House Friday Night.
The opera house was we'll filled Fri
day night to witness the graduation of
Miss Bessie Murphy, Miss Nettie Pat
ton, Miss Jessie Dickey and Mr. Fred
Barnett, composing the class of 90.
The stage was tastefully arranged,
above which was displayed the class
motto: "Esse, Guam Viderin TO be,
rather than to SEEM.
The exercises were opened by instru-
mental music by the accomplished
pianist, Miss Stella Swarts, which was
followed by prayer by Rev. Willis. Mr..
Fred. Barnett then delivered the sslu-
tatory entitled, politicians and Politi-
clans, which was a very good compost
ton and we'll delivered. He was follow
ed by the instrumental duet, "Fanfare
des Dragons" by Misses Swarts and
Liston.
Miss Patton gave her views on the

val then sang the beautiful duet, "Ma-
define" that was as we'll received as it

1t was an able symposium and deliver
ed in master manner The valedictory

the class was made by Rev. D. H. Plat.
G. E. Swarts, president of the board Of
education, presented the diplomas and
the exercises closed by the benediction
being pronounced by Rev. Willis.
Commencement is a momentus oc-
cssion to the young man or woman
graduate. It is the boundary between
theory and practice, the passing of the
day dreams and ambitions of youth
and the commencing of the journey to-
ward the goal Of their usefulness. It
is the initial step that make them men
and women. Their resolution, charac-
/ ter and ability shape their destiny in
in the years to come. This response
bility is a heavy one for young should
ers to bear, but it is inevitale, the law
of nature. The world is before them
and it rests with them alone whether
in the school Of life just entered, they
meet with victory or defeat.

Dairying Fast Becoming Prominent In
dustry in Kansas.
Dairying is fast becoming a promi-
ment industry in central Kansas. Far
mers are finding out that supplying
milk to the creameries is a sure in
come that drought and crop failures
cannot materially affect. One of the
important things is to utilize every
thing that grows on the farm. In or
binary years vast quantities of rough
feed goes to waste land as much more
could be raised with small expense)
that could be turned into money by
keeping COWS and becoming creamery
patrons. To do this successfully it is
necessary to have COWS with unusual
milk-producing qualities. It is a loss
of time and feed to bother with an in
different or poor mixer. Keep good
COWS, give them close attention and
you can figure on a steady and profit
able income the year around.

Second Lieutenant Smith of the
Second cavalry, United States army,
spent a few hours in Eddy, en- route to
San Antonio, Tex. says The Pecos
Valley Argus. The officer informed
The Argus that he left Fort Wingate to
make the ride of 1000 miles to test the
endurance of native horse stock. The
route was to be covered in 30 days. 1t
was the 10Th day and the distance trav-
ersed was 466 miles. The rider stated
that the horse was as fresh as when be
started, aud that none of the big cav
airy stock OF the east could have made
the journey.
One day he travelled 20 miles in l;
hours, resting an hour at noon, and
was ready for the road next morning
As the trip was made around by For
Stanton, and down the Penasco, it j.
evident that the hardest part Of tn,
journey was over when Eddy wai
reached and half the allotted time re
manned. The lieutenant expected {,

UNEXPECTED PLUNGE.
4 Youne.f ady Doused in She Lake at Pot
 ash Sulphur.


 Miss Wella ,Ieter, oi Pine Bluff who is now sojourninga at Potash sulphur, had rather a thilling experience while boat-riding on the lake Wednesday evening. The young lady and ex- Mayor D. c. Bell, of Pine Bluff, had enjoyed a boat ride on the lake and had returned to the boat house. When Miss .Ieter started to stepfrom the batteau 1t moved and threw her into the water. She went under, but the gallant ex-Mayor of tine Pine City plunged into the water and rescued his companion in iiffy, before she had hardly strangled.
 Miss Jeter did not enjoy the plunge half as much as the other guests of the hotel who witnessed the incident from the bank of the lake, but she took her misfortune good naturedly.
 The laugh was on Mr. Bell who la- mented their i'll luck, as he claimed to have only the one suit of clothing along with him, but he managed to find a change of apparel on going to hls room. They promise to anchor the boat safely to the boat house the next time before attempting to get out of it.-Hot Springs Daily News.

In 1880 he was arrested by the Government for forging and uttering $204, GOO in United States bonds. He was sentenced to thirty years imprisonment, but he sur rendered all his plates and appar- atus, and gave valuable information to the Treasury about similar swim dlers. On this account his sentence was suspended. Later he served five years in prison for forging Nor ris S Essex railroad bonds.
