The ground is frozen deep this winter
and this Is an uncommon thing in this
country of mild winters Hiram Wing,
sexton of Maple Grove Cemetery, says
the ground is frozen down twelve inches,
as he found when digging a grave on
Sunday. Frozen ground and consider.
able moisture, such as we are having, is
a good thing for crops. "Hard winters"
are Away followed by good crop years.
You never hear much about drouths in
countries where there is plenty of freez-
ing and an abundance of snow. This
winter seems to be one of unusual ex-
ception for this section of country.

The Senate COMMITTEES has decided to
report bill dividing the 31st Judicial
district, and attaching it to the adjoining
districts. Ford, Meade and Gray coun-
ties under this plan would be attached to
Judge Hutchinson's district. on the west.
1t is said there is no politics in this, and
it is done in the interest of economy. 1t
would be bad thing to displace as good
an officer as Judge Price. The law would
not take effect until next January, the
time Judge Prices term expires.

Diseases of the vermiform appendix
seems to be more common than formerly,
or else we haye an old disease under q
new name; but this is hardly true. Ap-
pendicitis is a new name for an old
alimentary disease, but it is no more
common than formerly. Its treatment
may be different, and under certain con-
ditions of the disease the knife is used to
save the patient. There are many sue
cessful cases treated in this way. If the
patient is not of rugged constitution. he is
not likely to survive the surgeons scalpel.
Violent pains Of the bowels and stom-
ach come from an inflamed condition of
the yermiform appendix, which condi-
ton has been produced by the Judgement
of seeds. or other indigestible substance,
in the apparently useless appendage Of
the digestive apparatus, located at the
conjunction of the smaller and larger in
testines.
We speak of this subject because two
young citizens Of Dodge City have I'M
dergone treatment for appendicitis.
Paul Evans, who is employed in Chicago,
has just recovered frvm an attack of ap-
pendicitis. His condition was critical at
one time, but no surgical operation was
necessary. Fred Gilbert, who was en-
ployed in store in Kansas City, died on
Monday morning, from an attack of ap-
pendicitis. He was sick but few days,
being taken sick on Thursday. The veri.
form appendage was removed by n sur
geon's knife, but young Gilbert did not
survive, his case being a critical one.
He was of strong constitution, but
his sickness was violent one. An apple
seed was found In the appendage re-
moved from young Gilbert.

The Garden City roller mills were en-
tirely destroyed by fire Tuesday morn
ing between 2 and o'clock. 1t was one
of the finest mills of the state and its de-
struct ton is a great loss. Two thousand
bushels Of wheat and three car loads Of
-four were burned. The building was
insured for $2,500. but there was none
on the stock.
The origin Of the fire was certainly in
cendiary.
The mill was owned by New York
parties and was doing good business.

BESSIE'S GREAT SACRIFICE.
She Felt Sorry for Baby Who Had No
Doll.

The stockings had been hung up and
the little ones gathered around the
hearth to hear mamma tell the story
of the Babe of bethlehem, SAYS the
New York World. Their small faces
expressed profound sympathy when
they heard how the Son Of God was
born in a stable, how lie lay on a bed
of straw, how He shivei'cd in the cool
December night and how His life was
in danger from the wicked ITcrod. Lit
tie Bessie seemed 10 be particularly i'm
pressed. She said nothing, but one
could see that she was thinking hard.
Nh@sehalf an hour later, mamma
came To Bessie's bed to kiss her good
night, she found the child pressing her
doll to her bosom and gazing at it with
unutterable affection. AS she stopped
over the bed Bessie looked up and
asked, earnestly: Mamma, amt Gods
baby got any dolly?"
"No," replied the mother, smiling.
Bessie looked at her doll again and
hugged it. Then conflicting emotions
showed themselves on the little face.
After &. long silence the child raised
her eyes, which had such an expression
as those of the martyrs must have worn
at the stake, and said, firmly: Take
it 10 Him. mamma
Closing her eyes tight Bessie laid the
dol. in her mothers hands and buried
her face in the pillow to try to forget
the great sacrifice she had made.

MUSTACHES IN FAVOR.


But Few Decades Ago They Were I'm

'Ia the GO years [ have lived in New

porter of the New York Mail and En-
press, Il have never seen such varia-

tache. Why, is seems that everybody
trains and crops them as an advertise
ment for their various professions. The
broker, the banker, the sport. the bust
ness man, etc. seem to adopt styles of
their own.
Talking of mustaches reminds of the
time when Consul Glidon came to New
York from Egypt in 1897 wearing big
black. dropping n.ustachc. He was
looked upon as 4 curiosity. and it was
some years later before the mustachc
was generally adopted. When ! was u
