A FESTAL OCCASION.
Young Men Entertained at Supper at the
PRESBYTERIAN ParlOrs.

Sixty-five young men responded to
the invitation to attend supper at
she Presbyterian church parlors last
evening. Rev. Lee w. Beattie was
the host and entertainer, and he was
assisted in the dining room by num-
Der of young ladies, who filled the
part of mattresses. The supper was
an ample affair, consisting Of cold
turkey, potatoes, salad, bread and
butter, olives, ice cream, cake and
soffee.
When the viands had been disposed
of, Rev. MIR. Beattie took his station
as toast master, which he carried out
in his usual agreeable manner, keep
ing the company In the best of humor.
A couple of songs were rendered,
and at the suggestion Of the toast
master the gathering drank to the
health of the young ladies, amidst a
clicking Of glasses filled with
Adams ale.
Attorney B. G. Taylor responded
wittily to the toast of 1.-The Young
Man and the Klondike." He said
that the Klondike did not appeal to
him as it does to some, and that he
preferred the climate of Minnesota.
81. A. Patterson responded in q
happy vein to the toast "The Young
Man in Business" drawing some very
excellent conclusions.
Superintendent A. W. Varney was
called upon to respond to the toast Of
BRAINS" which he did in highly
pleasing manner. He urged that each
develop the brain that he is endowed
with.
Principal FL. B. Leyenberger, of the
high school, was the last speaker, and
his toast was "Wives." He was highly
eulogistic of his subject, and urged
that the happiness of husbands lay in
trying to make their wives happy. A
good wife and good home we're to
be desired above all things.
The last toast was to have been
along the religious side and
w. d. Willard was to have
responded to it. Mr.. Beattie
took Mr.. Wizards place, however,
and gave an excellent talk to the
young men. He urged that joy and
happiness has its place in the church,
and not sombreness entirely, and he
held that young men can find the
church relationship profitable. He
extended welcome to allyoung men
to enter into the work.of the churches.
He closed by speaking feelingly
of the death of Mr.. John A. willard,
whose simple faith in his religion, his
public spirit, and his private bene
ficence he referred to.

EASTERN STAR MEETING.

The district meeting of delegations
The Topeka state journal., 1897-11-06

John P. Sonnhalter, who lives at No. SIS
Melrose Ave, Cleveland Ohio, is one of
small army who can bear testimony to DR..
Williams Pink Pills. Mr. SOnnhalter Is IN
the prime of life. He is married and his
family is his pride. He is strong and ath-
many other men who are similarly fortunate
in the possession of an excellent constitution,
he recently overestimated the strain which
it could undergo. He is the yardmaster of
the Zettelmeyer Coal Company, Nos. % to
81 Commercial St., and in that capacity
physical strength. The use of a great deal
of muscular energy, however, did not seem
to affect him in any manner until last spring.
Then he discovered, to his alarm, that he
had been over-exerting himself. He began
to be troubled with congestion, mental and
physical prostration q relaxation of the
muscular tissues, insomnia, and other symp-
toms of the result of overwOrk. But the
story in his own words is interesting, for he
tells it in the plain and simple manner
characteristic of a man who earns his susten-

same time he pays glowing tribute to his

" 1t was last May" said Mr. Sonnhalter,
that I began to notice the effects of my
hard work The blood would rush from my
heart into my head, and almost make me
faint. l felt that my strength was on the
wane, and my entire system seemed to be
out of order. Strong as / was ! would feel
weak. was nervous, and felt distressed
not only in body, but in mind as well. w hen
I awoke in the morning I dreaded to think
of the hard days work which was ahead of
me. My footsteps were not as light and
wretched. Ny appetite always strong,
vigorous and healthy before, seemed to be
deserting me- I could not sleep well. and

TALKS UP KANSAS.
George NJ. Noble in Washington, Says
Wildcat Era is Over.

The following interview with George NJ.
Noble appeared this week in the Wash
ington Post:
THE biggest apple orchard in the world
is in Kansas. It comprises 1 300 acres,
and in a single season the crop of ap-
pies thereon has brought the owner $4Q-
900. Kansas people are beginning to get
a large revenue from such by-products
of the land. A few years ago there was
little or no money from a source that
now brings in millions-the dairy and
poultry business. These industries are
now conducted on scientific principles,
and are being taken hold of by college
bred men with special training. The state
is enjoying an era of wonderful prosper

been exaggerated. The farmers have

property.

trifie compared with the tremendous sums
let out. Where loss did result it was
generally on the part of individuals who

a solid basis of loans, since they have,
even when foreclosure was resorted to,
more than squared the Indebtedness. I
don't think we will ever again have such
a boom time in Kansas as occurred in
1887, when 2000 miles of railway were
built within state lines, and every town
thought it was singled out by destiny for
a metropolis Such an experience, how
ever bitter. is not without its salutary
lessons. The wildcat era is ended, and
