From Paolai Fine rains have en-
abled the farmers to SOW a great deal OF
wheat, much of which is up nicely, while
much more will yet be sown. Fall pas

Salina Herald: A drive in the coun-

county farmers have not been idle dur
ing the past month, The wheat in many
fields is already up and growing. The
soil is in excellent condition.
Kincaid Dispatch: Hull Laughlin has
sixty-six head of the finest and latest
beef cattle in this part of the county,
which he is crowding on shelled corn for

From Emporia; Dispositions are be-

$4,000 damages. No settlement hay

nave been filed, in which the Missouri,
Kansas, and Texas railway, and about
100 others, are defe ndants. The entire
matter has resulted in suits and counter
suits so innumerable that it now looks
as if what money may be in the hands
IF the receiver will be swallowed up in
litigation, and the people in this vicinity
never be reimbursed for their losses.
EmPoria Republican,: "Robertha,"
the celebrated Hereford calf owned by
G. s. Gross, president of the First Ma
tional bank Of this city, was brought
here from Topeka, in charge of H. L.
Leibfried. This calf was purchased by
Mr.. Cross of the Maxim Brothers Of
Florence, Kansas, and is eleven months
old and weighs nine hundred pounds. Il
took the second premium at the worlds
fair, and many good judges thought it
entitled to the first. 1t took the first
premium at the interstate fair at Kan,
sas City, Missouri, and the first premium
at the Kansas State fair at Topeka. It
is perfect beauty and is undoubtedly
one of the most valuable heifers in tho
United States. 1t had quarters at the
stables of Worster & White, where it
attracted many visitors. Mr.. Cross sent
it to his Sunny Slope" farm.

ONE OF the most distinct impress
sions many will bring back from their
travels is the discomfort they had to
endure from the habit some people
have Of forcing a car window open
and admitting a strong draft with
the inevitable accompaniment of
dust and cinders. The liking some
travellers have for an open car win
dow amounts almost to lunacy and
the pugnacity with which they will
assert their supposed rights is often
little less than brutal. The real in
convenience Of an open car window
is not felt by the person sitting be-
side it, but by those in the seat be.
hind. They have to endure the draft
and the smoke and cinders as best
they can, while the one who opens
the window gets all the benefit in
the way of fresh air and an unob-
structed view Of the passing land
scape The only way to remedy the
matter probably is for the railroads
to provide special cars for those who
want to breathe the air of heaven
unobstructed only by dirt and Gin
ders. Smoking cars are provided,
and why should there not be cars set
apart and labeled "for open-window
flends?"

A POLICE inspector says that the

Inasmuch as the robbers contrived to
make off with all the money they

IT is as gratifying as 1t is remark
able to note that train robbers inva-
rlably choose for their attacks trains
that have on board very little express
matter. The train just ahead or
just behind the one that Is robbed
carries the wealth of Ormus and OF
Ind, but the obtuse bandits always
grunt and sweat over safes contain
ing nothing but mortgages, protested
drafts, magazine poetry, and other
non-negotiable paper 1t must be
disgusting for q train robber who
has lain out In swamp all night, at
the risk Of catching his death Of
cold, to open a package marked
"value $4,000" and find that it COLI
talns hoosler dialect poem or an
address to be delivered at one of the
worlds congresses. Such, however,
is the invarable luck of the train
understanding to the express
company officials, who, of course, al
ways tell the exact truth-and it Is
remarkable that the bandits do not
forsake so unremunerative an oCcu-
patton and go towork on the railroad.

The statistics of the number of
children in Sunday schools in the
various countries of the world, re-
ported to the International Sunday
School Convention recently in session
in St. Louis, will not be found graft
flying to some neighborhoods. Massa-
chusetts, for instance, will DO sur
prised at the comparatively poor
showing it made. There are 51l, 99l
children Of school age in that State,
but 274,39S Of them, or 55.55 per
cent, do not attend evangelical Sun
day schools. So considerably more
than half Of the children Of Massa-
chusetts do not come under the influ-
ence of the evangelical churches, An
effort will be made to explain this on
the ground of the large percentage OF
the foreign born and Of those born OF
foreign parentage in the population
Of the State. This element of the
population amounts to 57.33 In Mas
sachusetts, but in Rhode Island it is
60.19 per cent. In the latter State,
however, the percentage OF school age
children not in evangelical Sunday
schools is 4l.32, or 1423 per cent.
less than in Massachusetts. The ten
dency of the population to large
cities where children leave Sunday
school at an earlier age than in the
country and the slackening up of eff
forts on tile part of the churches are
probably the real reasons for. the de-
crease in Massachusetts,.
