FRIDAY, JUNE 16, 1898.

NOBODY would think that so hard
headed, practical matter of fact law
yer as L. w. Keplinger would write a
poem. But he has done it, and the
X. c. Gazette closes half column re-
view of it as follows:
No adequate conception of the beau
ty and grandeur of the poem can be
obtained at single reading of it,
much less from a meager description
and a few random quotations. That
the poet is finished scholar and
classic reader. and has powerful and
retentive memory the production gives
abundant evidence. The poem
abounds in beautiful narration and
touches upon scores of memorable
historical events. 1t has all the dig
nifty of an epic, and many features of
the drama, though it is neither. 1t is
tue unfolding of a drama, whose en-
actment the history of the Aryan rae
es chronicles. permitting us to take, as
it were, birds eye view of the Aryan
races from the time they were dis
persed from the plains of Shinar,
where they attempted to erect the
tower of Babel, to 1913 when the ma
lions of the world have succeeded
in building, without confusion, the
marvellous ''White City" The poem
will be admired for its sublimity of
conception, its beauty of narrative
and description, and its depth and
power of imagination.

Lower Fare to the Worlds Fair

The Santa Fe Route has lowered
the Worlds Fair rate. 1t leads
while others follow; being first to cut
the price as well as first in quick and
comfortable service.
The present ticket rate from lola,
Kans., and return is S21.55.
TheColumbian exposition represents
the world in miniature. You get a
European trip without the ocean voy-
age. To miss this chance for self ed
vacation would be a mistake always
regretted. Another mistake would
be not TO go over the Santa Fe Route,
which has the best and most direct
line to Chicago. Passengers landed
within one to four blocks of rapid
transit lines to Fair grounds.

Obituary.

John Ashley Britton, son of Mr..
and Mrs. ID. d. Britton, died at the
residence of his parents in Usage
township Sunday morning. June II,
1893. Funeral services were conduct
ed at the house Monday morning
by Rev. G.. w. Trout and the remains
were then brought to lola for inter-
ment.
The deceased was in his 10Th year,
just entering upon manhood. He was
born on the farm where he died and
nearly all his life was spent there.
Early in the spring he went to Okla
homa, but returned from there seven
weeks ago. He spent most of the
time for three or four weeks after that
with fishing party, and it is thought
that the exposure thus incurred
brought on the attack of typhoid fever
from which he died. When first COM
PEELED to take to his bed, about three
weeks ago, he was i'm the employ of
one of the neighbors. James Gillian.
He grew worse rapidly and about a
week before his death he was taken
home. He lost consciousness, how
ever, before reaching there, and never
regained it sufficiently to know where
he was. He begged piteously to have
his father and mother brought to him,
unable to recognize them as they
stood by his bed side, and among his
last words was a request that some
body should write to his mother and
tell her that in his last hours he
thought of her and wanted her.
John was the oldest son of his par
ents, and his death is blow that is
hard for them to bear. But there is
much soothing power in sympathy,
and this is theirs in fullest measure.
A largo number of their neighbors
came all the long way down here with
them, and the procession was more
than doubled by the addition of num-
bers of their lola friends who joined it
as it wendell its way through the
streets to the cemetery. This gener-
GUS testimony of esteem and sympa-
thy which is so well deserved, was
deeply appreciated also by Mr.. Brit
ton and his family who request us to
tender their heartfelt thanks.

In one of his recent newspaper let
tiers ex-senator ingalls, pays the fol-
lowing tribute to ex-President Harri-
son:
Whatever contemporary opinion
of Harrison may be, the favorable YER
dict of history upon the man and his
administration can be confidently an
ticipated. OF distinguished ancestry
and respectable endowment, he at
tanned eminence as soldier, lawyer,
an orator, legislator and a states
man. His personal character never
rested under any imputation. He ac-
copied success with composure and
endured adversely without repining.
He was equal to every eXigency and
rose to the full height of every occa-
sion. He sustained the national dig
nity at home and abroad. He pos
sessed the rare faculty of graceful,
versatile and appropriate speech, and
his state papers are models of concise
and logical definition. His defects
were superficial and resulted from an
unfortunate temperament. The hinges
of his knee were not pregnant and his
conceptions of right were too exact to
permit the thrift that follows fawn-
ing. While his party allegiance was
strong he was not untractable nor
bigoted. and recognized merit in his
foes. The great majority of his acts
had no special party bearing and con-
cerned the nation at large.
