They left Winfield about a. IN. but at
2 o'clock came to another halt on ae-
count of the wreck north of the city.
There they remained until a m. when
a couple of coaches were sent to their
relief. Even then it was with difficulty
they got aboard on account of the high
water.
AT Wellington not long after the
crash of the cyclone a most terrific rain
fell. The water came down in torrents
and the streets were running rivers
within ten minutes. Unroofed stores
and houses were flooded, adding TO the
misery caused by the tornado. Those
who are homeless and had gathered to-
gether their scattered belongings found
themselves the next morning without
even stitch of dry clothing. Merchan-
disc in the debris which could have been
saved with partial damage is now
ruined. About twenty prominent firms
occupying unroofed buildings and others
in rooms which leaked are more or less
damaged. Before the storm there was
not an empty house in the city, and it
is an utter impossibility for those who
still have their houses intact to accom-

Ottawa letter: Ernest aleton de
Boissiere, whose magnificent generosity
to the Odd Fellows of Kansas has been
commended and extOlled in the press of
the whole country, was given a reception
which was one of the most remarkable
occasions this city has ever known. 1t
was at the auditorium, the largest public
hall in Ottawa, and was given by the L.
| o. o. F. of Kansas under the direction
of the grand lodge officers. 1t was for
the purpose of giving public expression
to the sincere gratitude of the Odd Eel
lows of Kansas to Mr.. Boissiere for his
extraordinary donation. Prominent
members of the order from Topeka,
Lawrence, Emporia, Atchison, Kansas
City, Garrett, and many other cities
were present to join in the testimonial
to the benevolent Frenchman, and many
citizens of Franklin county who are not
members OF the I. o. o. F. participated
in the ceremonies to do honor to the
man who has done so much for Franklin
county. The auditorium was crowded
to its fullest capacity and the interesting
programme was carried out in a most
satisfactory manner. 1t was a demon
stratlon such as is seldom accorded in
in Kansas to any man, whether a public
official or a private citizen.

When Judith left Lewis cell and took
her departure from the prison she saw
and read with seeming interest one of
Paxton's reward notices.
Judith had resolved not to delay in
making the revelation which she be-
lieved would result in exculpating her
brother, and she proceeded directly to
Paxton's office.
At the detectives Office Paxton him
self, Stanmore and Stuart Harland were
in council when Judith Kredge appeared.
At the sight of the janitOr's sister
Paxton anticipated the motive of her
visit, and he felt an exultant thrill
traverse his nerves.
4 am Judith Kredge, as you doubtless
know, and have something important
to tell about John Oakburn's murder, "
said the woman, abruptly.
We shall be glad to receive any in
formation, replied Paxton, calmly.
Stuart Harland was very much ex-
cited, and Stanmore showed his emotion.
Il have always been devoted TO Marion
Oakburn, and 1 have loved her and
served her faithfully for many years.
For her dear sake I would eheerfully
make any personal sacrifice" began
Judith.
You loved her SO well you even con-
scented TO take care of all her money for
her, Paxton commented, sneeringly.
Judith looked frightened, for she had
not suspected Paxton had the knowl-
edge his words implied.
She did not resume her statement I'M
til Paxton said:
IF you know anything to help your
brothers cause, or TO explain the muir
der mystery, do not delay in making it
known. assure you Lewis neck is in
| danger"
Then Judith continued:
Much as I love Marion, when it
comes to choose between her and my
own flesh and blood, nature rules. Had
not Levi been wrOngfully arrested, and
did not circumstances unjustly awaken
/ suspicion against him, 1 would not
now betray my dear Marion"
What do you mean, woman?" thun-
/ dered StanmOre.
-Patiencel patiencel" admonished
Paxton.
Judith Kredge did not heed Stanmore' g
! excited words.
| She continued calmly:
| ITO shield Marion Oakburn, I have
| kept a terrible secret. To save my own
| brother will confess it She paused,
and there was a moment of breathless
| silence.
! Stuart was on his feet, and he seemed
to await the woman's next words with
such anxiety as only one in his situation
could feel. He thought her revelation
might be his own vindieatiOn.
How shall 1 say it? I know who
killed John Oakburn, Judith went on.
Who is the assassin? The namel
the namel" demanded Paxton, eagerly.
Marion Oakburni She killed heI
own father, said the woman.
Stanmore sprang to his feet, and
scarcely knowing what he did in the ex-
element of the moment he seized judith
| by the arm, as he Kissed:
! Its "A lie! an Infamous lie!"
You are a brave man to insult a wom-
an, retorted Judith; Stanmore's face
/ flushed, and realizing his conduct he re.
leased her.

STOCK AND FARM.

Lyons Tribune: Rock Stoddard has
been breaking prairie sod this spring
and has turned over forty acres al
ready, besides caring for other spring
crops.
Rossville Times: The heavy rains SO
saturated and softened the soil in
Morse Reser's orchard that thirty of
his fine apple trees became victims of
the strong winds, being fairly up
rooted.
Ellsworth Messenger: We recently
drove through T. o. Fox's flock of
sheep, west of town about four miles.
They are looking well. At rough es-
innate we would say there were about
$50 spring lambs among them. If the
weather continues warm he will begin
shearing.
Syracuse Principles: Although we are
having a very cold, backward spring,
We think fall wheat and rye are two or
three weeks earlier than last season, and
if nothing happens to it from now on
there will be three times the amount
raised in this township that there was
last year.
The reports of the Santa Fe land de-
| partment from all over the state are be-
ing sent in. They all show most excel
lent prospects for crops, especially in
western Kansas, where wheat is returned
at 100 per cent, and all grains flourish
ing. The planting of corn in the east
ern part of the state is very backward,
hardly 80 per cent of it being in the
ground. Wheat is damaged somewhat
! by excessive rains.
Geo. r. Anthony, in speaking of his
| Northern Kansag farm, said: AZ have
ninety acres of wheat that is in first
class condition, 100 acres of tame grass
that is fine, and am planting thirty acres
of corn in addition to the eighty acres
already in. It is going to be good
year." Three thousand acres of corn is
cribbed on Mr.. Anthony's farm and
waiting for good prices. Mr.. Anthony
| always keeps one years crop OF corn
ahead and sells when the market is good.
| He has made a study of corn planting
and says that '1isting' is the only way
to plant corn in Kansas and be reason
abb sure of a good crop.
Colby Tribune: Eastern farmers
may be a little incredulous as to the
large acreage put in by the compare
lively few farmers in this county, as told
in another column. AS an instance of
how it is done, we cite the method of
one of Wendell townships prosperous
farmers, Henry Franklin. He has a
riding pillow to which he bitches four
horses. Attached to the pillow behind is
| one section of a harrow. On the pillow
in front of him is a continuance for hold
ing seed wheat, and every fourth round
he sOws the wheat broadcast. In this
manner he plows, sows and harrows all
at one time, thereby enabling him to do
as much work as three men do in the
east, with comparatively little labor.

a snow-shOe competition for ladies
was lately held by the Christiania
SnOw-ShOe Club. The interesting
event took place on hill which not
many years ago was considered a very
difficult one for men, but the fair
snOw-shOe runners did wonderfully
well. They not only comprised the
descent without slaves or poles but
even insisted upon hop being added.
The request was complied with, and
they had not, as it turned out, over

the hop was cleared in the best style.
Three prizes were awarded, and a
dance brought the day to a close.

Physicians throughout the country are
gradually beginning to give more and mora
attention to the subject Of dermatology. At
few years ago it was a very popular belief tina
a birthmark could by no possible means be
eradicated from the skin. We have only to
go back very short time to recall dramas in
which the william was tracked from town to
town and eventually handed over to outraged
justice through a scar or birthmark which re-
vealed his identity. A drama built on such a
foundation would meet with wen-merited
ridicule to-day. The william would not be such
