NORMAL NOTES.

Fifty one enrolled. Prof. Rose has
been meeting the classes in philosophy
and arithmetic in the afternoon, a part
of the time, during the past week.
Miss Artie Hobbs has been employed
to teach the Collyer for term of nine
months. H. Swiggett has the school
in district 81, for the third term in
succession-a good recommendation.
Query: A. and B. stand one mile
apart. If A. stands due east of B. and
B. due west of A. and A. looks due west
and B. looks due east, will they look
toward each other?
Miss Geneva Stephens and Grace
Hager were visitors the latter part OF
last week.
Rev. Winterburn and daughter spent
an hour as visitors last Monday.
David McCollum was shaking hands
with old acquaintance in the Institute
Thursday. He expects to enroll next
week.
A, E. McCollum was taking notes for
the Omnicrat yesterday.
Miss Mary Shepherd has contracted
to teach the young idea in the Cortright
neighborhood.
Company F, consisting of II. Harlan,
had the best per cent. of attendance last
Thursday noon. Company A, Miss
Hobbs captain, ranked first in the grand
total of attendance on the same date.
The leading educational journals have
representative agents who will be glad
to take subscriptions for their respective
periodicals.
Five of the young men attending the
institute contemplate. going to the State
Agricultural college in September.
The following persons have enrolled
since our last issue: S. L. Garland. Ran
som; H. Harlan, Wa-Keeney; Bertha
Holmes, Wa-Keeney.
The citizens of Wa-Keeney do but lit
tie visiting at the institute. Are teach
ers to take this as measure of the in-
terest which the people of the city have
in this annual gathering at the county
seat?
Problem: Five men carry timber 80
! feet in length, of uniform size and densi-
ty; four of the men lift with a hand
spike, and one man is at the end; how
far from the other end must the hand
spike be placed so that the several men
shall lift an equal weight?

A Solemn Warning Take.

A horrible snake story comes from
Simpson, station on the Beloft branch
of the Union Pacific road. Four resi-
dents had bought a key of beer and
taken it to nice shady grove. After it
had been tapped and few glasses passed
around all four participants became sud-
denly i'll. A deadly nausea affected
them and for several hours they could
not return to the keg. Finally the sick
ness passed away and the four deter
mined men began their ceremonies again
and drank heavily. Their illness soon
returned. Other parties tasted the beer
and every one was affected in the same
manner in proportion to the amount
they drank. Finally the liquor was all
drained off and an investigation under
taken. In the bottom of the keg were
found the decayed remains of a rattle
snake The skeleton and six rattles
were still there but the flesh and skin
had been soaked away and became
united with the beer.-Wellington Mail.
Since writing the above we have firm
ly resolved that we will never drink beer
again-out of keg.

Connmunicated.

In my young days / have attended
theatres and, before closing, they gen.
orally presented a farce i. e. something
comical or laughable. Well there has
been occurrences of late that ! class as
Farces. will define.
Towards the latter part of the chap
lain's prayer in opening an alliance
meeting the following sentence appears:
"May all that we do he for the better
ment of humanity and to the honor
and glory of Thy lgreat Name" Now
how little some of the leaders think of
the above sentence. When they were
provoking the people to frenzy last
spring-when they were trying to del
uge the state with the blood of its citi-
zens-''to the honor and glory of Thy
great Name" An ignorant Farce!
We have history, traditional and
written, from the earliest period of
Jewish history to the present, of the
crime and misery brought on people by
ignorant, false and INSCRIPTIONS leaders.
Now, some of the mottos of the grand
order are Fraternity, Unity etc. What
fault can be found with these mottos?
Did not the "Molly MaGuires" of Penn
You know fraternity means to help the
order if it were to sink you to the knees
in blood. Unity means that should any
man stand in your way crush him, no
matter how contemplate the means
employed.
''Vengeance is Mine" said Jehovah
but the president of the Trego County
alliance has over-ruled the Great l Am
and says that vengeance shall be his.
The said president of the Trego Coun-
ty alliance is director of school district
No. 3S. He is now on his third term and
each time was elected, partly, by my
vote. l also helped, during the past
seven years, to make him county Off
GER, but in each of the latter cases my
vote was thrown away. This was done
to the detriment of my party and OF
my own personal interest. You may
ask why did so? answer that l am
not an exception in being duped.
l had the wife of said county president
appointed treasurer of said district last
spring and several persons told me that
it would not be beneficial to have two
of the same family in Office and upon re-
consideration, l became of that opinion
myself and nominated different person
at the annual meeting. This seemed tC
be displeasing to the director and he
said Il will crush that invalid"
He had his cattle, about 80 in mum
Der, drove directly east of me to devoul
the little pasture that has always beer
conceded to be mine, but we presume il
was all "done to the honor and glory
ETC." A diabolical Farce!
Would it not be beneficial, Mr.. Editor
if you would publish the Golden Rule
once or twice in your paper.
If a leader does not recognize the
law of falrnesss and justice to his fellow
man how can the followers be expected
to know what was never taught them
''Do unto others as you would they
should do to you"

Trottlng and Running Races

Black Douglass, Harry Lambert, Forest
King, Fred D. and others. This assures
a good time and good races.
The races will be three minute race,

The alarm of ''fire" is always start
ling and particularly so since our terri
BILE experience last spring. There is
something about it that strikes terror to
the heart and causes the cheek of the
bravest to pale. The most ominous
sound that our citizens can hear is the
changing of our fire bell. 1t has sounded
so often when it meant ruin and destruc-
ton that we have come to associate dire
disaster with the sound. It has been
the signal for everybody to throw aside
everything and. rushing to the scene.
render all the assistance in their power
wherever needed. Our citizens have al
ways responded nobly and, several times,
a confagration has been averted bv
their alacrity-and we might say hero
ism. All this is only preliminary to a
suggestion that we wish to make and we
mention it in kindness to all concerned.
Let us have no more false alarms of
fire" Twice within the past month
have our citizens been called out and
made the victim of joke. 1t may have
been extremely amusing to some, but
we assure you that the great majority
do not appreciate amusement of this ma
ture. They may not always respond
even when the alarm is given in good
faith and when their services are badly
needed.

We have often thought that we
would like to meet the owner of the Q.
P. railroad-not that we had any special
business with him except perhaps to
suggest that it would be to his interest
to subscribe for the WoRLD-but just
because we wanted to meet him. Well,
we met him the other evening on the
east bound train, and we don't care to
meet any more railroad magnates. He
was little bit of fellow, with a fierce
black mustache-and for the life of us
we couldn't help thinking of bantam
rooster we once owned-he had such an
independent, lofty air about him. Oh,
you could tell in minute that he owned
the whole business; there was no mis-
taking that fact. He came into the car
where we were and with look that
seemed to say and that very plainly, 81

he happened to be little drowsy and
couldn't concentrate his mind all at once

good lungs" he snapped out at poor
woman who was doing her very best to
quiet the child and who came very nearly
crying herself at the brutality displayed
by the fellow who owned the road and
wanted everybody to know it. A little
further on he talked very loud and looked
very threateningly at an inofensive ap-
pearing man and finally passed out OF
the car banging the door as though he
would sooner break it than not. He had
a silver band OH his cap upon which was

ter. He owned that train. We were so
scared that we didn't dare introduce
ourself and so cannot give his name.
But we may meet again. We hope not.
We would prefer to ride on a freight

"A knowledge of the game law, now
in force, might be interesting reading
for some and we therefore quote from
the session laws of 1898: Section L.
provides that sit shall be unlawful for
any person or persons, at any time, to
catch, kill, shoot, trap or ensnare any
partridge, prairie chicken, grouse, quail,
pheasant, oriole, meadow lark, red bird,
hooking bird and blue bird: Provided
that no provisions of this act shall apply
or interfere with persons who may have
in their possession or raise for sale any
birds as pets. or may at any time catch,
kill or entrap any of the birds mention
ed in this section on their own premises
controlled by such persons for their own
USE" "The provisions of this act shall
not appl y to any person who shall catch
or kill any wild bird or birds for
the sole purpose of preserving them
as specimens for scientific purposes. "
1t will be seen that the only shooting
that may be legally done in Kansas, of
the above mentioned birds, is by per-
sons on their own premises, controlled
by such persons, for their own use and
benefit and they cannot delegate this
personal privilege to any of their friends.
In brief, those who do not own and oc-
cupy premises where game abounds can
not hunt. Hany of the above enumerated
birds should even attack you on the
public highway and threaten you with
great bodily injury you could not even
protect yourself under that statute.
Seriously, we all believe in wise game
law, but this is the most absurd of
which we have any knowledge; but it is
the law nevertheless
