The Mound City Clarion gives the
Kansas men the advice tie stick to their
farms. This will do well enough for
the majority, but in a great many cases
'.the other fellow has got the mort
gage, and mortgages stick closer than
anything else.
Kansas people are nothing if not
ingenious. The latest result of their
ingenuity is first class article of maple
syrup, made from corn cobs and brown
sugar. About one-half dozen corn cobs
are cleaned and boiled in water until
the substance is well out of them; then
sugar is melted, of course in water, to
make about quart of syrup, when the
cob juice and syrup are boiled togeth er
until the right consistency is reached.
The result is'a syrup which person
right from sugar BUSH cannot dis
tinguish from the genuine article.
An eccentric old bachelor named
Frank Ebeling died the other day at
AtchiSOn, Kansas. He was originally
brewer, but embarked in the grain
business long before AtchisOn had
an elevator. He had d large ware
house and lived in his office. Among
MS assets are 5000 bushels of wheat
which he had in his warehouse five
years, refusing TO Sell because the price
never reached his mark of value. The
care OF this wheat was his fondeSt Occu-
patton, and be constantly turned ii
with wooden shovel until the kernels
have become as glossy as the surface of

A Cincinnsti woman died the other
day of imagination: That is to say she
had prophesied that she would die at I,

summoned all the relatives from :aI

Topeka, and, although she was III the
best OF health and was censured by heI
relatives and even her pastor for in.
dulging in such foolish beliefs she died
pro nptly at the stated hour by sitting
down in her chair and closing her eyes
when the clock struck. Although this
! is not the only case of the kind OIL
record, it opens new field for thought
and action. If it is possible for people
to die of Imagination, what's the matter
with people paying their debts Or get

HARRISON will permit no silver leg
islatiOn this session of congress. That
appears to be the state of affairs at this
writing. He may be too pigheaded to
see it, but the west will inform Mr..
Harrison that by thus catering to the
wishes of the eastern gold bugs he is
driving another nail in the coffin of his
dead party, and while the sound of his
hammer is yet ringing in the ears of
our people triumphant democracy will
be making longer strides towards the
White House. Hammer away, Bonnie;
you make pleasant music for the ears of
an enlightened people.
SPEAKING about the necessity for a
new state constitution, the Emporia
Republican says: 1.-The people are
ready for it. The refusal, by overwhelm-
ing majorities, to vote the two amend
ments submitted at the November cleo
ton shows that the voters of Kansas
are opposed To any more patching OF
the fraZzled old instrument. They are
not uRmindful of the states needs in
the particulars covered by the submit
ted propositions, but they DO not want
to provide for them in that way. They
know new constitution is Imperative
-ly demanded. and they want these de-
fects and all others of a similar nature
remedied in the natural, sensible and
most desirable way"
