Topeka Capital: The Young Mems
Christian association received permits

young men to attend that number of

ity with which their talks were received
is very gratifying to the boys. Several
of the ministers preached especial ser
mons to suit the occasion. The associa-
ton appears not only to be regaining
all its old friends but making many new
ones, and the modest request they are
making of the citizens has every indics-

STOCK AND FARM,

Oxford Mocking Bird: Joseph Hahn
sold his herd of 40 hogs to Dan Winn,

on the cars at Kellogg, and were as fine
bunch of hogs as ever entered the

was judged by some to be about 44O
pounds.
Halstead Independent: Doc Pierce is
feeding 1914 head of steers and over 200
head of hogs. He says he will hold
them until he receives ) cents pound.
Doc is recognized as one of our most
successful stock growers, and says he
made more money last year on 5O-cent
corn than any year since he came to
this country.
independence Star and Kansan: Mart
Mangan. of Cherry township, says he
has forty acres of timothy and clover
that he has mown for several years, and
that last year it yielded two tons per
acre. He permits his stock to run on it
all winter, removing them about the LIST
OF May. Mr.. Mangan is one of our sue

Burlington Nonpareil: G. W. Taylor
will put in sixty acres to timothy on
the old Holland farm. He will use a
bushel of seed to every four acres, and
the seed will be sown on the best bottom
land on that farm. Other farmers
should follow his example. More tame
grass means plenty of good hay and
pasturage for stock and less cookie
burrs and fox tail.

Professor l.. l.. Hanks and the chemis-
try class from the high school made a
trip to Argentine and were shown
through the smelter. The visit was
made for the purpose of witnessing the
practical chemical tests made in handling
the ore. The company furnished them
l. K. Thurman for a guide and he
showed the visitors every process to
which the ores are subjected in the
smelter, starting them in at the place
where the ore is crushed and following
it closely until it is refined. The visit
was pleasant one and all were delighted
with it. It gave the members of the
class many new ideas of practical chem
istry that will be of value to them in
their studies.

A Negro Wife Murderer Hanged at
Spokane.
SPOKANE (Wash.), Sept. 6.-Charles
Brooks, an aged negro, was hanged this
morning in the courtyard of the County
Jail. His crime was the murder of his
white wife, Christine Dohlman, on July
5, 1891. The condemned man held up
until the last without the slightest appear
ance of fear.
Brooks slept soundly all night. show
ing little restlessness or uneasiness. He
awoke at o'clock, saying he had good
nights rest. He smoked a cigar while
lying in bed. At 6:I5 he rose and dressed
himself in new black Prince Albert
suit. For breakfast he ate only a bowl of
mush
A few minutes later Rev. Brown and
Rev. Taylor entered his cell to offer spir-
itual consolation. After talking a short
time they sang hymn, in which Brooks
Joined. This was followed by scriptural
reading, after which ASK Heaven to
Help YOU was sung at Brooks request.
At 40 o'clock Sheriff Pugh entered the
cell and read the death warrant Brooks
listened to it calmly and without emotion.
After the warrant was read Sheriff Pugh
informed Brooks that the time for exc

man walked from his cell to the scaffold
with ready step, and smile and nod
for every body whom he knew. Brooks
smoked a cigar on the way TO the gallows
and did not throw it away till he began
to speak.
When all were upon the scaffold.
Brooks stood up and began talking in a
subdued tone, inaudible to every body ex-
cept those on the scaffold. AS he pro-
ceeded his voice became gradually higher
until it reached a shrek.
When Brooks concluded speaking,
Rev. Brown asked him to join with them
in singing "When / Can Read Ny Title
Clear" Brooks joined in the song, and
smiled and bowed to the audience in the
meanwhile with seeming satisfaction.
Precisely at $40 o'clock Brooks was
placed on the trap, and his hands and
legs pinioned with stout leather straps by
the deputies in charge, and the moose
was adjusted. All the time Brooks was
smiling and nodding to the people stand

at S:45, and the moose was so arranged
that the drop would break his neck. At

His neck was broken and he died almost
