rHr TRAFFIC OF BAxrER.


CITY, Fort Scott and Memphis rail-
road, we are enabled 10 present the
readers of the News with the actual
amount of products shipped from this
city for the past three years. 1t
should he understood that these arc
car load lots exclusive of company
freight and smaller shipments.
To those who are interested in the
growth aud prosperity of Baxter
Springs and surrounding country
these figures will prove interesting
and satisfactory. While the word has
gone abroad that Kansas property is
valuelrss and Kansas people are on the
verge of starvation, and that woe and
misery are the only products Of our
soil, the statistics at the Memphis rail
road show that the shipments from
our little town rose from 1924 car
loads in 1890 to 1850 car loads in 1892.
Can il be possible that u community
that has 1850 car loads OF surplus
products is on the road TO the poor
house? With exports nearly doubled
in two years, with hogs at seven cents
per pound, with populists IN charge of
the capitol and county seat, and iced
ing a Jail full Of joint keepers at 40
cents a head, does anyone believe that
we are still on the verge of ruin!
The figures given by Mr.. Knight do
not include near all the surplus OF this
station. Hundreds of cattle, and a
large amount of hay, grain and other
products were taken to the mining
district east of us BY the producers
without the all of the railroads. We
are producing community and we
have the soil and climate 10 supply
ten times the number of our own In
habitants.
There are other towns in this cOun-
ty which have Il larger traffic than
Baxter in coal and mineral, but all our
products come from the top of the
ground and through the industry and
economy of our agricultural masses
who have never been elevated, so to
speak, by the benign influence of can.
tankerons political demagogueism
working on disordered livers.
Our farmers have let the wave of
reform sweep by while they tended
their crops, fed their stock, bought
more land and sold their hogs at seven
cents a pound. The result shows that
they are either better of than two
years ago or the figures OF the Mem.
phis railroad are a blankety blank lie.
There is not a merchant in Baxter who
will not testify that his business has
nearly doubled in the past two years.
There is scarcely u farmer in this COM
muuity who is not better off today
than two wears ago, and there is not a
property owner in and around Baxter
Springs but that feels elatcd ut the
prospects tor the coming wear. Fol-
lowing are the shipments tor three
vears: Car load lOts shipped from
Baxter Springs in 1890, 1,024; car load
lots shipped from Baxter Springs in
1891, 1898; car load lots shipped from
Baxter Springs in 1892, 1850. Increase
over 1891, sol cars; increase over 1890,
S26 cars.
Mr.. Knight was unable to give the
receipts of freight for the past year,
hut says they were largely in excess OF
previous years. .
Now ii the Memphis Route will
build the spur TO our grand water
power we can largely increase the
traffic of Baxter Springs in another
year.

A NEW DOG STORY.



All St Petersburg has gone Wild over some.
thing new. says the New York Recorder, and
that IA nothing else than dog which goes oil
into hypnotic frances.
This remarkable animal belongs TO NJ. Do
roy, WHO was awarded goli medal by the
Paris Academy OF Sciences for his original
Investigations aud discoveries In the science
~ hypnotlsm Us applied 10 animals and Its
effects Upon them.
Several tests have been made of The animal
In the presence OF no less person than DIR.
Afanasey o. the war department.
One ~ the tests consisting In placing sew
cril articles, a. q pencil, cignr-cas-. handkcr'
chief, cuiI-bution, etc, bn the floor. Then
the dog, having been thrown Into hypnotic
trance, NJ. Duroy requested one oi the aii-
dlencc, which consisted also OF several dther
physicians OF rcnown and some newspaper
men, TO think about something and what the
dog was to to with It, then to write It out on n
piece Of paper and show It to the rest OF the
audience, excepting, Of course, himself.
This was done, aud the dog having been
brought In, what was the nstOaishmcnt OF the
whole asscmblagc To sec the animal go up to
the clgar.easc, pick II up aud bring II TO the
one WHO had bcci Indicated IN the wish.
Another test consisted In laying several
cubes with figure, on them In a certain order
IN a closed box. ~ the same time several
pieces Of paper were put upon the door, bear
ing like numbers on each. The dog wa' then
called In and required to place the pieces OF
paper In the same order as the cubes were
l laid In the closed anil sealed box This he
/ did, TO the astoui,hment OF all assembled
| Tho stangcness Of the Whole procedure Is
increased when II il remembered that NJ Du'
/ roy kn0Es no more about what i belng done
or wished than does the dog anl f., there
/ fore, cnilroly unable in any way to prompt
