ED. WORLD: Will you allow me to
drop into line again after so long an abb
sence? The irrigation heptomania has
not struck in on all of us here as it evil
IDENTIFY has on our Forestry Commits
sioner, Ed. Wheeler. We would sug-
gest to our neighbor to side tract the
forestry, tighten your brethren. You
can't run double decker no how. We
confess being so dense that we had not
perceived before that it was incumbent
upon a commissioner to irrigate every
bodies boomlet among others, most con-
spicuous, his own all over the state. O..
what fash light we do have any way in
this western hemisphere. We should
be proud and we are. We should be
thankful that things are no worse and
we are, but this does not hinder us from
looking and hoping for something better
just the same.
A subject which we are pleased to
speak about in this letter is the very in
teresting series of meetings being held
here and conducted by Rev. Hobbs of
the Baptist church in Wa-Keeney. Tt
is universally remarked that Rev. Hobbs
has, in the last year made rapid strides
of improvement in his method and man
ner of handling his subject. We now
predict that ere long he will align with
the best of them. We wish to notice
these meetings further from the fact
that all the protesting christian people
in the neighborhood took thorough in
terest and earnest part in them. It is
but just tribute to say of each one
that they did their whole duty and did
it well. We may be justly pardoned for
venturing the opinion, that if all pro-
fesSed christians throuphOl1t the country
would work together as they did in this
meeting In common unison for the COM
mon good of all, the christian people
would soon be enabled to dispelthe dark
cloud of doubt and mysticism, which
seems SO often to hang over them and
drive it away as fog disappears before
blast OF wind letting in the purer sun
light of a brighter and holier day. Our
religion (what we have) would say to all
the good people come up.

40. U. w. Meeting in wa-Keeney

A. o. U. w. Meeting in Wa-Keeney.
Ed. H Wheeler, Grand Master Work
man, A. O. U. W., OF Kansas, and Ex-
Lieut.. Governor Riddle, Supervisor of
this district, addressed a fair sized aud
fence at the court house, on the evening
of January 10th. on the aims and OBJ
jects of the order.
Those present were well entertained
and were much pleased at the manner
in which subjects pertaining to the or
der were discussed.
There are at this time 332 lodges in
Kansas, with membership of $4,000,
and this work has been accomplished
mainly in the past eight years. In the
United States there is a membership of
335, OOO
The average assessment per year for
$4,000 beneficiary in the jurisdiction of
Kansas A. o. U. W., for thirteen years,
ending January 1, 1894, was $11 90 or
1896 per $1,000, which is certainly
much cheaper, in fact several times
cheaper, than insurance in the old line
companies, not to speak of the fraternal
features.
Our local lodge feels very kindly to Ell
lis lodge for sending up delegation of
its members. The following is partial
list of the names of those attending: L.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.

Having decided to discontinue
business in this city about April l
I offer my patrons and the public
generally their last opportunity of
securing first class photographs
made at home, as this is positively
my last visit to Baxter Springs. 1
have carefully preserved all the
negatives made here during the last
two years, and as it will be inpossi.
BILE to keep them longer than my
stay here parties wishing duplicate
orders finished from them would do
well to give me their orders at once.
Very respectfully,
