course: THE Resurrection" Evening:
Prayer" All are cordially invited.
Hon. A. III. Blair has fallen into
line and will try his hand at hus-
bandry this summer when he feels in
need of rest. He has had his lots
on Quality hill plowed and expects to
raise a promiscuous lot of garden sass
if the neighbours hens don't anticipate
him.
We are. informed that three of the
teachers in our public schools expect
to drop out of the profession after
this term. Prof. Opp will engage in
business in Topeka. Miss WEIGH will
reside with her parents in Topeka
and Miss Neuenschwander will attend
college.
''With malice toward none and
charity for all'' is the way Trimmer,
of the Quinter Republican, winds up
an editorial announcing the opening
of Vol. I. To read between the lines
you will also observe neat little
thrust at the county seat papers in
the same quotation.
! Our idea is that one preacher is
enough for Wa-Keeney these dull
times. Rev. Johnson is generally
liked and it occurs to us that
the best thing to do would be
for all, regardless of religious beliefs,
to assist in supporting him. This
idea of ours is not entirely original
either.
The latest results of pharmaceutical
science and the best appliances are
availed Of in compromising Ayers Sar-
Saparilla. Hence, though half GEN.
fury in existence as medicine, it is
fully abreast of the age in all that
goes to make it the standard blood
purifier.
The soldiers colony have taken an
option on 100000 acres of land in
Georgia at $3.50 per acre. The land is
reported as well watered and highly
productive. There are several mem
bers of the colony in Wa-Keeney but
we are not advised that any of them
seriously contemplate leaving sunny
Kansas for the sunny South as a
permanent habitatiOn.
Naturally fair compilations would
be the rule rather than the exception,
as unfortunately it is at present, if
the ladies would wholly abandon COS
metics, and more generally keep the
blood pure and vigorous by the use of
Ayers Sarsaparilla, the only reliable
blood purifier.
Last Friday, April 9Th, will long be
remembered as one of the worst wind
storms that Kansas ever experienced.
Even the oldest timer reluctantly adj
mitted that he had never seen a worse
one in 70 or 80. 1t was followed that
night by heavy fall of the ''beauti-
full" and on the following day it rain
ed nearly all day and a portion of the
night. The ground was thoroughly
saturated to a great depth and our
wheat farmers were buoyant and
happy.
Miss Melton, of Mosul, Turkey, will
lecture in the Presbyterian church
next Wednesday evening, April 18th.
Many of our readers will remember
that this is the lady who was beaten
by the Koords at Daree, Turkey, near
ly three years ago and which occur
renee excited much comment as well
as excitement in the United States at
the time. 1t is not often that we
have the opportunity to hear such an
interesting and instructive, descrip-
tive lecture and we advise all to be
present.
Mr.. Bristow, forestry foreman at
Ogallah, was caller last Monday.
He informed us that there are 81, SOC
available for irrigation experiments
and that this question will be thor
oughly tested this summer. D. Nc
Mcdonald has a contract to dig well
and is now at work. He is to receive
50. per foot and must dig until plenty
of water is obtained. Mr.. Bristow
says he is delighted with the appear
ance of this country and he seems to
be enthusiastic in the work in which
he is engaged.
AS though Hays City had not SUI
fered enough, her spring poet, warm
edup by the winds fiend's fitful glee'
and the fire fend's furious leap,
sings doleful dirge in last weeks
Republican. We have sailed it down
THE FIRE FIEND.
Woel woe to those in the pathway
