Obituary.

Mrs. Elizabeth Mitchell was born
in Miami county, Ohio, August 23rd,
1910, and died at the home of her son
i'm lola, Kans., July 23rd, 1894, aged
So years and II months. When quite
young she united with the Christian
church and in 1855 removing to New
Carlisle. Ohio, she became member
of the Presbyterian church at that
place. She was a consistent christian
and until the past five or six years
was regular attendant at services.
She was married to James Mitchell
April 23rd 1886, who with one daugh-
ter has passed on before, ready to well
come the dear one home. She leaves
one son Mr.. A. N Mitchell and one
daughter, Mrs. E. III. Funston, of Car
lyle and grand children to mourn her
loss, which they realize is her gain,
since her age had left her very weary.
The funeral services were held at 4
O'Clock on Tuesday, Rev. Squier, as
sisted by Rev. Wilson, of Carlyle,
officiating. A large number of friends
were in attendance to testify their re-
gard for the dead and their sympathy
for the living.

A NEW RULE.

After January /, 1895, the REGISTER
will not be sent to any subscriber who
is more than two years in arrears.
Maybe next year we will not send
it on credit longer than one year. And
some time we may work up to the
cash-in-advance system. But next
January we shall surely cut off all
those who are in debt to us for more
than two years, for our experience has
taught us that one who cannot pay us
$500 at the end of two years is not
likely to be able to pay $3.50 at the
end of three years. We make this an
nouncement thus early so that all
whom it may concern may have plen-
ty of time to govern themselves ac-
cordingly. 1t looks now as if this
were going to be prosperous year for
Allen County, and it would please us
mighty well if every subscriber on our
lists would. between now and next
January, pay up all his arrearage and
a year in advance. We think they
would be pleased too for they would
find it so much easier to pay $50 once
a year than to pay $50 every five
wears

both Sabbaths that many were unable
to hear Rev. CANDLES famous dis
courses, and, upon solicitation, he has
promised to give them over again in
the near future, with the express I'M
Outstanding that the boys, the future
voters of our precinct, who 20 gallant
ly gave up their seats to ladies and
older persons and remained standing,
or stayed out of doors, shall be ac-
corded front seats next time. Come
on, young men. This Sabbath day"
question is one of the questions of the
day, upon which you want to get
started right, and you want just such
foundation as Rev. Gamble will lay
for you to begin on. Remember
though. that his Reverence has no
subject. He started out Is years ago
to be an Adventist provided, he
could prove by the Bible, that they
were keeping the right day. Having
failed to prove this point, he now
wishes to show his fellow men not
only how completely he failed to be
able to prove his own points but how,
through the blessing of God, he was
brought to know, for himself, and be
able to demonstrate TO others the Sab
bath of the "Lord Jesus Christ" A
vote was taken at Sunday school last
Sabbath to learn if the young people
really desired to have the said dis
courses over again, and to say it was
unanimous is putting it mildly. The
time will be announced through the
REGISTER. OMEGA.

CURBSTONE CRAYONS.

Milton HdWLey, La Hdrpe: Things
are looking much better than they did
few weeks ago. Oats are turning
out so to 100 per cent better than PEG.
pie thought they would in the spring.
And we have the best prospect for
corn that we have had for years.
1. Port, lola: April and /
planted about % acres of corn with
seed of an early variety which i
bought last fall at the lola Fair. 1t
is the best field of corn l have raised
in Kansas. 1t is fully. ripe now, and
the stalks have from one to four large
ears.
W. C.. Jones: No, l don't think
Willard will withdraw. And don't
know but what Moore will get more
votes if he doesn't. Moore will be
second III the race, if not first. And,
say: The thing for you fellows to dc
is to pull off Morrill, and endorse
Overmyer.
Abe Null, Rock Creek: / don't be-
lieve any corn that was properly tend
ed, suffered from the drouth. / piow-
ed my corn with double shovel when
it was three feet higher than my head.
did it to keep the surface broken up
and loose so the ground wouldn't
crack. 1t was hot work, but it paid.
My corn never found out there was a
drOuth.
j. l.. Perry, Humboldt: Flax is
turning out remarkably well. The
poorest field 1 have heard of made 8
bushels to the acre, while Cbas. Roe
del, of Allen Center, got Isl bushels
Crops of IL to 16 bushels are common.
There is about third less broom corn
in the countythis yearthan last, but it
. looking well. Corn is 80 per cent bet
ter this year than it was this time
last year and we will have a good crop
without any more rain. l have been
farming in Kansas ten years now, and
L guess they have been as tough tell
years as the State has ever had. But
j have managed somehow to make a
living and little extra each year.
e. Wisner, Carlyle: The Pop
ulist idea of trying to make political
issue out of the old l.. l.. and G. bonds
is ridiculous. The vote for the bonds
was practically unanimous, and the
sentiment in favor of selling the stock
Tor Sl.OO was entirely unanimous. The
idea never entered aDybody's head at
that time that there was any politics
in it. We all wanted railroad and
the only way to get it was. or seemed
TO be,to pay for it. And am free to
say that 1 don't think we paid too
much for it. believe that during the
20 years the road has been running it
has been worth more to the county
each year. than it cost. Before that
time we had no market for anything
We had to sell and we had to pay ire
mendous prices for everything we
bought on account of the heavy freight
charges. We couldn't sell any hay or
butter or eggs or poultry or vegetables
of any kind, and we had to pay $500
tOS7 90 hundred for flour, s.. LOO to 81 90
a barrel for salt and everything else
in proportion. No political party is
responsible for the railroad bonds.
but ifany party were it would not need
TO make any apologies.
