Jenney and Devices worked with
him, and were rewarded IN the
morning by their patient showing
signs of recovery. They report it n
case Of apoplexy. Mr.. Mitchler is
slowly recovering aud it is hoped
that he will soon be restored to his
usual good health with no bad effects
Of his recent severe attack.

Old Settlers Meeting.


The third annual meeting OF the
old settlers association OF saline
county, was held in Oak Dale Park,
Tuesday afternoon rs advertised.
The very busy season, together with
the rain Of Monday night, interfered
somewhat with the crowd, but still
several hundred were present, and
those who did attend were well re-
warded by the excellent program
presented. ]. Wayne Amos acted as
chairman, in the absence Of the pres
ideut, Thos. Anderson. The election
Of officers resulted In the selection
Of f. w. Ober as president, Nj. 8.
Price and Jonathan Weaver. vice.
presidents; w. II. johnson, secre-
tary and ]. B. Hamilton, treasurer.
Col. Phillips was called on, and
after few remarks on the early Set
Element Of this country, introduced
T. Dwight Thacher, Of Topeka, who
made the principal address Of the
day. For facts and figures his
speech was full and he gave his audi
ence q glimpse Of the size Of Kansas
as q state, and the amount annually
produced within her borders. He
dealt entirely with facts, and yet
they were q complete surprise to
most of his audience, especially
those who had never stopped to fig
ure on our resources. He claimed,
after q careful review OF what the
early settlers had accomplished that
they had builded well, and bright
and prosperous future was before
them. Mr.. Thacher is-a pleasant
taiker, and those who failed to hear
him, missed . good speech. one
that should have been listened to by
q much larger audience than wa
present.

Rev. vawter Presehes About the Origin

\ Christtan Church,

~ IN ssS.s-
Rev. vawter breaches About the Origin,
History and Position of the
Chrissian Church.
A good audience assembled at the
Christian church on Sunday morn
ing. Rev. Vawter announced that
he had few thoughts TO present up
on the origin, history and position
Of the religious movement with
which he is identified. 1t was large
subject for q twenty-five minute adj
dress, hut q great deal was ingenious
ly crowded into that short space,
and the attention Of the audience
was closely held throughout. We
subjoin a little synopsis Of the dis
course.
ave do not claim to be the church
Of Christ, nor even q church Of
Christ, but q movement within the
church of Christ in behalf OF christ
ian unity and union.
1.-THE diciples are working for
restoration Of the simple, practical
christianity Of the Christ, its creed,
its ordinance, its life.
This movement originated in the
early part Of the present century,
and has been q growth, rapid and
steady.
at assumed q distinct form in the
year 1927, when Walter Scott preach
ed in New Lisbon, Ohio, the doctrine
Of q heartfelt faith in our Lord Je-
sus Christ, accompanied by q sim
cere repentance for sin, with q
confession OF the Son Of God before
men, and baptism into the name Of
the Father, Son and Of the Holy
Spirit, for the remission Of sins.
"Up to that time the movement
had been tentative and uncei tain.
Since that date the growth in num-
bers has been remarkably rapid. In
1850 the diciples had ls9S organized
churches, called simply Churches Of
Christ, S4S ministers aud llS,6lS COM
municants.
ain 1870 they had 247s church or
ganizations, 200 ministers and 49,
600 communicates; In 1870, 800
church organizations, 1872 ministers
aud 59l ,S2i communicates; in 1880,
6l5O church organizations, 400 min
listers aud $40, 900 communicates.
Taking the half dozen leading
religious bodies Of the United States,
the diciples stand fifth In number Of
organized churches and commune
cants; I'm number Of ordained minis
tiers, fourth. At no time i'm our
history has the annual increase been
so great as at present. We are in
harmony with the evangelical
churches In believing i'm the divine
inspiration of the Holy Scripture.
the all sufficiency Of the Bible as
revelation of the divine character
and will, the personal and perpetual
mission of the Holy Spirit, the
necessity of faith and repentance in
order to the enjoyment Of salvation
here. and a life of obedience, in or
der to the attainment Of everlasting
life, the perpetuity Of baptism and
the Lords Supper rs divine ordi-
nances through all ages to the end
Of time, and the obligation to OBJ
serve the first day OF the week as
the Lords day, in commemoration
Of the resurrection OF Jesus Christ,
by acts Of worship, such a. the New
Testament teaches"

By reference to the election procls-
nation published in another column
1t will be seen that proposition Is to
be voted on at the election for the
levy Of ali additional mill on the dol
lar to erect an assembly room In
Oskdale park for general purposes.
The county and city are in great
need Of such q building to provide
for meetings. There is no auditor
ium in town large enough to accom-
modate the demand, when large
meetings are held, and the park is
the very place for such building.
By the levy Of the special tax, each
taxpayer will be compelled to pay
only 81 on each $1,000 OF valuation,
and we feel confident that the pro-
position will carry.
