at peanuts and circus lemonade, q
country boy is the honey boy to smile
on. A country boy doesn't have the n
opportunity to treat his girl every day, b

The public schools of Lawrence have "
been closed for ten days on account of D
diphtheria. The disease has not as O
sumed a malignant form and the W
closing of school is largely precau-
tionary measure. There have been
but few deaths yet and there are only d
a score of cases in the city. v
The interment of the remains of Mrs. s,
F. Connor took place Monday at Law S,
renee. Mr.. and Mrs. Connor came to IL
Lawrence in the SOS. Mrs. Common g,

A prominent Rock Island man who o.
visited Atchison few days ago, says '.
he knows as a fact that the Rock ., %

Among the notable speakers on the fr
program at the Kansas State Irriga- hi
ton association which convenes at di

At Atchison arrangements are be- CT
ing made with view, if possible, OF n
securing relief for James Mutt, who G.
was recently sentenced to the peni- 81
Tertiary for term of fifteen years. G
While it is not hoped at the present l
time to secure pardon for Mutt, it is P

sentence reduced materially. The U
two persons whom Mutt attempted to Il
kill have both recovered, and this Il
condition of things will be urged as v
reason why the prisoner should re-
ceive some consideration from those in c
authority.

son for assaulting him than because
