in whom was conferred the joy, hope and
love of his parents. For twenty months
his prattlins tongue, prattering feet and
joyous, happy smiles, have scattered
brightest sunshine in the home which is
now darkened by deaths pathway. His
short life WAS simply the opening of
beautiful fragrant bud that simply shed
its fragrance here, but its fruit will be
found in that happy reunion Of father,
mother and child, where pain is not felt
and death enters not. Loving hands will
tenderly carry his little form to the quiet
cemetery, but the real Little Joe" thus
was and is, will live and love throughout
Gods endless eternity.

THE GAME TODAY.
The T.eavenworth Team VIII Cross Bats With
the Maroons This Afternoon.

There Will be a great game of baseball
at the ball park this afternoon, when the
crack team of the state, Leavenworth,
will oppose the Maroons. The manage
ment has been at great expense in secur-
ing this team for three games this week,
today, Friday and Saturday. The Leav-
enworth team claims the championship of
of the state and the three games will be
for blood. The Maroous have been
strengthened by the addition of three of
the best players OF the Topeka club,
Mackey, the Indian pitcher, and Fears and
McFadden. With these additions the Ma
rooms ought to be able to wrest the laurels
from the brow of the Leavenworth's.
Manager Tom Fitch has promised the
management a five minute electric car
service to and from the grounds during
these games.
Mackey, the Indian pitcher, will be in
the box for the Maroons today. 1t will
without doubt be the best series of games
played this season.
Saturday is always ladies' day and all
ladies will be admitted free on that day
There were about one hundred women
present at the game yesterday and were
very much interested in the proceedings.
The game yesterday was a walk away
for the Maroons, who redeemed them
Selves admirably for the previous defeat.

affairs of the past and gave the and gave
the patrons of treason lively trouncing.
He said that while it gave him pleasure TO
look into the faces of so many old COM
rades his heart was also the abiding place
of sorrow, for he realized that they were
getting old and infirm and must soon pass
away from this to that distant land where
the gates are ajar for all those who

and also of Oklahoma, the land flowing
with mix and honey. He then asked the
audience to join him in that grand old
song, Marching Through Georgia"

the catalogue like it, and when he sings it
the roof has to have extra fastenings.
Immediately after Col. WAITS address
he introduced Ex-Governor George I. An

tremendous applause. His speech was
wholly and entirely impromptu. and he
was not talking two minutes when the
5000 persons present each acknowledged
him to be in the very front rank of the
brainiest men in Kansas. He made
powerful speech, and one that left Its in
delible print on the heart of the people.
He paid a glowing tribute to Okla
homa, its achievements and prospects,
and also paid glowing tribute
to the people of Wichita. He then entered
on an intelligent discussion of the merits of
the late war aud handled it in a manner
that was full of force and conviction. He
warned the people to avoid the errors OF
the past and reminded them that eternal
vigilence is the price of liberty. He said
that some people wanted the loyal people
of the land to practice forgetfullness and
this he denounced as crime. He said
that the union side was either wrong or
right He knew it was right and nobody
