HE WANTS TO REBUILD.
Governor Lewelling Talks About His
losses IN II Dorado in Recent Fire.

i-tWeiliHS fabout Ills
Losses in III Dorado in Recent Fire.
There We're piled on the sidewalk
in front of Governor dwellings place
churns and other things saved from the
fire in FL Dorado which destroyed his
creamery at that place.
Governor Lewelling says his losses
We're considere BILE. but that ne wants
to rebuild the creamery at FL Dorado
If possible
He has a Swimming station at Au-
gusta and one at Severy, in Green
wood county. At the former place he
has a separator but at Severy the old
plan of setting the milk and waiting
for the cream 10 rise is in use. and be
fore the loss at FL Dorado Governor
Lewelling was figuring on putting in
a separator at Severy. but he does not
know now how he can carry out his
plans in that respect.
Ii seems that in order 10 make a
success of butter making IL is neces-
sary To collect milk at different sta
tons and ship the cream to one CEN
trail point, as no one place can furnish
sufficient milk, and Governor Level
ling says that FL Dorado is a good
point and that he must have a building
and machinery AT that place.
The plant at FL Dorado cost consid-
cradle money but Governor Lewelling
says that il was not a total loss as
some OF the best machinery was saved
from the fire. What he would like 10
co is To put in an entire new plant at
Eldorado. but he says he will have to
take little time TO pick UP ends and
get ready for an undertaking of that
kind

granted at all time. Councilman
Throckmorton thoubht that it was a
mighty good time to ask that police
man be detailed to regulate the herds
in the city in order that cows should
be prevented from running over side
walks and lawns.
Colonel Innis thought that parties
having herds should give bond to the
city covering any damage that might
be caused by cattle under their charge
but no action was taken on the sug-
gestion, the mayor deeming the ordin-
ance now in existence sufficient.
4 petition from Ira F. Elliott, a miller
at o. North Main street, asking per-
mission to put an inclined walk in front
of his mill over the sidewalk was read
Mr.. Throckmorton stated that mas
much as the sidewalk inspector gave
him permission. and he did the work
deeming the sidewalk inspector had
authority. that the prayer of the petit
ton be granted. He made motion TO
that effect, whereupon Mr.. Oliver
moved as a substitute that the whole
matter be referred to the councilmeri
from the Fourth ward with power To
act. DR.. Minick thought that himself
and MI Throckmorton could never
agree on the subject and the motion
and substitute were voted down. DR..
hIinick then indicated that he thought
himself and Mr.. Throckmorton could
agree in making suggestions changing
the plan of the inclined walk and the
matter was, therefore, referred to
them.
Mr. Throckmorton. as chairman of
the committee on parks, reported that
he had sold the grass in Linwood park
and had the money for it ready to
turn into the treasury.
Mr. Throckmorton also called at

Chisholm creek bridge a Thirteenth

ARE HARD ON sOoNERs.
Contests and Crops are Now What Interests
the People of Oklahoma.

David Carlton of Oklahoma was in
the city yesterday. He is one of the
first settlers In Oklahoma, and got a
claim near Oklahoma City on which he
still lives.
Mr. Carlton says the contests have
been a drawback in that county. The
sooners. he says, seemed TO have the
best OF il AT the start, but Of late the
secretary Of the interior and the courts
are pretty hord on the sooners and they
are not fsring SO well.

an excellent crop If they have sufficient
rain. He thinks old Oklahoma can not

been very fortunate in getting good
crops ever since the opening until this

THAT BaCc.LAUREArE SERMON.
Rev. Don S. Colt at the First NJ. L. Church
Addresses the High School Glass for 80.

If there be nothing Divine within US,
or without US,
The Pillared armament is rotteness
And Earth's base is built of stubble."
That was an inspiring audience which
greeted Rev. Don s. Colt at the First
NJ. f. church on Sunday morning.
crowding its choir and altar, its aisles
and gallery, with earnest intelligent
men and women, the occasion being the
baccarlarreate sermon for the gradual
ing class of of the city High school. the
young gentlemen and ladies composing
which were also present His theme
was the building of characters through
the cultivation alike of the objective
mind and the subjective soul. In illus
trating his mastery address, which
abounded in flights of eloquence. he
marshalled the achievements of genarals
and statesmen, of poets and painters.
In his intense earneStnesS the canvass
of the artist was made TO stand out in
all its shades Of light and color; the
voices and Tyre of the inspired poet
Vibrdetd upon the SenSibilitieS and the
din of death Of contending forces were
almost heard and felt by the listener.
The speaker not only embodied his
theme, but seemed carried beyond him
self BY the momentous problems which
that theme involved. 1t was as If he
felt commissioned by the author of the
swinging worlds that constitute the
universe, to deliver a Divine message
fraught with the verities of time and of
eternity, to those who in receiving. were
destined for noble deeds. to play con-
spicuous parts in the world which is
opening out before them. The vast
audience catching the earnest interest
of the speakers tragic manner and in
tense force were swept along in wrapt
silence, which, in some of his more elo-
quent periods and perorations, would
nave broken forth in loud acclaim at
any other time or place. No one of the
thousand or twelve hundred people who
heard him can doubt his deep sympathy
with, nor his marked sOlicitude for, the
youth or the world.
An acceptable fea ture of this occasion
was the solo of Mrs. Bracken. Artistic
in rendition and of delightfully."- clear
enunciatiOn, it was not a song of the
lips, but touching in its genuine spirit
of alteration, inspiring no less by its
sweet devotion than by its gentele pathos
Failing. as her song did, upon wrought
up mentalitieS, chords were loosened as
by the speel of a benediction. 1t waS a
song of hope from the heart, as full of
beauty and of visions as was the Ser
mon of eloquence and inspirat ton.

last night with all present except Har-
ris, who was unavoidabIy absent. As
it was the same meeting as the one
held the previous night there was no
call of the roll.
Mr.. Handley inquired what, if any,
thing, had been done with the instruc-
tons to the city clerk concerning the
procuring of information relative to
the working of the co-operat tive system
of telephones at Fort Scott and the
clerk read two letters from citizens of
that city supplying the information
All were to the effect that the system
was working like a charm; that there
are now $50 telephones in use and that
the Missouri and Kansas Telephone
company have only twelve phones or
therea bouts, in opera ton. The old
system charged 81 per month for
phones, while the new system charges
only 81 per month to stockholders, 50
per month TO merchants and s1.50 per
month to private residences.

Helena. Sept. 25.-The flag was for
mally raised over Fort Harrison at
noon to-day. Besides the two compa-
nies Of infantry under Captain Hooton
there were present several hundred
people. who had assembled from the
city to witness the ceremony. The
companies were drawn up on the pa
rade ground by the 140-foot steel flag
pole and the big crowd Of citizens was
grouped around 1t. The ceremony
would have been impressive had 1t not
been for the high wind. which blew a
fierce gale. drowning the voices of the
speakers and enveioping the parade
ground in dust.
Mayor Steele. Major Martin Magin.
mis- and Senator Thomas II. Carter
made eloquent addresses. and while
but few were able to hear them, the
crowd cheered wildly at every pause.
At the conclusion of Major Maginnls'
address. which was the chief one OF
the day. the nag was run up and the
booming Of cannon, borrowed from the
state for the occasion. went Off with a
bang. announcing to the world that

Tacoma. Wash. Sept. 25.-Great In
terest Is taken IN Tacoma In the resis-
nation OF the Northern Pacific receiv-
ers. The action Is regarded by the well
informed as the first OF a series OF
shrewd moves by which the receivers

Of two things will happen.

practically narrow the contest to dif-

that IL the designations are accepted.
