A celebrated musical critic was re.
GENTLY married in church, and after the
ceremony, as the wedding procession
marched down the aisle, the organist
played the wedding march from "Lo-
hengrin." When near the door, the
bridegroom stopped in the march and
addressed the wondering assembly thus !:
II know am committing a breach
Of etiquette ss well as propriety in do,
ing this, but am not to blame. It is
my mental organization which has be-
come ineffably sensitive by reason of
the critical nature Of my duties
Then he drew from the pocket of his
dress coat we'll thumbed copy of the
score of "Lohengrin. Opening it at
the march, he went over to the organist
and eaid:
"What offended my ear was the fact
that in the seventeenth bar Of the da
oapo passage you fatted very badly,
and in the andante movement you
slurred the appoggiatura. Now" put
ting his finger upon the passage, "let
as try that again."
Once more the organ pealed forth,
and this time the player, conscious that
the great critic was listening to him,
accomplished his duty with credit to
himself and to the great satisfaction Of
the critic.-Pick Me Up.

If you have even little money laid
by it may be you cannot afford to long,
or pay rent for farm. While lands are
80 low it may be the wise thing to ven-
ture on your own account, and be all
the more saving for few years. If un-
usual misfortune visit you there will be
but little doubt that you can so sell as to
save the investment made; yet there
are two sides to the! debt question, for
debt often robs us of both peace and
hope. In any event, 1t is better to be
content with . small farm than to
possess acres for which We must heavily
bond our future. Better to be hsppy
now than to have visions of riches and
ease In the future only.

A wilted cutting of plant will glow
less vigorously than one not wilted; 9
perfectly ripe potato, unless kept in
cold storage, will soon begin to wilt,
losing its moisture, leaving the tubel
shruken, and less fit for seeding pur.
poses. This is not the case with the
potato which has not reached full ripe
ness. but it will return its moisture,
be brittle and in just the condition to
give its sprouts a strong growth and
produce thrifty crop.

effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe-

Gambling Cases.

The cases against Fatty Oswald and

menced in the district court Saturday
morning The forenoon was put IN
arguing motions and getting a jury
Several counts were thrown out by the
court but they were held for trial on
three. Something sensational seemed
to be expected, and the court room filed
to overlooking soon after the witnesses
were put on the stand.
The first witness was a colored por-
ter VINO was to give "expert testimony"
about shooting craps He knew good
deal about shooting craps in Colorado,
nut mighty little about it in Kansas.
Three boys and young men from South
Hutchinson, Hamilton, Guthrie and
Grandon, gave direct and positive
testimony against the defendants,
claiming they had bought "chips" from
them and wageled them on the dice.
This evidence would seem to be very
difficult to overcome or refute.
The trial was concluded Monday af-
ternoOn and the jury brought in ver-
dict of guilty on two counts each.
