Owing to Il misunderstanding be-
tween the state and county commit
tees the meeting of Attorney Gen
eral Dawes was not well advertised,
but fair sized audience attended the
meeting in the court house last FRI
day evening and listened to an able
address. He said the issues this year
are of a national character, and criti-
ciSed the state administration and
the Kansas Populist delegation in
congress for their ficentiouS actions
and utterances against the manner in
which the war with Spain has been
prosecuted. He scored the state Off
cials for their false and bogus claims
in the matter of economy in the adj
miniStration of state affairs. He
claimed that insurance is higher now
than when the POpulistS went into
fpower. His speech was well received.

For Sale by Jones & Gibson.

/ wish some of those people who
think there is no fruit in western
Kansas could see Uncle Sammy
Longs fruit orchard near Quinter. 1t
is the first time / have had the pleas
ure of visiting fruit orchard in
western Kansas. / hear there are
others. As / stood looking at that
fine two-Story brick house surrounded
by trees and such a thrifty garden by
the side of it L felt as though some
invisible fairy had waited me to some
tropical cline where we had the pure
bracing air of Kansas. i could only
repeat to myself as l thought of the
number of years it took those trees to
develope. All this in droughty,
blighted, starving Kansas. 1t is such
thrift as this that has at last forced
the world to recognize something of
the true merit of our beloved state.
L never anywhere saw trees so laden
with fruit as were those peach trees.
The branches were bending to the
ground with the weight. 1t is not an
especially favored place. 1t is on a
high divide about five miles west of
-Collyer. The brick made only mile
from there resembles fine Philadel-
phia brick. n. ID.

Impatient Man Trapped and Held Twenty
Minutes by Tbeater Chair.

From the Kansas City Times.
There is one man in Kansas City VINO
will never again be SO anxious tn get
out of a theater that he will try To
climb over the seats. This man was at
the matinee at the Grand yesterday
afternoon. and when he had stood on
one foot for 20 minutes, with the other
foot securely fastened in the seat upon
which he had stepped in his wild desire
to get out ahead of the man In front of
him, he made a mental resolve that the
next time he would bide his time. 1t
required the combined efforts of L. men
including Stage Carpenter Lyman. who
acted as foreman. to eXtricate the rash
individual and hammer. "A saw and a
screw driver had To he brought into
play before the prisoner Was released
The man sat well down in the or
chestra chairs, and as soon as the cur
tain dropped on the last act of I'm old
Kentucky he began to figure on get
Ting out before the people who sat six
rows behind him. His first move was
to forget all the laws of propriety ard
step on his seat I'm order to climb over
behind ii. His second move was tn
stay just where he was. The seat, not
being made for step ladder, turned
with him. and his left foot Slipped
down between the iron work at the
