After accomplishing the business OF
their visit, the Coterie, with a few
other Moran friends, went to the river
side grove and ate a picnic supper,
then drove home by moonlight. They
all pronounced the excursion a most
pleasant one.
A warrant was issued last Thurs
day for the arrest of John f.. Ball, OF
Geneva township, on the charge OF
having assaulted his daughter, the
complaint being made by his wife
and daughter. Constable Strickland
went up to serve the warrant but
found that Ball had gone to Neosho
Falls. Following him to that place
he learned he had bought ticket for
Burlington. At Burlington he lost
track of his man and after two or
three days search was obliged to re-
turn without HIM. On Tuesday Mr..
Ball quietly applied to Sheriff Hobart
for admission tn the Jail. The pre-
liminary examination was set for
%.
Miss Richards and Miss WEIGH have
always been most generous in con-
tributing to the success of lola enter
and if all the members of
all the church and other organizations
which have profitted by their willing
and gratuitOus service attend the re-
cital to-night-as they should've
hall will be crowded. We know that
i'm lola is proud of tour
girls" and wishes them well, and the
REGISTER sincerely hopes that this
pride and these well wishes will be
testified by the attend
ance at the Opera House this evening.
Mrs. ID. b. ID. Shelter has had a
very happy visit this week from her
son, George, of Oklahoma, her grand
father, Mr.. Geo. 4. Whip, and her
sister, Miss Cora Whip, of Jefferson,
Md, and from her nephew, Prof. c.
f. Whip, of Baltimore. George is re-
turning from an extended trip TO Chi
cagO and to the old home in Mary
land, and will probably continue his
Journey to Oklahoma tomorrow. The
other visitors may stay two or three
weeks.
We had intended staying at the
Fair two weeks or more, but after get
ting to Chicago we found that it would
be necessary to return there i'm Sep
with the Kansas Editorial
and so cut this visit short,
last Tuesday. 1t is certain
ly the biggest show on earth, alto
gether too big to think of writing up i'm
a single letter or in dozen letters. We
wish every reader of the REGISTER
might 1t.

partment headquarters, G. A. II. an

lola small boys are obliged to con-
tent themselves with seeing the pic
lures on circus posters this year, as
the circuses themselves all'g around
US. 1t is pathetic sight to see the
groups of young America gathered
around q bill board as soon as new
posters 60 up, and devouring with
hungry eyes the impossible wonders
portrayed thereon
The intimate friends of the family
Of r. w. Duffy, to the number of

We regret to learn, through our AL
len Center correspondent, of the death
Of J. w. Wolfe, which resulted last
Friday from typhoid fever. Although
opposed to us in politics he
has long been one of the REGISTERS
firmest friends, and we feel his death
as q personal loss. He was a kind
hearted man and a good citizen.
