The first wheat shipped from this
county was in 1890. The total ship
ment was three cars amounting to
$1,000 bushels. In 1891 80 cars
were shipped the sum total being
about 5000 bushels. The crop for
1892 is estimated at 1885, 900 bushels
the most of which has already gone
to the mill The increase in the
product of oats and barley has been
in about the same ratio. These fig

EDITOR LAMAR REGISTER, Dear Sir:
/ read letter of NJ. Scott Chilcott's
in recent issue of the REGISTER stat
ing that he Is Kelley graduate etc,
which assertion is certainly true.
We have never authorized anyone to
claim Mr.. Chilcott as a Silver State
cure. But as to his belief, that the
Kelley treatment is the only perma-
nent cure for drunkenness, read the
following from the Pueblo Evening
Star of September ID:
PREFERRED OVER ALL.
''Mr. Scott Chilcott has identified
himself with the Silver State Gold
Cure Co. Mr. Chilcott is a Kelley
graduate and after long and careful
observation of the gold cure treat
ment used by the Silver State com
pany considers it equal and in many
respects superior to the Keeley
treatment. Mr. Chilcott is ready at
any and all times to give information
in regard to the gold cure treatment
and cordially invites all victims of
the liquor habit to consult him"

FIFTH EDITION,


Mrs. Mary A. Llyermofe, Of MeIrose,
Massachusetts, occupied the pulpit OF
the Unitarian Church yesterday morn.
ing and preached q practical, power.
ful sermon to a large congregation.
Mrs. Livermore, though she took no
text, based her remarks principally
upon the following passage OF scrip.
ture: And whatsoever of you will be
the chiefest shall be servant Of all. -
Mark K: A.
After eloquently abiding to the civi.
earth she dwelt forclbly and pleasant
ly upon the standard of intellectual
civilization as introduced nearly 1900
years ago by a man who the civilized
world delights to call Master. Under
the old system, life was struggle,
in which only the strong succeeded,
and the weak were the rightful prey Of
the strong, but the Master severed
this political economy. He taught
that the strong must defend and carry
the weak-that man must love, and
not hate his brethren. His christian
system was summed up on these
words:
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, and with all thy
soul, and with all thy mind.
This is the first and great COM
mandment.
And the second Is like 1t. thou shalt
love thy neighbor as thyself."
Mrs. Iivermore said she remember
ed the time when she thought this Inn
possible, but experience had taught
her better, She referred to Lady SOM
crset, who quietly slipped Go into
the hand of poor woman who told
her tale OF woe, and of John Burns,
who, when he was running an express
train from Buffalo, N, Y, to Chicago,
calmly gave directions for saving $50
passengers who were In the caes
behind him, prayed for his wife and
child without thinking OF himself, and
drove his engine into q wreck with
force enough to knock 1t out of the
way and was the only man on the
train who was hurt.
| He drove his engine into the wreck,
| assured that he could not escape, but
| God had cared for the man who had
| forgot himself in his love for the $50
| people behind him. Wounded and
| bleeding he calmly lifted his hat and
emptled out OF 1t the money and valua-
bles which the grateful people shower
cd on him, telling them that he was
repaid In having been able to save
their lives.
To-day 700, 100000 of people ac-
knowledge this law of love expounded
by Christ, who believe it possible To
| have His spirit and to follow 1t out uI-
der Ills leadership. Love of man ID
the essence OF Christianity.

d. Anderson Buried.

Daniel b. Anderson, who died on
/ Wednesday aged "a years, was blurred
yesterday afternoon In the cemetery
attached to Union A. NJ. Il. Church,
French street above Twelfth. Tho
remains were taken from tho late resi-
dcnce OF the deceased. Lancaster ave.
nue. and Union street to the church at
! o'clock, where interesting religious
services were held. Touching reminis-
cences OF the life OF the deceased were
alluded to and his christian character
was highly extolled.
amongst tho principal speakers
were; Bishop Spencer Williams, and
Reys. Messrs. Purnell, B. L. Ruley and
John Davis. The death Of the father
calls TO remembrance the tragic death
OF his son, William Spencer Anderson
in Liberia In 1872. In 1853 when but
22 years OF age, young Anderson went
to Liberia, where his Intelligence was
soon recognized and he was elected to
tho lower branch OF the National LIE
gislature and became Speaker OF the
House.
After he had served a term he was
sent by his government to negotiate q
loan Of $500, 900 in England, which he
accomplished. Paying his parents
here visit he returned to Liberia and
leaving the public service he engaged
In mercantile pursuits and aocumu-
lated much property. He was assass-
mated by political opponent Septem-
Der 18th, 1872 and died on the 27th
i when he was only 43 years OF age.
