motion OF John Harris, reorganized as

complimentary speeches on each other by Mr..
Kenny and j. G. Reinhardt. Each was coy and
hesitated to declare himself but finally
ballot was taken. Kenny received-twenty-one
votes and Reichardt twelve. The latter re-
tired at this stage and Kenny was declared

ham is giving j. w. Shepard and the other old
heads Of the Eleventh ward fight that will
test their stamina. The alderman is, like w.

that covers lodges Of all sorts. In this he
has found strength often before, and this time
he reckons to realize on it again. The young
er men are behind him, too, and it will be
strange If he doesn't beat Shepard out in the
race. Shepard says he isn't very particular
anyway.

To Raise Big Melons.

We do not know that any readers
of the Mail and Breeze are particularly
interested in watermelon culture, but
we were struck the other day with a
couple of receipts printed by Newton
man which are worth repeating. He
says that if you wish 30 raise big show
melon you must feed it, and this is his
process: Take needle and large soft
thread and sew piece through the
stem about one or two inches from the
melon you wish to enlarge, leaving
three or four inches of the string on
each side of stem hanging down, and
place beneath a cup or pan so the
strings hang in as far as possible.
The cup or prn must then be kept
full of water. For raising melons
without seeds the Newton man gives
the following: When the vine gets
about two feet long, place hoeful OF
dirt about ten Inches from the roots,
completely covering the stem there.
when at once it Will start root where
covered. When the new roots become
strong and before the melons appear.
cut the vines between the two sets OF
roots, leaving the vines supported by
the second instead of the first roots.
When the melons are ripe and cut it
will be found that they have no seeds
in them.-Topeka Mail and Breeze.

nadoes extending over one hundred

chances for twister in Kansas is
greatly diminished after the middle of

and the sky becomes overcast before
the rain and wind comes, there is no
danger. One can hear the roar of a

fifteen minutes befor it reaches you.

A swindle, which evidently is new,
is being worked with great success in
many towns. A woman book agent ap-
pears in town and goes from house TO
house, leaving books for examination.
Next day man calls to see if the books
are wanted. and if they are not takes
them away with him. Usually they
are not wanted. A few days later the
woman agent appears again, and on be-
ing told that the man has taken away
the books weeps copiously, saying the
villain has been collecting her books all
over town, pleads poverty and so on,
and accepts the proffered compensa-
ton.
