FAST DAY.

Yesterday was partially cloudy at times
and at Others sunny, with raw east
wind.
Many people availed themselves of the
day to visit their cottages at the islands,
others went Maying to the Cape and
Westbrook, and brought back large
punches of May flowers, and others en-
joyed spins on their wheels.
The stores were generally closed, and
the quiet of Sunday prevailed in the city.
The county and city offices were all
closed for the day.

The Apology is Accepted.

In response TO the REGISTERS de-
mand to be sighted" the Humboldt
Union specifies that when 1t said that
our Log Rolling crowd "was far toe
large for such a city to handle with
credit to herself or comfort TO her
VISITORS" it merely meant that the
dust and the heat and the big crowd
made II uncomfortable for the visitors,
and "did not mean to detract from
Iola's crowd, or her heroic attempt to
care for such an out.pouring OF
people," As lola could help neither
the heat nor the crowd nor the dust,
and as the Union is now willing to
concede that lola made "heroic
efforts" to handle the crowd which
must certainly have been to her
credit, and which every body except
the Union seemed to take pleasure in
saying was to her credit, the apology
will be accepted.

the largest percentage were new

much increased attendance over last

The faculty had it's first meeting

an exhausting number of petitions
from students for special work.

Report Of the Opening Exercises and Other
Notes OF Interest.
Lawrence, Sept. o.
The annual address at the opening
of the Kansas State University was
given here this morning Ly Hon,
Angelo c. Scott, of Oklahoma Terri
tory. After the invocation by the
Rev. G. ID. Rogers, of Lawrence,
Chancellor Snow greeted the students
and introduced the speaker, Mr..
Scott, the theme of whose address
was Service
II am we'll persuaded" said Mr..
Scott, THAT the greatest thought in
the world is that of service. / do not
choose the word altruism but the
simple word service"
After paying some tribute to SER
vice and those who have served, he
said that one of the first requirements
OF man who serves we'll is that he
be physically strong. Any religion
that crucities the flesh is a bias
phemy. This body is a trust to be
guarded as sacredly as any holy grail
of old and it is immoral and ire.
ligious to defile or pollute 1t in any
way" Physical training in colleges
does much, he thinks, to make sound
men and women. "The choosing of
ones occupation" the speaker held
sis right as inviolable as that of
choosing wife or husband" And
he also held that man should turn
back in his course, if he found he
had chosen unwisely. 1.-The world
is far richer for the man who has
turned back" And he followed with
an eloquent tribute to the men, who
have left the pillow for the senate, and
one who from being the simple rail-
splitter became the "Great Enamel
pator."
The occupation chosen, a man
should learn the efficacy of labor.
Edison himself said that success in
life depended not 80 much on inspira
ton as on Precipitation. "And now
especially as to your work here frorn
one who perhaps has learned some-
thing from twenty-years course in
the world-it is common for students
to assert of extra specialization THAT
is the thing stand here to com bat
1t and l was never more sure of my
vantage ground. In my mind the
higher education is also the broader
education. The plea of the special
education is the plea of the almighty
dollar. The plea of the broader edu-
cation is the plea of the higher life.
Specialization is great thing as
money getter, as world builder,
only let 1t be preceded by the broader
education"
Mr.. Scott then spoke of the oppor-

months she lost twenty three pounds.
I'VE did everything possible for her,
and she had the best OF medical treatment.
Several skilled physicians attended
her, bot no benefit was apparent.
"a family friend visiting Us, told how
her daughter had been similarly affected,
bot cured by Dr.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People.
"She urged Us to try the pills, and we
finally consented.
1--WE have always rejoieed that we did.
The pills helped Lucy at once, and
after taking eight boxes she was entirely
cured.
"She is now In perfect health, strong,
weighs ten pounds more than ever before,
and her checks are foil Of color.
Two years Of schooling were missed
on account OF i'll health, but now she can
crafty her ambition to study and become
an educated woman"
The reason that DR.. Williams Pink Pills
TOR Pale People were helpful IN the above
case, is that they are composed Of vegeta-
bic remedies which act directly on the
impure blood, the foundation OF disease.
AS the blood rushes through all parts
OF the body, the eonveyer Of good or bad
health, 1t Is necessary that II should be
pure, rich and red.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills build Up the
blood by supplying its life giving elements
which nourishes the various organs, slim
ulating them to activity in the perform
ance OF their functions and thus drives
disease from the system.
he pills are in universal demand and
sold by all druggists.

About Oswego College.

During the past few weeks we have
had several inquiries concerning Ost
wego College at Oswego, Kansas, and
the time of Its opening. We are Off
cially authorized to say the College
will open in two weeks with the full
number of experienced professors and
teachers in the faculty, and with
brighter prospects for large number
of students, and a more successful
year than ever before.
The departments of Music, Voice,
Language, Preparatory, Science, Art
ana Elocution will be specially strong
and worry of the fullest confidence.
The expense for students of Kansas
will be much less than for the same
advantages at schools located farther
away than Oswego, because 100000
will pay tor Tuition, Board, Light,
Laundry, Heat, etc, in this College;
whereas nearly double that amount
will be spent II daughter is sent
to school in which the students
come from wealthy homes and large
cities.
Oswego College is located on high
table land, 100 feet above the beauti-
full Neosho River, and not single
student left last year on account of
Ill health.

bottle of "red-eye" for a compass and
its steered him right up against the
railing of the bridge in front of w. H.

crashed in, the young man spilled out
and the bridge stood on. 1t was only
"a block to Harris livery barn and the
youth went there and got new rig.

HE TAKES 1T PAY.

How a Dickinson County Man Wins Out
at Farming.
From the Abilene Reflector.
Charles Kubach brought in some
samples of corn from his farm south
west Of the city today. They are long
solid, and well filed, and the 100 acre
field will yield from forty toRfifty
bushels per acre-and this not good
corn year either. Mr.. Kabach says 1t
lie because of manner In which he
planted 1t. He first listed the ground
ten inches deep; then, with elk
horse team, he ran q subsoil pillow in
the bottom Of the lister furrow sixteen
inches deep, stirring up the ground q
total of twenty-six inches. After 1t
had settled he planted corn with a
one horse drill and has worked 1t next
with a barrow. AS a result the corn
roots have gone down two feet deep
and the stalks have stood rank and
green throughout the summer.
Fields across the road put in with a
lister which was run only six inches
deep have nothing but few nubbins,
showing that the tlllsge is responsible
for the big yield.
Mr.. Kubach bought the S60-acre
farm two years ago. 1t was run down
and losing money. He has applied
thorough methods of tillage and 1t
shows handsome balance. He has
in two seasons raised 10000 bushels of
wheat and 5000 bushels of corn on it
and has fed a large amount of stock
that has paid handsome profit. The
right kind OF farming pays.

The other day Harry Sleeper re-

safe box and papers stolen from his
safe on Sept. /, had been found In
one of the coaches of the special
which ran to Cherryvale about IL
p. m. Whether or not any of the
valuable papers were recovered has
not been learned. The Sleeper rob-
berry, the Pennsylvania robbery and
the robbery at Joplin, Mo-, are all
supposed to have been done by q
couple of smooth Chicago crooks
whom Chas. White recognized on the
train. Charlie Is Pinkerton de-
tective and he knew the gentlemen,
but he failed to warn the local police
In time to avert trouble. 1t is to be

both be taken.
