THE OLD AND THE NEW.

John F.. Ireland's four years sem
tence to solitary confinement at hard
labor ended at seven O'Clock Thurs
day evening and II. l.. Henderson's
sentence of similar term and nature
began. In other words Mr.. Ireland's
service as postmaster of lola ceased
and MI. Henderson, commenced; and
both received, apparently with equal
pleasure, the congratulations of their
friends.
Mr.. Ireland has made splendid
postmaster. The REGISTER has made
that remark before, and it has heard
it mentioned by scores of others.
While appointed as a Democrat, he
has conducted the office as If there
was no such thing as a political
party in the country. The REGISTER
feels PECULIARLY qualified to speak
on this topic because in addition to
being an the other side of the political
fence, 1t probably tries the patience of
the postmaster oftener than any other
patron, and it has been treated at all
times with unfailiDg courtesy, receiv-
ing many times indeed special iavors
that it had no right to expect or de-
mand. If Mr.. Ireland lives long
enough for the Democratic party to
get into power again and wants the
postoffice, he can get the REGISTER
on his petition without half trying
The appointment of Mr.. II. l.. Hen
dereon to succeed Mr. Ireland has
been generally commented on as the
very best that could have been made,
aud he enters upon his new duties
with the good will Ofall the patrOns OF
the Office and with the confidence OF
the people and the REGISTER does
not doubt that his administration
of the Office will retain for him this
good will and justify the confidence,
Mr.. Ireland will not be in a hurry
about getting into business. He says
his wife has at least q months job
laid out for him down around the
yard" and after that he will take
a vacation.
Mr., Henderson's real estate and in
surname business will be looked after
by his son, John H., and his partner,
Mr.. Powell,

THE FOURTH or JULY.

In one of Alphonse Daudet's charm
ing stories OF Provence there is an ex-
cita BILE little Frenchman who, on all
public occasions of unusual interest or
excitement, ran about among the
crowds shouting, Let us make n
noisel Let us make noisel"
This is the day when the Great
American People make Noise. The
Noise begins very early in the morn
ing and 1t lasts until very late at
night. 1t has No articulate speech
and yet it conveys to all who hear 1t
very distinct meaning. 'Here Is
Nation" the Noise says, "a Nation
brought forth in blood and tears, nur-
tured in the hard lap of poverty, tried
and strengthened by foreign and do
mestic wars, grow 4 at last to might
and majesty and power" Here is
Nation" the Noise sage, free and
confident and strong, whose shining
sword has never been drawn in dis
honor nor shesthed in defeat, which
has never sought q quarrel nor avoid
ed one" Here is a Nation" save
the Noise, (which guarantees to all
her sons and daughters equal privi-
leges and equal rights, which meas
uree its rewards by merits and not by
birth, which loves freedom and hates
oppression, which has sent succor in
lavish abundance to the destitute OF
every land on which the sun shines,
which is pouring out its blood and
treasure now in cause which is not
it's own but Freedom's.n Here is a
Nation" says the Noise, (which com.
mands the passionate devotion of all
her sons, for the perpetuation and
preservation Oh WHICH ana lOT WDOet
dignity and glory and honor we here
and now, as did our Fathers of old
pledge our lives, our fortune and oul
sacred honor"
So let the Flag float every where to
day. The Flag which is the option,
of all this glorious history, the sym
Dol OF all this might and majesty
the guarantee of these sacred rights
the prophecy of the golden future
The brave Flag which has flashed

The 18th at Humboldt.

In spite of but twO weeks prepare
ton and park spoiled by high
water, Humboldt had one of the most
successful celebrations she has ever
held The day was perfect, and
wagons and buggies began coming
in at o'clock in the morning. Large
delegations drove in from Yates Cen
ter, Chanute, Elsmore, Moran and
Ssvonb burg, and every train added to
the crowd.
The procession while not so long
as last years parade, made up for
II in the beauty of the floats. The
band was resplendent in their new
uniforms and they played ne they
never played before. Their music
was all new and included Dewey's
march and the Bsttle.ship March
with gun chorus. The flag drill by
young ladies, drilled by Mrs. A. II
Newton, was beautiful in lite pre-
cision. The GRAFTON by Rev. f. w
Fem was eloquent and the news o
Ssmpson's victory which he read wst
received with loud cheers and thank
full hearts.
1t was impossible to have the races
but the creased pig and pole climb
ing were IN evidence in the alter
noon, and everyone enjoyed them
selves so well that they stayed fo
the fireworks and the ball in tn
evening.

Her cabins, decked with silken stuffs,
Were slowed with fittings rare

Hurled fourteen hundred singing shots,
Each aimed for victory,
Where vicious Furor and Pluton

Has them bottled up" again.

There was very little drinking or
carousing in Humboldt yesterday but
the day was ssddened by the most
dastsrdly crime ever perpetrated in
Humboldt. a young tough named
Bell, who runs hardware store with
his brothers in Chanuto, was stand
ing on the street near Redfield's in the
evening and made sn insulting re-
mark to two young girls who were
passing by. Byron Cushman was
standing near, and hearing his re-
mark, reproved him for it. Without
a word Bell turned and fired at Cush
man with a revolver which he had
concealed in his pocket. The shot en-
tered the left side, lodging in the in
testines. The report was so slight
that those standing near thought ii
was nothing but a firecracker and be-
fore they realized what had happened
the murderer had escaped. Cushman
was taken into a restaurant, and af-
terward to hie home, where he died
at noon. 1t Is reported that hell was
arrested at Winfield.

Byron Cushman Shot.

Joseph Bell shot and mortally
wounded Byron Cushmsn at Hum.
boldt July 4th. The shooting took
place at the Santa Fe depot and was
done out of pure drunken wantoness.
After the days celebration proper
had closed, Cushmsn and lot other
Humboldt people accompanied the
Cbanute delegation to the train, which
leaves for Chanute about 800 a. m.
Joseph Bell was in the crowd and
was pretty drunk. He had a revolver
with him and in the i'm becelitv born
of drink, drew II and pointed it at diff
ferent people about him. He finally
aimed at Cushman and fired. The
wounded man fell on the platform and
was cared for by his friends who took
him home and summoned medical
assistance. He fingered IN an uncon-
scious condition until noon today
when he died.
Joseph Bell, the homicide, is the
son of a prominent hard ware mer-
chant of Chanute and the awful crime
with whi:h his soul is blackened to-
day was not all due to a murderous or
vicious disposition, but to the liquor
which he imbibed during the day.
Byron Cushman is widely known and
and liked and sorrow is universal
over his taking off. He was bro h
err Of Mrs. VIII Bartels of lola and
was well known here. The shudder,
grief and horrer of the young murder
er's family is doubtless much more
severe and hard to bear.
Bell skipped out Immediately after
the shooting, and, aided by the dark
ness and the fright and horror of the
crowd, made good his escape.
Later:-Word comes on good au-
thority that Bell WAS captured at
Neodesha.

Two Pointed Questions Answered.

What is the use of making a better
article than your competitor If you
cannot get a better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in
the price the public will buy only the
better, SO that while our profits may
be smaller on a single sale they will
be much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to
know your make is the best?
Ans.-If both articles are brought
prominently before the public both
are certain to be tried, and the pub
lie will very quickly pass Judgment
on them and use only-the better one.
This explains the large sale OF
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. The
people have been using it for years

sionally take up with some fashion
