PROSPERITY IN KANSAS.
The Wheat and the Hens and the
Cows and the Kids All Feel 1t.

Emporla CKan) Gazette Rep).
The fellows here in town who never
get into vanished buggy and view the
landscape DER have an idea that the
wave Of prosperity promised last fall Is
not here. The town isn't doing much
it's true. But out in the country the
wave has come 1t caresses the tawny
coat of the wheat.
Wheat is fairly jumping up in the mar
ket and In the Kansas fields. The wave
is laying the laughing tresses of the al
falfa that lies thick in the uplands. The
first crop is in the stack. The second cut
ting is almost ready.
The price is good and stiff, and the
little pigs in the COW lot viii soon he
turned on the field and begin to fill out
for the fall market The wave of pros
perity is on the pigs.
They are sousing In II, wallowng In 1t.
and making their owners more money to-
day than they have made since Harrison
left the white house.
The old hen Is scratching in prosperity
and the young fries are running about
with the wave hitting them so hard that
their tail feathers get pushed In faster
than they can grow out. The chicken
market was never better.

steer are knee deep In prosperity. The
wave mas struck them. and they are
tramping around slashing the still waters
of contentment all over the old man and
the boys whenever they go In the lower
pastures
And when the missus and the kids go
into the COW lot, with the three-legged
stool and the tin bucket and the two
quart cup for the "strippings" that wave
OF prosperity lust naturally cools the
womens temples and washes the kinks
of woe out Of their minds, and the b-r-r-r
of the milk on the bottom Of the bucket
becomes the sound Of trowel and ham
mer upon air castles over the hills and
far away.
You are just mighty right-the wave
has come to the COW lot.
And il has struck the corn field and the
oats patch. IL Is surging all over the
farm. Down in the orchard-where the
cutworms haven't damned things up
the wave is tapping upon the trunks Of
the trees, and blackberries and goose
berries have TO be skinned or the crest
Of the wave every morning with road
scrapper.
Pretty soon the peaches and the cher
ries will be on the wave, and then IL Will
take a tin roof to gather them.
When this wave gets done slashlrg
around the farm a will flow into tie
town. II will ooze little by little into the
bank accounts, into the bad hills, into
the sugar barrels into the -four bins. into
the oil cans that grease the lawn mowers.
Then n will oil the paint buckets ana
timber up the brushes, and wen paint up
and look pretty.
The wave has struck the country; II
has inundated the farms; just hold your
horses and IL will get 10 town. For the
wave has come.

BACK AMONG THE OLD FOLKS.
President Mckinley Given a Warm
welcome at Canton.


Canton, July S-President Mckinley
and party reached the city on the 1880
O'clock train and were met at the depot
by the citizens en- masse. A large pro-
portion of the populace marched In the
parade to receive and escort the party,
bands, military companies. old soldiers,
and organizations of last falls campaign
being conspicuous in line. Thousands of
others went to the depot unorganized
and the crowd there was almost equal
to that of March l, when the President
departed for the Inauguration. The BOOM
ing of cannon announced the train as It
reached the city.
Although the McKinieys travel on the
regular train thousands of people gather
ed at every station. At Alliance and Sa-
lem the crowds we're particularly large.
The President unattended went to the
car platform and shook hands with hun
dreds Of his old congressional district con-
stituents. Men, women and children
clambered into the train. Eighteen miles
from his home. at Alliance, the Canton
reception committee, headed by Hon.
George e. Baldwin and John c. Dueber
and a dozen others, boarded the train. AT
Canton the crowd was so great the police
had to clear the station platform to the
carriages.
After returning the greeting accorded
him by his townsmen, he hurried to his
old home, where he was met by Mother
Mckinley. The party later In the day
took a drive to several points of interest
in the vicinity. In anticipation Of the
Presidents attending church tomorrow,
seats at the First Methodist church have
risen to a premium.

Cecil Rhoder, Diplomacy.
Cecil Rhodes Diplomacy.

@N+hSNNR
A yarn that ought TO supply some OF
our enterprising contemporaries with the
material for special cable dispatch" app
pears In a paper 3ust arrived from London,
says the New York Times. IL probably
isn't true yarn, but that doesn't make
Il the less well worth repeating or believ-
ing, for IL Is Characteristic and illumina-
tive. and that, after all. is OF more conse-
quence than a foundation on literal fact.
Anyhow. here is the yarn. In the days
before Cecil Rhodes and Barney Barnato
had Joined forces, Rhodes once found him
self in control OF almost every diamond
in the South African market. To him came
Barnato with a fair offer for a good share
OF the gems, some 22),OOO carats being
what he wanted. Rhodes considered
while, and then said the trade could be
made, but only on one condition. Barnato
asked what Il was, and the other replied:
you must let me see a sight which no
other man ever saw-a bucketful Of dia-
monds turned out IN a heap on the floor"
The ex-juggler stared In amazement at
hearing a proposition so childish from
man 80 practical, but he instantly con-
scented TO crafty his rivals fancy. The
diamonds were placed IN the bucket and
then emptied out In glltterlng heap. Az
ter they had sufficiently admired the
treasure, Barnato paid over the agreed
price. and carried his property away,
thinking OF nothing but the profits he was
going TO make on the Transaction. IL was
only day or two later that he realized the
true meaning Of Rhodes apparent folly.
The diamonds could not be sold until they
had again been assorted into the 100 va
rieties recognized by che trade. and this
was a task that occuried the experts en-
pioyed by Baruato fully six weeks. Mean
while Rhodes. who had other diamonds In
reserve. controlled the market. which he
had an 60 himself, and on comparatively
small Investment he made lot Of money.

Main Road In Bad COndit!On--Fun
era, of a Veteran.

There is probably no piece of road in tho
New England states in such poor condition as
the main road leading into Bristol from War
rem. In many places il is not safe to drive
over it, and the town has already settled for
damages caused by people having TO drive in
the cutters. 1t is the egress and ingfess to
the town and there are several sections OF the
road where the builder lost sight of the
crushed stones that shoulG have been put
upon it, Still the town holds its annual town
meetings and never makes any appropriations
for redressng the road, nor does the Council
recommend the Improvement in its report.
What could have been remedied for small
sum will now take large amount, caused
simply through neglect on the part of those
