DEAR SIR
take pleasure on behalf ofthe Company
in presenting you the enclosed Certificate OF
its paid up stock for s. as a token of APP,
probation Of the good and faithful service
rendered by you as an employee of this
Company,
Yours truly,
NICHOLS & SHEPARD COMPANY,
BY Il. G. NICHOLS, TREAS
The gift of the stock is absolute and
unconditional, and its actual value
much more than its face.
The history of this company is some
what remarkable. Commencing forty
two years ago, in the then small vii.
lage of Battle Creek, as the firm OF
Nichols & Shepard, it has gone through
all the vicissitudes of nearly half a
century, without a break in its good
record, and with an ever increasing
and prosperous business.
The original founders of AS are still
alive and able to enjoy the competence
earned by their long and well directed
effort.
Duringall these years there has never
been strike in its works, nor has the
wages of its men ever been cut or re-
duced. 1t has always encouraged its
workmen to own their homes, and has
furnished means to buy lots and to
build houses, giving them any needed
time in which to earn the money to
pay for them.
AS consequence nearly all their
employees are owners of good and com
Portable homes, and surrounded with
the comforts of life. 1t is one of the
boasts Of this city that nowhere can SO
many neat aud desirable houses, owned
by workmen, be found as here, and
the generous policy Of this company
has been a large factor in bringing
about that most desirable result.
1t is the expectation of the Company
to make further donations of stock to
other deserving employees in its SER
vice, from time to time, as circum.
stances may justify.
The philosophers, political econo-
mists and all others who look with APP.
prehension upon the strained relations
existing between labor and capital may
we'll consider whether like spirit of
generosity from all employers to their
wage earners would not go far toward
the trouble that now sur
rounds the great labor question.
w. G. Warfield, of SadlersviIle,
Tenn, a farmer and gentleman well
known for his high character and cor
rect dealings, is the general agent for
this company for Tennessee and Ken
lucky, with office at Nashville, Tenn.

II is often said that corporation
has no soul,n but as corporation is
only company of individuals con-
Quoting business affairs, the amount of
''soul" in the corporation must de-
pend largely upon the personal quail
ties of those who manage and control
the business.
These reflections are induced by the
action recently taken by the Nichols d
Shepard Company Of the Vibrating
Thresher and Engine Works of this
city.
This company has just donated
nearly fifty thousand dollars of its paid
up stock to employees and workmen,
accompanying the gift with the follow
ing letter:

For THE WORLDS FAIR.

Are you going to the great worlds
fair in Chicago in 1893? If you have
q notion of going perhaps the follow.
ing letter will be of interest to you.
It explains itself, but you had better
keep it for reference:
To THE EDITOR: AS member of
the committee on Irrational co-opera-
ton" for the worlds fair TO be held in
Chicago in 1893, l tried to persuade
the worlds fair authorities that our
farmers and the plain people ought to
be provided with railroad fares at one
cent mile of actual travel going and
coming, and that u good room to sleep
i'm with one or two beds ought to he
had at one dollar u day in this city.
The fair managers dare not take that
step. need not say why. Anyone
can guess folhimsclf. Now, sir, | am
known by every farmer in the country
as "the dehorner." and propose as |
now live in Chicago to go at il and do
that thing myself. OF conrse it is
missionary labor. No matter, sir: /
have been u farmers missionary for
many years.
Now, brother editor, let every read
CT of your paper send me on Il postal
card his name and post office address
if he wishes TO attend 1.-The great
worlds fair" in 1893. / propose TO
catalogue these names and at my own
expense | will find all The rooms in
this city TO be had at one dollar day,
and all there is TO do when the time
comes will be to send each person
whose name | have postal card with
name and number aud they can 90
directly to the place assigned in this
city. l am moved 10 do this more on
account Of the mothers and children,
for can see that in a few years the
children will all be men and women.
and will thank both You and l fer
seeing the fair and taking this trouble
and pains now on their account. The
intention here is TO charge two dollars
Il day apiece for sleeping place, and
l am not minute too soOn 10 begin
this labor of love. want no pay at
all. Send me the names and ! will
find you all room if You conclude TO
come. II we wait until the fair be-
gins it can't be arranged. We expect
to build cheap buildings if needed,
but of course must have something TO
be guided by a. to how many would
like TO come. Address,

The very conspicuous Gin his own
mind editor of the Galena Times at
tempts to get off something very fun
nv in his last issue with regard to our
assertion in the News that A. G. Ham
back late of Kansas City had rented
property here, being interested IN
mines east of here" The Times man
seems to want people to believe that
the mines we alluded 10, and in fact
all OF the lead and zinc mines of
Southeastern Kansas, are located with
in the corporate limits of Galena and
Empire City. He seems TO be really
overcome with mirlh at the thought
that we "didn't know it," while we
are free to confess we didn't know it.
If such was the fact, however, we
made no grave error in saying 'inter-
es,ed in mines east Of here" because
that would mean either of the two
great towns where people are bent on
making money, but naturally seek
more pleasant places of residence
when their wealth will admit Of It,.
We did not desire to slight Galena in
the item, but as matter OF fact we
did not know at the time we wrote it
whether Mr.. Hanback, was interested
in Galeha, Joplin, Empire, Belleville,
Stanley or where, except that the
mines were east Of here. Hereafter
when we have TO say anything about
Galena people we will drive over to
the Times Office and have the abnol-
mally large Drained % editor Of that
great journal tell us what 1t shall be.

An Ingenious Swindler.

The incident Of the arrest of a man
in London for the attempt To swindlc
q jeweler in that city, by means of the
philosophers stone" through which
he pretended TO increase the bulk OF
gold, brings to mind the attempt and
success to the amount of 100000,
which some Baltimore gentlemen were
done out of about three years ago.
The n. Y. Tribune, which publish
cd the account of the arrest few days
ago, concludes that the culprit in lin
DO is the same individual who swind-
led the Baltimorean merchants in u
similar ingenious manner, as follows:
About three years ago a man came TO
Baltimore and introduced himself to a
real estate agent as Mr.. Gephart. He
unfolded his scheme of increasing the
bulk of gold, aud invited the agent TO
call at his rooms. The agent gave
Gephart a gold dollar, which was
placed in a small crucible and white
powder was added by Gephart. The
two men took turns at blowpipe in
increasing the heat of the cruri6le un-
Ill the gold was melted and mixed
with the chemical. II was then allow
cd to cool, after which Gcphart took il
out, gave it TO the agent and told him
10 send it TO the United States mint to
be assayed and recoined. The mint
officials returned a report showing
three times the amount OF gold that
was put into the crucible. The real
estate agent became convinced of the
value of Gephart's secret, and intro
luced Gcphart TO several wealthy citi-
zens, and they too became convinced
of Gephart's ability 10 increase the
bulk OF gold.
\ stock company was formed, and
the basement of the house OF one Of
the men interested was selected as the
place of operations. One of the gold
increasing company furnished about
$4,000 IN gold and the other four
about $4,000 each. In the presence
of the whole party Gephart apparent
ly put all this gold into one of the watts
and placed it on the fire. He then put
in quantity OF The powder and other
chemicals. Ii doing this, however. lac
declined TO permit any of the party TO
approach the vat, saying that the
fumes of the chemicals would over
power any one not prepared 10 resist
them. A top was put on the vat, aud
at the suggestion of Gephart extra
strong locks were procured. and the
vat was securely fastened with them.
The same precautions were taken with
the door of the basement. The keys
were given TO the man IN whose house
the experiment was being tried. Gep-
hart said that the vat must not be-
opened for three weeks. After re-
manning about the city for several
days, Gephart said he was called 10
distant city on business, but would re-
turn on the day appointed for taking
out the gold. He did not come as
promised. The real estate agent he
came suspicious, and persuaded the
party TO make All investigation.
They went to the cellar, and upon
opening the vat found that the gold
had al disappeared, while in its place
was a lot of rocks and scrap iron.
The men were dumfounded. The eel
lar had been entered sur-eptitiously
and the GOLD stolen,.
