A Delusion and a Snare.

That Is what George Gleissner
thinks describes fishing and camping
In Saline and Ottawa counties. lie
and Henry Sexton deserted the
quartette and are home. Downer
and Smith are up in Ottawa and may
stay week or so yet. They had a
hilarious time fighting bugs and
mosquitoes but not good luck fishing.
In fact II is not on record that they
caught any fish. When George is
asked about 1t his eyes take faraway
look and he makes no sign. Had 1t
not been for Sterl's big specimen in
the show window he might have been
more brave but in the face OF that he
could say nothing, He does claim,
however, that snipe, ploycr and jack
rabbits were plentiful. The next
time he goes fishing he will take a
trip up Mud creek so that when night
comes he can return. While away he
won the title Of Captain and will
probably be known as cap Gleissner''
the remainder Of his life.

Dangerous Business.

A special agent Of the Union Pacific
was In the city looking up the Incl
dent Of a stone being thrown through
the window OF a coach on q train a
few days ago. No one was injured
but the law is very strict against
such actions. A l2-year-old boy
pleaded guilty to the action in
Quinn's court but on account Of its
being his first attempt and promising
to do better the verdict is held in
allegiance during good behavior. 1t
is dangerous business and boys will
do well to let 1t alone.

PEOPLE ALL WANT IT.
The National Fence Machine Il in
Great Demand.

When man gets hold Of some
thing that the people all want he is
in luck. The National Fence Machine
company seems to have exactly that
sort Of an institution and its general
manager, Charles Kubach, has hard
work furnishing the machines fast
enough to suit an anxious public.
He has been down in Missouri since
early in March. Today the CON-
pany's treasurer received a draft for
$l,24S net profit for May and June.
Previously he had sent 1882 for
March and April, making $24O0 in
four months. The gross sales in the
10 weeks amounted to $4867, an
average Of $5l day. Profit to the
company 5000 per month. This was
largely Mr.. Kubach's own sales as he
had but one man with him and 1t
proves not only his exceptional
ability as salesman but the de-
served popularity Of the machine.
Mr.. Kubach not only finds that the
fence machine is an easy seller but
that where once used 1t sells others.
In Missouri counties where it has
been introduced many sales have
followed the purchase Of one. The
cheapness, durability and rapidity Of
manufacture Of the fences made by
the National fence machine recon-
mend it to every farmer
The record Of this machine under
Mr.. Kubach's management from the
first has been little less than marvel
Gus. 1t has been a credit not alone
to the company but particularly to
the general manager who has proved
himself a salesman seldom equaled
and it is doubtful II it has ever been
excelled by acentral Kansas salesman.
Charlie will soon take a layoff and 60
to Manitou, Colorado, for summers
rest and recreation, to which he is
entitled.

CLOSED THE CONVENTION.
County Epworth League Meeting a
Success.

| special 10 thc REFLECTOR
ENTERPRISE, July 1.-The Epworth
convention continued yesterday after
noon and evening with accelerated in
terest. Your correspondent unin-
tentionally omitted mention Of q
very interesting paper Of yesterday
morning. Miss Carrie Clayton Of
Chapman read an exceedingly COM
mendable paper upon the subject
"The Highest New Testament Stand
ard Of Experience and Life
Discussion followed.
The first paper Of the afternoon
was read by Henry Davidson Of
Dillon, "How Should Pastor Deal
With the Young People"
He set forth very clearly the rela-
ton Of pastor to the young. This
was followed by very carefully pre-
pared paper upon the above subject
reversed, Treatment Of Young Peo-
pie to Their PASTOR The papers
were warmly debated.
One Of the most excellent papers
was read by John Jackson upon the
subject young Citizenship" Dis
cussion followed this as usual.
"llow Should Young People OBJ
serve the Sabbath" was next treated
by Mr.. Chas. Turner.
The person assigned to give a
paper on "Amusemcnts for Young
People, being absent the topic was,
opened for general discussion.
Mr. W. A. Keve Of Abilene pre-
sented perhaps the best paper Of the
session upon the subject Import
ance Of Doctrine. "
The last and very commendable pa
per was read by 4. Il. Hollar. Dis
cussion followed.
The evening session opened by a
song service conducted by Rev. B. +.
Dice, Talmage.
Presiding Elder Underwood preached
the concluding sermon, which was
spoken Of as an excellent address.
Much interest was manifested all
through this convention.
The papers read were Of high
order, and were replete with good
sense.
There were in attendance about SOL
delegates from abroad, and many Of
our citizens awaited themselves Of the
different sessions. The Epworth
Leagues Of this county have received
a great impetus from this convention.

Geza, the alleged Hungarian noble
man who has put in his time in Kan
sas for several years. He is a fiddler
par excellence and has had a varied
career. Three or four months ago be
left the state and entered, 1t was said,
the monastery Of St. Louis.Bertrand
in Kentucky, determined to end biz
life inside its walls as . monk because
Of being heartbroken over the death
Of young lady with whom he was
in love. He left bis biography in the
hands Of Lawrence man to edit and
publish. 1t was called "A Modern
Don Juan, or the Adventures Of a
Hungarian Nobleman" and consisted
Of As chapters written in English,
German and Hungarian. Then came
the report that he had been promoted
to able and was going to Rome to
study. But the life Of monk seems

Simon Shockey's Farming Experience.

------0 - E~-@ ~s>SS'
There are tricks in all trades and
Simon Shockey's first experience as a
horny handed son Of toll is but a repe-
tition Of the old rule. As REFLECTOR
readers know Simon has taken to
farming, and the first thing he did
was to buy four fine big colts to fur
nish motive power for turning over
the soil. The colts were duly hitched
to a new 16-inch sulky and Simon
started his first furrow. The team
was new at the business and thought
that running was easier than walking
and that circle was just as good as
a straight line They got into the
middle Of the road, plowed up Sec
tions Of it, rooted out hedges that had
feeders two inches thick, and went
on a regular rampage. The fun lasted
nearly half hour, during which time
Simon did more deep blowing than in
all his life time before. The team
was finally turned into the right path
and is now doing three acres a day.
Simon will never forget that experi-
ence, Charley Wagner was his aid
de-camp in the melee and came out
without any broken bones.
