A party of FIVE B,..' ~ county boys,
Clay Lucas. Link Lang ri, Harry
Dukes and Jonce and Hugh Byers,
returned from a prospecting tour
down in the Strip, last Saturday.
They drove up from St. John Satur-
day afternoon against the snow storm,
and were glad to reach the familiar
preceiects of Great Bend. The boys
say they had a jolly trip, barring the
weather, and saw lots of good country
and lots of bad country At End
they found a lively city with all the
frontier attachments-36 saloons,
seven dance houses, and other things
to match, with lots of building going
on and much activity in all lines of
business

New Possibilities of Farm Life.

Wherever irrigation prevails, popula-
ton is dense. We may confidently
predict l:r Ger population to the square
mile in the reclaimed areas of most of
the Western States than exist to-day in
Massachusetts,. In the nature of the
case this must be true. Most of the
Valleys are comparatively narrow and
the cultivable land is sharply limited
by mountain ranges. Furthermore.
land under the ditch is valuable and
must be put to the most profitable uses.
The larger the capacity Of an acre to
produce the smaller the average farm
unit will be. Under these circum-
stances, mans ingenuity and energy
will be constantly directed to evolving
conditions of rural life that, while sur
rendering none of its peculiar bless
ings, shall approach most nearly TO the
realization Of the best features of town
life. A daring writer has predicted
that electricity, next to irrigation, will
be the largest factor in revolutiOnizing
the life of the farm. He reasons that
with the dense population and high
average prosperity possible on irrigated
lands, and the abundant and accessible
water power usually existing in con-
nection with canals, electricity will be
used to light and warm the farmers
home, to propel his agricultural imple-
ments and move his crops over smooth
roads to the market or railroad station.
Certainly the possibilities for the i'm
provement of social conditions in such
communities are infinite. One of the
advantages already realized is the
general cultivation of trees, hedges
and flowers in the streets and yards.
Nowhere else are such conditions
enjoyed as may already be seen in the
more advanced communities of arid
America. From We. Smythe's article
on 1.-THE Irrigation Idea,'' in October
Review of Reviews.

A Much Delayed Wedding.

Miss Florence E. Howell, of Decatur,
and George Vandyke. of Louisville,
married at midnight, had an eventful
experience. Twice had the wedding day
been fixed, but it was postponed. The
third time they came near missing it
again. George expected his wedding
suit from Louisville by express. 1t did
not come, although the couple waited
until the last train was in before start
ing on their journey in the mud, five
miles distant to the home of the bride,
where the wedding guests had assem-
bled to witness the marriage. At Z
o'clock Vandyke procured his license,
and as he was coming out of the Office
he fell headlong twelve feet into the
cellar of the new court house. Later he
started with the bride and four friends
for the Howell place, when the single
tree broke, the horses kicked themselves
loose and ran away, leaving the party in
the mud. Another vehicle was secured
and the journey resumed. The party
arrived at II o'clock to find some of the
guests getting ready to go home. The
wedding feast was cold, but the wedding
took place at midnight.-Decatur Cor,

A Steel Chimney.

In order to economic space and
weight, steel is being used for the con-
struction, at the Chicago exhibition, of
a chimney which, when completed, will
be $50 feet high The steel varies in
thickness from 5-32 inch at top to
q inch at the bottom. The lower part
of the chimney is lined with fire brick
8 inches deep, formed to fit the shell
compactly all round Above this hollow
tile is used.
The weight of Il brick chimney of this
size would be almost 700 tons, while in
steel it will weigh, including the Innings,
a little less than $50 tons. The outside
diameter Of the chimney is 8 feet )
inches, whereas had it been constructed
of brick it would be 16 feet inches, a
great saving of space being thus effected
