1t was reported yesterday that some
time during the first day Of the month
that parties made their appearance on
the mining property owned by L. w.
Kimball, near Tigerville, with the inten-
ton Of representing that property. They
had not proceeded very far, hewever.
before they were admonished by Mr..
Kimball. who had taken up his position
behind . tree, to make themselves
scarce, which demand was backed up
by . trusty Winchester. The would-be
claimants were not slow in making their
disappearance, but afterwards. 90 IL 10
stated, made a return visit accompanied
by the deputy sheriff. The second at
tempt proved - futile AZ the first, the
deputy also receiving an order to walk
land he walked. At last reports Mr..
Kimball wss still in possession Of his
property, just - be has been for the last
seventeen years.-Rapid Journal.

that the service had begun he induced
the girl to remain in buggy during

had severe sickness and he has the
contempt Of everyone. We refrain

We Pay for It.

In the REFLECTOR Of last evening
appeared short article entitled,
"Who Pays for It," The article over
the signature Of "School Patron"
referred to the Sunhower, monthly
paper issued by the Abilene high
school. Unfortunately, the article
was entirely misleading and erron-
cous.
We desire to say the Sunfower is
not supported by the entertainment
fund" There have so far been three
issues Of the paper-a Thanksgiving
number, q Christmas number, and
the present number. The first issue
was an eight page one and was paid
for entirely by the advertisements.
The Christmas issue was also eight
pages and about six-sevenths or
nearly the whole Of that was also
paid for by advertisements. The
present issue has been paid for by
subscription and not cent from the
entertainment fund" The Christ
mas entertainment was given for the
avowed purpose Of establishing a
journalistic and library fund-not an
entertainment fund.- Out of the
journalistic fund was drawn the
amount necessary to pay for the re-
mainder due on the Christmas issue
Of the SunAower. Aside from this,
eleven dollars was put into the
library fund.
Now, a word in regard to the object
of the Sunfower. We wish to say
most emphatically that it is not pub
lished "to crafty the pride Of half a
dozen students who want to run q
paper" 1t is published BY for and
in the interest Of all the pupils Of the
high school. 1t goes hand in hand
with the literary societies and its
prime object is to develop the school
in the way of good, practical English.
1t is used as an incentive to better
and more careful work in English and
is proving wonderful help to the
high school.
Let it be said in conclusion that the
Sunflower will continue to bloom.

X. G. Star. A Kansas exchange
deplores the gossip in the town in
which 1t is published, One of the
unpleasant features Of life in a small
town is gossip. Tattling about the
neighbors Is a common vice. A dis
position to know something about the
business Of everyone in town and
have some criticism TO make on each
one, Is second nature to the villagers.
This is the bane of sidewalk talk, and
disheartens many one Of good and
noble impulses. A gossip cannot be
souelched, for his work Is done under
cover; then the best thing that can be
done is to educate the public to the
point Of discrediting the tattler and
tale bearer. Above all things don't
gossip.
