Dead Corporations in Kansas

When the work of making a list Of

School Troubles.

The school board for the Milan dis

en- Mclaughlin Saturday that the
charges flied against l. E. Sabin, prin-
cipal Of The Milan schools, bad been
proven untrue and Prof. Sabin will
be allowed to hold his position. The
charges against the principal were
plainneSS of speech in teaching physi-
0lOgy and anatomy.
The trouble was the outgrOwth of a
fight for the principalShip of the
Milan schools begun last summer.
Sabin WIS chosen for the position as

Sabin. They were found to be untrue
and very silly, and the professor was
eXOnerated.

The Conway Springs schools are
having trouble with their principal,
Prof. E. NJ. HolliDgsworth. The
charge against him is that he is lax
in discipline. From the complaints
that have reached the county superin-
tendent, it appears that Prof. HOl
lingSworth is more disposed to let the
young American gamins under his
harge have free aud undisputed right
0f way in the schools rather than en-
force a dignifed discipline with the
aid of the birch. Complaint against
the principal was made by Alva Clapp,
a member Of the school board. The
board met and requested Prof. Hol-
lingswOrth to resign after the expra-
tion of two months. The professor
doesn't want to resign, but has re-
ceived an iatuitiOn that he will be
kicked out, and is looking up the law
TO see if his contract with the school
board will not compel the district to
pay him the full amount of his salary
for the term for which he was hired.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

the diseased portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and that is by con-

iniamed you have rumbling sound or i'm

Another SwindIe

va sWiuule' IS 0elng success
July worked on the farmers of Sedg-
WICK county, which will probably be
introduced in this county very soon.
The Eagle tells of a victims expert
ence as follows:
Yesterday Fred Wilkerson, who
lives six miles east of DOld's packing
house, came to town to see what could
be done to relieve him from contract
he had made relative to oats. 1t is
the same old story with incidenta.
new features. The slick man with
his wares called upon Mr.. Wilkerson
and wanted to sell some oats. Appar
emily the oats were no mvre in quality
than those that grow upon any Scdg-
wick county farm, but the 1Ikir
painted them. He printed them to
be larger, sturdy, not affected by early
dry spells, sure and heavy yielders,
always marketable at premium,
proof against vermin Of every I'D
They were wonderful oats. The ak
IRIS rhetoric was a sort of AllaGin's
lamp, delusiOn. He built up a mir
age of profit aud fguTatively put the
farmer into possession Of soft snap,
a veritabls agricultural Klondike.
Mr.. WllkeTson bought half a buShel
of the oats. He signed contract
which he supposed was nothing more
than an agreement whereby he was
to receive at harvest one dollar per
bushel for all the crop from this par
ticu'ar half buShel that he cared to
NdiSpOse OF.
~ A half bushel Of oats will seed
scantily half an acre, and on Sedg-
wick county farm will yield in an av-
erage season 20 bushels. But The
fakir'S oats of half a bushel measure
was to seed lavishly one acre Of ground
and yied not less than 80 bushels. Of
course the farmer could feed his eiguty
bushels if he wanted to or SOW them
the following year, but 10 order to
show Mr.. WilkerSOn that he was in
good faith the fakir agreed to buy all
the product at one dollar per bushel if
the farmer so desired.
Mr., WlIkerson bought the oats. He
paid s. for a half bushel. He DIDN'T
have to agree to sell the yield, but
tue agent must report to his company,
which wds denOminated "The Kansas
City Cereal and Agricultural Supply
Company" Just what amount would
be shipped in by each man. He signed
an agreement to deliver % bushels.
The farmer felt greatly elated for a
day or two. The fakr had promised
to sell n more oats in that township
He didn't, and his promise was prob
ably unnecessary. But the farmer
was to have the sole agency and no
man ia any other township was to
have more than half a bushel.
He studied over the matter some
and got uneasy. Yesterday he came
to town 10 ascertain the commercial
standing and reliability of "The Kan
SaS City Cereal aud Agricultural Sup
ply Company" He learned that there
wasn't any such company and never
had been-nOt in Kansas City. He is
now afraid that the agreement will
turn out TO be note. 1t probably
will. Farmers and business men will
some day learn that home industry
is a mighty good thing to patronize.
