Some of the Kansas City papers last
Sunday contained all account of Clyde
Canatsey having fallen from a build
lug on which he was working. His
arm Was broken ana internal injuries
make his recovery doubtful. Clyde
used 10 live IN lola and is q nephew
of Frank Canatsey. The family has
received no word of the accident, so
it is hoped that tho report may prove
false.
Shorty West, the young man whose
hand was crushed while coupling cars
at Chanute last week, passed through
lola yesterday. One of the boys VINO
used To know him here, asked him,
"What are you going to do now,
Shorty ," The plucky little man
ans wered thathe intended patenting
device for coupling cars which
would remove the danger. We adj
mire spirit like that.
Mr.. Harmon's Chrysanthemum-
Show has been in full force and effect
at the opera house this week, and has
attracted numerous visitors from NeO-
sho Falls, Humboldt and other ad-
joining towns. The ladies of the
Eastern Star have served dinner and
supper each day and have given an
entertainment each evening, afford
ing delightful physical retreshment
and mental entertainment. The show
has been a success in every way.
The Kansas farmer is a good,
whOle-souled human being after all.
! We learned last week that two men
travelling in covered wagon for lola
were burned out near Kincaid A
match sci fire to the straw, and they
| lost a complete outfit except the team
of mules and the running gear to the
wagon. Instead of trying to profit by
their misfortune. a farmer in the
neighbOrhOOd offered to give them
if they were broke, wagon box as
good as new Kansans are nearly all
civilized white men, when you get
acquainted with them.
AS DR.. w. X. Jones was driving
home from the social at Mrs. ScOtt's
Friday night the front wheel of his
buggy came off and his wife and her
mother. who were with him in the
buggy, were thrown violently TO the
ground and quite severely bruised.
Fortunately the Doctor did not lose
his hold upon the lines and soon
stopped his horse, thus preventing
more serious injury. The buggy was
damaged to the extent, probably, of
$500. Evidently the hub tap had
been lOOsened, probably by some
mischievous boys, who thought they
were having "fun."
The preliminary examination of f
w. LAYER, of Salem, charged with
incest with his two daughters, was
held before Justice Potter this yes
terday, and the defendant was bound
over for appearance at the March
term of the District Court. Mr.. LAYER
has lived in Salem IA years he has all
the time maintained an unblemished
reputation as a Christian gentleman.
and his neighb Ors generally refuse to
believe that there is any truth in the
charges. Personally we have known
Mr.. LAYER great many years and 1t
will take very convincing evidence
indeed to force us to believe him
guilty of so heinous and unnatural a
! crime.
In one of this years publications
entitled Authors Readings, pub
| lished by Frederick Stearns of New
York, Opie Read, the distinguished
novelist tells the following truthful
story of the struggles of his early life.
He and his partner published paper
called the Prairie FJOlUer at Carlyle,
Kans. 1t did not pay. The partners
were finally requested to leave their
hotel on account of their inability to
pay their bills. So they took the
evening train north, riding on passes,
and returned on the south bound,
thus escaping paying for beds. 1t is
beautiful lie. Carlyle is the little
/ burg five miles north of here and
there never was newspaper or hotel
in the place.
THE TRUE REMEDY. w. NJ. Repine,
editer Tishkilwa, ILL.,, "Chief," says:
ave won't keep house without DR..
Kings New Discovery for cOnsump-
ton, coughs and colds. Experiment.
ed with many others. but never got
the true remedy until we used DR..
Kings New Discovery. No other
remedy can take its place in our
home, as in it we have a certain and
sure cure for coughs, colds whOoping
cough, etc." 1t is idle to experiment
with other remedies even if they are
urged on you as just as good as DR..
Kings New Discovery. They are
not as good, because this remedy has
a record of cures and besides is guar
anteed. 1t never fails to satisfy.
