What IL q Nice Woman?


A man said that his idea of u nice
woman was one who was charmed with
what he said, and paid very little atten.
ton to the things he did.
a nice woman Is one who says good
morning with a smile, and goodnight
with blessing.
A nice woman IL one who doesn't
make you suffer at secondhand with
her aches, nor expect you to think there
IL but one doctor In the world. and that
lie II the one of her choice.
A nice woman Ii one who IL evenly
pleased with the weather--that IL, the
temperature does not affect her temper.
aud when the skies rain water she does
not shower tears and groans every.
where.
A nice woman Is one who can eat
what IL set before her, wear the clothes
she possesses. ana do both with anna
bility and without envy.
4 nice woman IL one who sees the
niceness In you and me ana MI the rest
Of the world, ana as she Obliterates our
faults she makes us try to do 1t too.
That's the nice woman.

A HOLTON preacher took the dan
deliOn as his text lately and said that
it was the nearest perfect flower in
the world and that the plant was re-
garded by bOtanists as the highest
type of vegetation yet discovered.
He declared that the dandeliOn was
unknown to savages, and the higher
the civilization the more prolific did
this flower become. If that last state
ment is true, and if the rankness and
abundance of the dandelion are to be
taken as evidences of civilization,
then we submit that the south yard
Of the Pennsylvania Hotel, lola, Kan
sas, is the most civilized spot on the
face of the globe.

JESSE GRANT seems to be going
from bad to worse. Last summer it
was announced that he had turned
Populist; a few weeks ago he demand
ed and received from the committee in
charge of the ceremonies $50 to pay
theexpense OF his Journey to attend the
dedication of his fathers monument;
and now the dispatches state that
he is at the head of a company which
has obtained a concession from the
Mexican government and will build
and run the finest gambling house in
the world,

THE joint resolution recognizing the
belligerency of the Cuban insurgents
which was passed by the Senate last
week will be held up in the House
until the plans of the President, now
maturing are formulated. Even if it
should pass the House the Presidents
policy would not be changed in any
way as he regards the recognition of
belligerent. There is no doubt that
President Mckinley is informing him
self fully as, to conditions in Cuba,
and the country may safely trust his
judgment as to the time and the
nature of the action to be taken by
this government.

Dave Leahy is starting out well as Topeka
correspondent of the Kansas City Times, but
it must be great effort for him to hold his
robust Wichita imagination in cheek-Eu-
reka Messenger.
AS Mr.. Leahy is still in Wichita and
will not begin his work on the Times
until June /, the foregoing Observa-
tiOn is little premature. But talking
about that Wichita imagination, Mr..
Leahy denies the allegation. He says
that a poor devil of newspaper man,
with no way to make living except
by sending dispatches to the daily
papers, used to hang around Wichita
and when news was scarce he would
90 to the Eagle office for help. And
out of the goodness of their hearts
(and the fertility of their inventiOn)
Dave Leahy and Victor MurdOck
would tell him terrible tales about an
innocent babe falling 20 feet into a
drilled well, or about bank robbery
over at Mulvane, or an Indian raid
down in the Territory, and the p. d.
would HE him away rejoicing to the
telegraph office. And Dave Leahy
never faxed thing in his life.

K. G. JOurndt: Professor d. s.

in his salary by the State Legislature.
He goes to JeffersOnville, Ind, as
principal of the city schools, at a
largely increased salary. When

1T may somewhat sOOtne the Iacer-
ated feelings of the papers who insist
that Prof. Garfield was refused cleo
tiOn to the ChancellOrshlp of the State
University because of his tariff views, ,.
to know that Prof. Garfield was never
a candidate for the Office of Chan
cellOr. His friends strongly urged
his selection, but he himself was for
Prof. Snow from the first and used all
his influence with the Beard of Re-
gents to secure the latter's appoint
ment. 1t is the silliest rot to say that
man who was never q candidate
and who urged another man for the
place was so piqued because that OF
her man succeeded that he left the
State. Prof. Garfield did not leave
for more than a year after Prof. Snow
had been made chancellor, and he
left then because he was offered q
bigger place and twice as large a
salary.

TRUE As Gospel,

Charley Scott gives vent to his pent up
feelings in the lola REGISTER in this wise.
1T is little aggravating, but it is true, that
the only merchant in town who refused to
give anything to help bear the expense of
locating the smelter here, and who has
never contributed a dollar to any of the
public enterprises that have been under
taken here during the past year, has prob
ably reaped greater advantage from the
growth of the town than an yother man.
There are too many such men in every town
and yet, strange to say, the wrath of the re-
former, agitatOr and sO-called advance.
thinker. is never directed against this class.
of drOnes. but against the men of push and
energy who manage to maze money and
help others to make mOney in the effort to.
build up a community. Carnegie has done
more than any other man to build up Pitts
burg and vicinity, and furnished more en-
ployment to labor than any other man in
the town, but he is condemned for making
his millions, while the men who profit
largely by his works and do nothing are
never censured. The Goulds and Wander
bilts have carried out projects which have
employed thousands of men, but they are
denounced for making their money in this
way, while the Astors and Hetty Green, who
have amassed fortunes-by inaetion and
prohting by the thrift Of others, are not
generally classed among the Shylocks and
Octopusses. Men Of thrift, who can make
millions by their push and energy are a
blessing to any town. drones who profit by
the business push of others are no earthly
good to any town.-TopeEd Mail and Breeze.
There never were truer words than
the foregoing comment. And the
Mail and Breeze need not have gone
so far from home to find illustrations
to enforce its point. Every body in
lola knows that the men who are
most viciOuslY assailed here in this
town, the men who must be "downed'7
every time an election comes around.
are the men who have done and are
doing the most to give employment
to labor, to bring trade to our mer-
chants, and to build up the town
generally. 1t is the pushers and the
workers who couldn't be elected
dog pelter." not the drOnes and the
leeches. The man who sits down and
spOnges his profits from his more en-.
neighbors, who never gives
q dollar to any public cause, who
never contributes a word or a cent to
make the town better place to live
IN or work in, is all right, while the
man who rustles, who puts mis- money
INTO gas wells and brick plants and
'melters and who thereby dou bles
the value of all the property in town
and furnishes employment to all the
abor, is a public enemy who must be
'downed" next fall. 1t is passing
strange.

A GOOD deal of interest has been
felt in The suit brought by George
Harris against the Modern WOodmen
of America for $4,000 damages for an
alleged injury while being initiated
into the order. The case was carried
before the United States Court at
Dubuque, Ia, and there it ended
abruptly by Judge WOOlsOn ordering
the jury to return a verdict for the
defendant. That would seem to in-
dicate that if a man climbs onto a
goat of his own free will and gets the
worst of the ride he must pay his
own DOCTORS bills.

WHENEVER anything of unusual
interest happens anywhere on earth
it is a foregOne conclusion that a
Kansas man has hand in it. The
first and best photographs from the
GrecO-Turkish field of war came from
Bert Underwood, an old Ottawa boy,
who just happened TO be in Athens
when the war broke out. He went
to the front, spent five days taking
pictures and got them to England and
America ahead off others. Hdrpers-
Weekly published a page of them last
week, together with an interesting
article from Mr.. Underwood in which
he describes the Macedonian chief
who brought on the war as looking
and talking like old John Brown.

The Kansas City Times having in.
quired on it's editorial page with un.
common vIciOusness, "Where is the
prosperity the Republicans promised
US ?" the Lawrence Journal politely
refers it to its own commercial page
whereOn appears the following:
Last week was a banner week for Kan
sas City as far as the general trade of the
City was concerned, as indicated by the
bank clearings, which showed gain of 25.4
per cent over the corresponding week of
1896 On Saturday the gain over the same
day last year was 46 per cent "
and the upward movement is but the begin
ming Ofa still greater activity in CONNER
cial circles.

IT is not likely there will be any
Pop. picnics this summer, but if there
is the Lydon Journal thinks it reas-

corporations, NO railroad passes for
officers of the State or members of the

WE SEE that Champion FitZsim-
mons was introduced by his managers
to Senator Hanna at Washington the
other day with the formula, "BOb,
shake hands with Senator Hanna"
1t is entirely fitting that such phrase
should be adopted by a professional
thug, for of all the forms of speech
whereby one man is made acquainted
with another this is certainly the
most bOOrish and detestable.

rHE OLD soLplER RAukEr.

Hello old man, come over here,
And say how things is goin',
How's corn and wheat, and cows and hogs,
And how's that grass you're mowin'?
Just leave the hay lawn there.
The boys will come and stack it;
1 want to ask you what you think
OF this Old Soldier Racket
Last night heered some fellers say,
Down at the school house spellin'
That they was gittin mighty sick
OF this internal yellin',
The law TO vets was muchrtOo free
The Nation couldn't back it;
They had to be stop. they said,
To this Old Soldier Racket
I've heerd the same thing lot of times,
When it was said much louder
Before these dudes could walk or talk.
Or knowed the smell of powder,
You mind when Vicksburgs cannons roared
Time we come on the packet,
1t made Old Pemberton turn sick
To hear that soldier racket.
And when brave Sherman marched back north
And left the rebels beaten,
The boys were not so quiet then
As though they'd been in meetin',
And when at Richmond treason died,
And Grant tanned Lees gray jacket,
The rebels thought they'd had enough
of that old soldier racket.
think know when I've enough;
don want no more battle,
want to quit and stay at home,
And tend my hogs and cattle,
I've no more use for my old gun;
I'm willin now to stack it,
But these here rebs haint heerd the last
Ofmy old soldier racket.
We done our duty good and well.
We helped bust treasOn's bubble;
We whipped the same old rebel crew
That's maxim all this trouble;
And when we're done with gun and sword,
And hang EN- on the bracket,
don't think GOd'll say to us
HE wants no soldier racket

tended to have Misty Dawn kill her
self with that stilletto, but lot of the
women of Wichita got wind of it and
served notice on him that if he dared
do such thing they would stop their

And so the stillettO killed the Indian

"TOO much money" was the scare
head in the Topeka Journal over a
long dispatch from New York in
which the fact was set forth that some
of the largest banks there were in
danger of being swamped with money,
their deposits running up into
millions and their loans being so small
as not to pay running expenses.
Which reminds us to inquire what
has become of the old fashioned
Populist who used to edit the Journal
and who scared US nearly to death
every day or two by predicting that
the Republic was going to everlasting
smash right away because we didn't
have ''per capiter" enough?
