The Situation in Kansas.

Lake Charles Pross.
IT any people in this section til link
they are suffering from hard times they
lave but to look around little and they
will discover they know nothing oil
genuine sure enough hard times. A
gentleman writing from Wright, Ford
county, Kansas, to Dolby g. Mason, OF
this city, among other things says:
al caunot write you anything favor
able about getting many people from
here this fall to go to your section Of
country for the reason that they are too
DOOR to go-and great deal too poor
to stay. | don't think there has ever
been year of such trials for the people
of Kansas. No money, no crops. no
credit, no sale for stock, mercury "a to
100 degrees hot for the entire week.
At this bOur, 4 p. ~, it is 07 IN the
shade and no air in circulation, with
pasture drying and dying out. Not to
exceed five inches of rain have fallen
here in the past twelve months. | don't
know what the people will do for the
next year to come. A large majority
have no wheat to SOW this fall and the
prospects are they can not get it. AS
for myself and family we are going to
Lake Charles and take our chances of
getting living in that vicinity. | am
not afraid of getting worse location
than this. | have found three good
families that would have gone with us
this season to your country but cannot
sell except at terrible sacrifice, but
will sell as soon az possible and 60. |
think can get 100 from localities where
I have lived, provided | anu satietied
with the country.
"To illustrate the condition of our
country in regard to it's financial condi-
ton, will say that on the second of
this month land was to be sold at delin-
piece for sale but could not get bidder.
He tried several pieces aud finally closed
his books, put them in the safe, aud said
he would not try to sell any land for
taxes this year.
"Onr county court convened a few
days ago, and the judge said as there
was no money to pay jurors lie wOnld
adjourn. The Santa Fe road has not
paid their help in two months, and gov
eminent checks for pensions can not re-
alize dollar in cash at any bank In the
West. All financial business is at a
standstill. The Rock Island road has
closed up at Dodge City. The govern
ment will close the postoffice here to.
day. Consequently address me at
Dodge City, etc.
The gentleman writing the above is
Col. E. G. Chase, prominent merchant
and farmer of the section indicated.
What he says of Southwestern Kansas
is true of many sections of the West.
He will find a vastly different state of
affairs here.

A Fine Display.

There are few people in this city who have
not heard Of the elegant display OF edibles
at Joyce's cold storage market.
If the general public would happen to be
at the corner of Abercorn and Liberty
streets at any time during the week they
would be interested in witnessing the num-
bers of northern travellers who come from
the De Soto to see the model butcher shop
of Savannah. They all express their amaze
ment and astonishment at the perfection of
the place.
There is no establishment where a better
class of goods is kept-every body knows
that.
The first, always; the leader forever.
Joyce has a display Of fine delicate rice
field lamb, a selected stock of steers. spring
chickens, water crosses, venison and all the
delicacies of the season. II you miss going

A CHARMING BOOK
In Which Brief Glimpses of Colonial
Days Are Presented.

In Which Brief Glinpses of Colonial
Days Are Presented.
No more charming book has been pub
lished recently than Through Colonial
Doorways." Its author is Anne Holdings
worth Wharton of Philadelphia, and it is
published by the J. B. Lippincott Company
Of that city. IL lets one see something OF
the social life Of the best people in colonial
days. There is flavor Of that period of
the country's history throughout the entire
volume that one cannot fail to recognize
and appreciate.
The author, with rare discernment, has
presented those features OF social and do
nestle life that show most clearly what that
life was. At this distance, as seen Through
Colonial Doorweys,n it was very attractive.
At this time there is a deep interest in
almost everything that pertains to the revo-
lutionary period, and this volume, there
fore, is timely one.
An interesting thing in connection with
it, particularly to many In this city, is that
some Of the sketches are by the late Mrs. o.
NJ. Carter; and the volume is dedicated to
her memory. The dedication is in these
words: ITO the menory of Margaret N.
Carter, whose living and loving presence
was an inspiration during the preparation
of these chapters and whose sketches are
among those that adorn its pages, this little
volume is dedicated" Mrs. Carter and Miss
Wharton were devoted friends, and spent
many happy hours together in talking over
this work. The sketches by Mrs. Carter
that appear in it were prepared during
leisure hours at Richfield Springs last sum
mer. They are very tine and show that she
possessed high order of artistic talent. In
deed, she was complimented often by COM
Detent critics for her efforts in both art
and literature.
This little volume will be highly appre-
cisted by those In this city who enjoyed
Mrs. Carriers friendship. She DIV cit among
them only little while, but In that time
she won their regard and love by the no.
bility of her nature and her many womanly
Qualities

" had the happy privilege of supplying
most Of the suits and hats last week. Our
mutual taste and Judgment is reflected in
the "spick-spsn" newness of our male
friends to-day. We tried hard to serve
everybody last week; too many for us,
though, ana too short q week. However,
we have this week and other weeks ahead
to supply the balance OF mankind.
Our stock is unimpaired in its original
beauty and stylishuess, and constant addi-
tons keep it up TO the mark. Wewould par
ticuiarly remind buyers OF clothing that we
occupy q position in our line that allows us
to do better for them than any other house
IN SGudnndh can possibly do. By larger
purchases and larger sales we can sell closer
than any one else can, and it has always
been our custom to share our many ad-
vantages with the public.
We accord courteous aud prompt Rtuen-
ton to all, regardless of how much or how
little they may want, our only desire being
to please. Notice that at the beginning of
the season, right nOlU, we innovate by al
lowing discount Of 10 per cent on all cash
sales Of clothing, which is really a bonus on
prices already lower than elsewhere. We
want you to compare our hiqh quality and
t0lU prices, and you will find that we are
the only clothing leaders.
